The X-Files was known back in the '90s for everything from alien conspiracies to crackling chemistry between co-stars to the theme song that was then (and still is) easy to whistle along with. Now, the Fox drama is coming to another streaming platform to continue its legacy in the 2026 TV schedule, in a way that has nothing to do with Ryan Coogler's potential reboot. The full run is coming to Pluto TV, which means a whole lot of monsters, aliens, and mysteries streaming for free in the new year.
Starting on January 1, all eleven seasons of The X-Files will be available free on-demand, as well as streaming on a dedicated 24/7 linear channel as part of Pluto TV's Sci-Fi category. It will join other dedicated channels in the genre, including Doctor Who, Star Trek, and The Twilight Zone. The channel will begin with a chronological run of all 218 episodes across the eleven seasons, with curated weekend marathons to follow.
