Morgan worked in tons of in-jokes and Easter eggs into the episode, Mulder and Scully are as riveting and hilarious as ever, and Guy Man's understanding of what it means to be human is both hilarious and disturbingly accurate. As for the murders, they were all done by a regular man, and the “monster” Guy Man was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. The twist is, said monster is a lizard-creature, who was bitten by a human and thus turns into one during the day. Written and directed by an X-Files veteran, Darin Morgan, this fantastic comedic episode revolves around mysterious killings seemingly perpetrated by a were-monster. RELATED: The 5 Best And 5 Worst Episodes Of The X-Files But while the first two episodes didn't impress, the third episode knocked it out of the park. When The X-Files came back in 2016, we were all skeptical about the show’s ability to still deliver the kind of entertainment we got from it throughout the original nine-season run. 6 MULDER AND SCULLY MEET THE WERE-MONSTER (SEASON 10, EPISODE 3) The format, while unorthodox makes, the comedic moments even funnier, Mulder and Scully's dynamic is flawless, and who can forget line's Scully’s creepy “because the FBI has nothing to hide”, or Mulder's "I don't think it's live television, Scully. “X-Cops” is weird, at times a bit spooky, but above all it's hilarious. The alleged monster is quite interesting as well because it transforms into the mortal fear of the person it attacks, so everyone who encounters it inevitably gives a different description, including one person who described Freddy Krueger. Still, it’s Mulder who embraces the popularity, while Scully is characteristically annoyed by the camera crew, resulting in some pretty hilarious scenes. Mulder has wild theories (he thinks it’s a werewolf), while his skeptical partner fears how people who aren’t used to his spooky theories will react. Mulder and Scully are joined by local cops, and the camera crew, as they hunt the monster. The episode is presented in the format of any other Cops episode, only with Mulder and Scully at the center of the investigation into an alleged monster that’s been terrorizing a neighborhood in LA. This special season seven episode is a fictional crossover between The X-Files and the reality television program Cops. The moment the real Mulder breaks down Scully's door just in time to stop the kiss is always hilarious. Things get even crazier when Van Blundht transforms into Mulder, goes to work as an FBI agent, and tries to seduce Scully.

Naturally, all kinds of hilarious shenanigans ensue as Mulder and Scully chase after a suspect who can literally be anyone. As it turns out, the reason they don’t is Van Blundht can physically transform himself into anyone. However, none of the women have any recollection of having sexual relations with him. Mulder and Scully rather quickly arrest a suspect, a janitor named Eddie Van Blundht, who is proven to be the father of all five babies.

She tells Mulder and Scully that Luke Skywalker is the baby daddy, prompting Scully to ask the best question anyone’s ever asked in an interrogation: “did he have a lightsaber?” And that’s just the beginning of the episode. When Mulder and Scully arrive in a small town in West Virginia where five babies have recently been born with tails, they interrogate one of the mothers who straight up tells them that the father of her baby is from another planet. 9 DREAMLAND I & II (SEASON 6, EPISODE 4 & 5)Ĭoming in late season four, “Small Potatoes” has one of X-Files most bonkers and hilarious interrogations ever. Scully’s giddiness over the invisible man, Mulder’s exasperated “oh” when Scully for the umptieth time refuses to believe her own eyes, the various misfortunate outcomes of the wishes, and, of course, Mulder’s three wishes. While it may never rank among the top ten or twenty greatest X-Files episodes of all time, this story about a somewhat mean-spirited genie certainly has memorable and hilarious comedic moments. “Je Souhaite” was the last stand-alone episode prior to David Duchovny’s departure from the show, which is probably why there's so much freaky, weird, and wonderful stuffed in forty-five minutes. Hell, Mulder makes the entire population of Earth disappear for an hour, and it’s no big deal. Embracing the weirdness of the world that The X-Files has created, Gilligan wrote an episode in which a man becomes invisible, gets hit by a bus, and wanders out of a locked morgue, and it’s no big deal. Penned by Vince Gilligan, the season seven episode “Je Souhaite” revolves around an ancient genie who causes trouble due to her master’s poorly thought out wishes.
