The Lone Gunman DVD - Pilot aired in March 2001 had 9-11 plot

[NAO]

"The Lone Gunman" - a spin-off of "The X-Files", aired it's pilot episode on March 4, 2001. (FYI, the Lone Gunman were those three eccentric conspiracy researchers that were always about 6 months ahead of FBI agents Sculley and Mulder in the show "The X-Files".)

In the Lone Gunman Pilot episode, (original air-date 03/04/01) they uncover a government plot to crash an airliner into the WTC. The motive for doing this is...(direct quote from the dialog):

"The Cold War's over, John. But with no clear enemy to stock pile against, the arms market's flat.

But bring down a fully-loaded 727 into the middle of New York City;

you'll find a dozen tin-pot dictators all over the world, just clamoring to take responsibility. And begging to be smart bombed."

This show was aired in prime-time on FOX and had fairly high ratings. Yet no one mentioned it at all until months after 9/11. It seems like it should have been a major topic of discussion, with the news reporting on how this scenario had been portrayed in a prime-time show just six months earlier.

You can view an extended trailer for the pilot episode, with all the pertinent dialog about the neo-con faction planning to crash a full loaded 747, with no bombs or dangerous goods aboard, but with 16 thousand pounds of jet fuel, into the World Trade Center.

1. So this was written at least a year or two before 9/11/2001. Hey Condi!

See, some people could imagine using commercial airplanes as missiles!

10. Even worse, Red Storm Rising is from 1986

This Tom Clancy novel opens with a plane crashing into the Capitol. The book was a bestseller. So, Condi, as usual, was telling a huge lie.

2. Oh now there would be a fun DVD to watch

with tthe Freep-In-Laws. More than a little discomfort I'm sure.

3. Freep-In-Laws. I love it!

4. Reckon this might explain it being cancelled so quickly?

Or is that just another 'Lone Guman' conspiracy theory?

9. That's why they had to die....

(If they really did.)

5. This is from 2002

The video file is encoded with a 2002 copyright date.

6. That may be when they encoded it to DVD

But I definitely remember the episode airing before it was reproduced for reality by Reichstag II /Northwoods productions.

7. It looks really good

It looks good. I never knew about this show.

8. The Pilot aired March 4, 2001. All the episodes aired before Summer 2001

The copyright stamp might refer to the commercial packaging, although the DVD set was not available until March 31, 2005.

Possibly somebody's rip of the trailer was done in 2002, but the show definitely aired in March 2001.

The shows producer talks about how the show foreshadowed 9-11 in an article here:
