Gordon and Gansa then began a two year deal with Witt-Thomas Productions during which they produced several pilots. "Country Estates", a pilot produced for ABC caught the attention of Chris Carter who invited them to join THE X-FILES as Supervising Producers. Gansa departed from the series to pursue independent projects. Gordon departed from the series in 1997 to pursue other projects.

After several freelance assignments for the ABC series "Spenser For Hire," the team joined the Emmy-nominated series "Beauty and the Beast" as staff writers, and were later named producers.
