Same days as Aeromar's flight out of McAllen, but with an ATR aircraft . In comparison with both Aeromar and Viva , seems cheaper to fly on Viva

Pretty cool. Why are the return flights double or triple the price though?

VivaAerobus' whole schtick is low fares.

Pretty cool. Why are the return flights double or triple the price though? They're not. The VivaAerobus website shows returns (HRL-MTY) for as low as:
$70 in May
$59 in June
$49 from July-December 2021 |

$49 from July-December 2021 Saw your reply on the other forum, so I will continue here:
VivaAerobus is a Mexican airline based in Monterrey, and is targeting people from Monterrey to get to the Valley, so the return is HRL-MTY.
If you're talking about MTY-HRL, then it's adjustment for demand. Fares will go up and down like any other airline. Just like the fares I listed above will go up and down.
