As part of the Paley Center’s anniversary X-Files Panel, Duchovny and Anderson hopped on Reddit to participate in one of the site’s AMA (Ask Me Anything) threads. (Or, in this case — Ask Us Anything).
One Reddit user wondered which “monster-of-the-week” episode was the actors’ favorite.
Duchovny answered that query: “My favorite would be Flukeman.” The actor was referring to the X-Files Season 2 episode titled “The Host,” which told the story of a horrifying man-sized worm who lurked in the sewers. However, Duchovny loves that X-Files “monster-of-the-week” episode for a very specific reason.
One of the show’s writers was originally cast as the season 2 monster known as ‘Flukeman’
“Darin Morgan was in the suit, one of our great writers,” Duchovny revealed on the Reddit AMA about the worm-creature.
However, Morgan’s fluke-monster makeup was so heavy — and it took up so much time — Duchovny never knew what Morgan looked like when were filming “The Host.”
