One example of X-Files humour I liked is when the agents discover a corpse literally burned in half. Scully asks if they should arrest David Blaine, to which Mulder replies in deathly serious tones, "Yes. Yes, we should. But not for this."
Another is a little moment when Scully has to autopsy a completely invisible body. She gets the idea to stipple blue powder paint (or something similar) onto the corpse so she can at least see it; as I recall, she's doubtful that it's even there. She dabs on the first brushful and is fascinated by part of the face being picked out. After that, she has a rare old time dabbing the stuff on. No dialogue, just pure performance and it's delightful.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
