At the height of both millennial angst and THE X-FILES's popularity, creator Chris Carter developed this cultish companion piece with star Lance Henriken specifically in mind. Who better to portray a hardened, grounded, and slightly more sobered approach to bizarre crime procedurals than that of the iconic Mulder and Scully? MILLENNIUM begins as what appears to be a gritty and gruesome crime investigation series, flirting with occult serial killers in the tradition of SEVEN. As the series moves into the tail end of it first season, however, its supernatural depth begins to unfold. Phenomenally gifted forensic profiler Frank Black (Henriksen) discovers the unnerving religious zealotry of his new employers, the Millenium Group, and encounters enemies such as an alleged Russian antichrist responsible for Chernobyl. What follows is a rather intense journey involving conspiracy and personal tragedy as wounded family man Black navigates a vibrantly complex cast of cops, special agents, and mysterious scientists. Although a bit weightier than its counterpart, MILLENNIUM shares many tonal similarities with THE X-FILES, including its hybrid episodic-serialized format. Featured here are all three seasons of MILLENNIUM, as well as the unofficial series finale that aired the following season as a crossover episode on THE X-FILES.
