x-files: "mulder and scully meet the weremonster"

[iainpj]

That was possibly the x-filesest x-file that ever xfiled. And a surprising amount of fun, if you ignore the whole thing with, what, seven, eight, nine dead people.

Started with a nice little callback to "War of the Coprophages" and "Quagmire" with Stoner Dude and Dudette, who appear to have spent the past 20 years being high. Not getting high,

I've just binge-watched the last three episodes, and this on is one of the best in the history of the series. All the things you said, plus did you catch the shout out to Darrin McGavin's Kolchak costume in what Guy was wearing? I think the Three Wishes episode remains my favorite, but this may be No. 2.

It's also hard to believe they went from something as good as this to the trite bigotry of Babylon two episodes later (though I admit I enjoyed the subversiveness of the Pieta image for the Islamofascist terrorist and his mother in the boat).
