Back by popular demand, Fox premiered an exclusive promo of the iconic sci-fi/horror series. Twitter had lots to say about the revival of The X-Files, as paranormal investigators Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) are in, "Danger?"

As we previously mentioned,13 years have passed since FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully were on the TV screen solving weird and supernatural cases. The reboot of Fox's popular sci-fi series continues with an all-new 6 episode arc. Not only are the leads back to reprise their iconic roles, creator Chris Carter will takeover as showrunner for the franchise that launched his and many other careers.

As we mentioned before, on Monday night (September 28), Fox aired a two-part trailer for their sci-fi procedural/drama. Just days after the cast and crew made their way to New York Comic Con, Fox premiered a new animated promo during last night's Gotham episode. And now, new footage made its way onto television screens during the the fifth episode of Gotham.

According to TV Line, in the television spot, Mulder asks, ""What if our work, the X-files, everything we've been led to believe in is a lie?" There is also, "the gross visual of a creature/person peeling off its... face we guess? (again, unclear); and the sweet, familiar sound of the enigmatic Dana Scully introducing herself and her partner to someone new."

Check out what Twitter had to say:

@lizmitches tweets, "first the new star wars movie, then the x files AND GILMORE GIRLS IS ALSO COMING BAKC IM SO HAPPY"

@Sanetsays sees a familiar face, "@XFilesNews @thexfiles here's an unexplained phenomenon for #mulderandscully : Why hasn't Skinner aged at all?!! #XFiles"

@SeanBryant writes, "I am more stoked for @theXfiles trailer tonight than that other sci-fi trailer going around."
