The pilot for the Chris Carter created show Millinium aired on October 25, 1996. With over 17 million people watching, it set a record for viewership at the time. Fox allowed them to take three months to film the episode and pumped $10 million into the launch, including releasing it at some theaters. The show took place in the same universe as the X-Files (the series was concluded as an episode of the X-Files after being canceled). The show featured Lance Henriksen as Frank Black, a former FBI profiler, who had the ability to see through the mind of serial killers and had joined the mysterious Millinium Group.

The Millinium series finale aired on May 21, 1999. Like the Lone Gunmen, which was cancelled after one season, Millinium was allowed to finish its story on the X-Files with the episode titled "Millinium" that aired November 28, 1999. Millinium ran for 67 episodes. ("Good Bye To All That", Millinium, TV Event)
