This episode is great all around, but I genuinely think what makes Were Monster one of the, if not the absolute, best of the revival is just the fact it's Mulder at his most Middle Aged Dad™️...
Well, that and the cunty trans woman. I mean, the one that isn't Mulder.

I absolutely ADORE “Mulder & Scully meet the Were Monster” and here is why:
- truly a monster of the week episode which I love
- the comedy of it (reminds me of Bad Blood)
- the existential dread Mulder is facing
- Mulder having the theme song as his ring tone
- the subversion of the were-wolf trope
- the whole “actually the way society is going sucks” and everything that Guy was saying about these “urges” that humans have
- the dedications on the tombstones to the real people we lost
- Scully mentioning Queequeg and stealing adopting another dog
- Scully mentioning she is immortal
- “The internet is not good for you” and the whole smartphone thing is just… so good and feels accurate and silly at the same time
- the trans representation (i don’t think it aged exceptionally well but it’s there and it could be so much worse)
- “that’s how i like my mulder”
- Scully so obviously enjoying herself
- “I think my phone is not working correctly because guys don’t send me pictures of their junk” (I’m paraphrasing i think but yeah, all of this)
- Scully.
Thanks for coming to my ted talk

Mulder and Scully meet the Were-Monster is everything I have ever wanted oh my GOD it’s so stupid. Darin Morgan episode. References to literally every other Darin Morgan episode. Rhys Darby jumpscare. Mulder doesn’t know how to use a phone. Scully is leading the investigation. The greatest lines of dialogue I’ve ever heard.

X-Files casting director: Mr Darby, we want you to be in The X-Files playing a cryptid, but can you lose the moustache? We don’t think it fits with the character.
Rhys Darby: yeah, I can lose the moustache! I can lose the shirt if you want!
X-Files casting director: …
X-Files casting director: ok.
X-Files casting director: you can keep the moustache.

OK, sorry, but in “Mulder and Scully Meet the Were-Monster” Mulder being like “i’m not going to report you for being a peeping tom” is so OOC, like this gross dude could have been ogling his girl in her sleep, NOBODY TAKES ADVANTAGE OF MULDER’S GIRL

Minor Alternate Dialogue + Mulder notes: Mulder & Scully Meet The Were-Monster
Scully: "Yeah... this is the way I like my Mulder."
A pause, as Mulder wasn't quite expecting that reaction.

Watching the X-Files is such a wild ride. You have the disappointment that is season 9, which did give the whole show a pretty good ending tho, then you have IWTB, which is truly a piece of shit movie if I've ever seen one, then you have the first two episodes of season 10 which give you more disappointment and then – then you finally get to see 'Mulder and Scully meet the Were-Monster' and it's SO rewarding. It's like coming home. It's so incredibly funny, it doesn't take itself serious one bit. Fucking fantastic.
