While there are likely many other connections between The X-Files and Sherlock Holmes than are found in “Fire,” none of these references should be very surprising to fans of Chris Carter.
In a 2013 interview, the X-Files creator revealed the surprising fact that he didn’t really like science fiction when growing up, preferring instead to read the stories of Jules Verne and Arthur Conan Doyle, especially Sherlock Holmes. He insisted that “both came into play” on his show, and “Fire” is proof of just how much he loved the world’s most famous detective.
