What spin-off shows are there other than Lone Gunmen?

Just Millennium, I believe.

Millennium wasn't really a spin-off like The Lone Gunmen. They did have a Frank Black episode on the X-Files after Millennium had been cancelled.

I saw the Collectors seasons at my Costco today for $23.99 each. Sadly, I am currently putting up my 9 sealed thinpak seasons on ebay soon. I need the cash and I know it will be forever (if ever) before I find the time to watch 9 seasons of anything. My dvd backlog is just crazy.

Yeah, I should have been more clear. I was just referring to shows created by the same crew: CC, Glen Morgan etc.

Yeah "Millennium" was definitely not a spinoff. There were two high-profile CROSSOVERS (Jose Chung on "Millennium" and Frank & Jordan Black on "The X-Files") but when the show began there was no in-show connection to "The X-Files", those connections came later. There were also several minor, more "in-jokey" crossovers like Mulder & Scully visible in the background of FBI headquarters in one episode (in reality it was DD and GA's photo doubles), Peter Watts finding a Morley stub in Millennium Group headquarters, the same actor playing J. Edgar Hoover in FBI flashback episodes on both shows, etc.

I would really only count shows produced by Chris Carter's Ten Thirteen productions, and there were only four: "The X-Files", "Millennium", "Harsh Realm" and "The Lone Gunmen".

There were many notable people like Morgan & Wong and Frank Spotnitz that went on to make very Ten Thirteen-ish shows but that opens a huge can of worms because "X-Files" writers, producers and directors winded up working on practically every sci-fi drama on television.

Yeah, that's pretty much what I was referring to. I wasn't referring to the bad movies that were made by some of the writers. I should have thought out my post a little more I guess.
