Fox heads Dana Walden and Gary Newman recently talked about some old favorite series that could be getting resurrected in the future.

Shows the duo have revealed they’re interested in reviving are The X-Files, the science fiction-horror series that starred David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, Prison Break, and 24. While more 24 will come as no great shock—the series just completed a successful 12-episode limited event return this past summer—the next run could be without Jack Bauer, played of course by Kiefer Sutherland.

Of The X-Files, Newman and Walden said:

And as for a Jack Bauer-less 24, Walden said:

This next installment of 24 has already been pitched as well, and the storyline comes complete with the option for Bauer to return should Sutherland, who has said he doesn’t see himself going back to the franchise, change his mind.

Prison Break seems the least likely of the three at the moment, but still a possibility according to Newman:

The cast and crew behind these shows are of course busy with other things these days—many of them working on shows for other networks such as Duchovny and Anderson, who are both working with NBC at the moment—so a revival of these series, if they do happen, will likely be a bit down the road unless Fox decides to do the 24 thing will all of them and follow new characters.

The biggest takeaway from all of this? Still not a peep about Firefly.
