The X-Files: 10 Things We Learned From Mulder And Scully Meet The Were-Monster

8. Darin Morgan Remains The Master Of Light-Hearted X-Files

Darin Morgan wrote some of the best light-hearted X-Files episodes during the series' original run, including Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose, which won Morgan an Emmy award for Outstanding Writing in a Drama Series (guest star Peter Boyle also won an Emmy for his work in the episode). Surprisingly, however, he did not write a single episode after 1996, and only wrote a small handful of outings, though he also worked as story editor for a couple of seasons, and appeared as the Flukeman, and Eddie Van Blundht in Small Potatoes. After leaving the show, he went on the produce a handful of episodes from series like Bionic Woman and Fringe, but The X-Files is what Morgan will always be best known for. So it's great to have him back - especially since, as writer and director of Mulder and Scully Meet the Were-Monster, he knocked it out of the park.
