It was the third day at New York Comic-Con when I sat down in the press section of huge two-level hall. Everyone was buzzing with excitement, wondering if the tenth season of The X-Files would live up to what they loved that ended on the small screen in 2002.

Before the screening, Kumail Nanjiani took the stage, letting everyone know that the screening would be first, followed by the panel discussion and Q&A that he would be moderating with stars David Duchovny (Fox Mulder) and Mitch Pileggi (Walter Skinner), as well as creator/executive producer Chris Carter, who also wrote and directed the episode we were about to see.

On Saturday, October 10th, the first press room at New York Comic Con I attended was for Shadowhunters on ABC Family. Shadowhunters,  which is based on The Mortal Instruments book series by Cassandra Clare, premieres January 12, 2016. Following is an exclusive video with the author and executive producer McG, as well as highlights from the interview, and of course photographs. Information about the series can be found at the end.

The Transporter Refueled, which is the fourth installment in the franchise, follows Frank Martin (Ed Skrein), who will transport anything on time if you follow his rules, for a price. When Martin receives a contract request from a woman to transport some packages, he gets more than he bargained for when he discovers the "packages" are two other women.

The women, who were part of a prostitution ring, not only want out, but are after revenge against their old boss. Martin gets sucked into their plans when the trio kidnaps his father (Ray Stevenson) to guarantee his help.

Tuesday ABC Family (soon to be Freeform) premieres it's new series Shadowhunters, based on the bestselling book series, The Mortal Instruments, by Cassandra Clare. The series takes place in modern day New York and follows Clary Fray, played by Katherine McNamara, who discovers that she is not who she thought was. There is a world hidden beyond our own that she has been made to forget. She comes from a family of Shadowhunters, half-human half-angel hybrid demon hunters. When her mother (Maxim Roy) is kidnapped, she, along with her best friend Simon (Alberto Rosende), are pulled into this new world. With the help of fellow Shadowhunters Jace (Dominic Sherwood), Isabelle (Emeraude Toubia), and Alec (Matthew Daddario), they must not only try to save her mother and recover her memories, but also stop demons and other supernatural creatures from destroying everything.

As a fan of the book series, and knowing that the story was previously released as a movie, I wasn't sure what to expect. Certain aspects for the series had been changed from the start - for example, the character of Luke (Isaiah Mustafa) is a detective in television show rather than a book store owner, which will I'm sure add a different spin. There are also some new characters coming to the series as well.
