Chris Carter, maker of the hit series “The X-Files” sued 20th Century Fox, accusing the studio of “screwing him out of millions of dollars in residuals related to the show’s profitable syndication agreement”.

“Fox’s TV production arm breached a 1998 contract with Carter (…) because the financial terms turned out to be ‘too favorable’ to the creator at the expense of the studio.”
