Re: Which characters did you love more than their writers did?

[(Anonymous)]

I will say with Scully that it depended on the writers to a certain degree. Most obviously Darin Morgan was excellent dealing with Scully and I think for him Scully was the center of the show and Mulder was his weird, psychotic sidekick. And Morgan & Wong episodes are generally very decent to Scully as well.

Yeah, Darin Morgan was probably the best writer the show had, even though he had next to no experience and only wrote like…three episodes? Four?

Morgan and Wong were probably second best, for me, though I’ve always been extremely ambivalent about Never Again, which was one of their eps.

Basically, I thin Chris Carter had a certain mindset about the dynamics of the show, and the rest of the writers wrote within those sensibilities. If it had been a more diverse writers room I think there probably would’ve been a shift in sensibilities over time, because as a group there would’ve been an environment that leaned into a more nuanced narrative. But with a bunch of largely straight, almost entirely white men, there was a degree of complacency to "staying inside the lines," even from the writers who would later go on to write some much, much stronger, smarter work elsewhere.
