I really like how Cooper is essentially being escorted by guardian angels.

Under the vegetable posted:I like her, but I like movie Donna more. I don't know if it's ever actually been confirmed why she left, I think it's just a lot of rumors. There's a few reasons. One is scheduling (Same reason that Sherilyn Fenn couldn't do it), one is that a lot of the cast weren't happy to appear in Lynch's movie after he let the show creatively dwindle (This is why you don't get Cooper investigating the Theresa Banks mystery even though he should've been) and Boyle was difficult to work with. Fenn has never minced words when it comes to Boyle. For that matter a few members of the cast have stated that Boyle became tough to work with throughout the show. For what it's worth, after rewatching it I think that Boyle is great in the show. She provides some of the more resonant emotional moments for me, and she does a great job of a good girl pretending to be something she's not.

The original series and FWWM are pretty different tonally and this felt way more like the latter.

For all the poo poo Boyle gets (some of it deserved) I do agree her portrayal of Donna was great, especially in that first season. Her reaction as she comes to the realization something has happened to Laura in the pilot, in the classroom, is amazing. Or whenever she went 'bad' wearing Laura's sunglasses. She had some good poo poo to work with on the show and delivered. Shame about her off screen antics. I do really love Moira Kelly's Donna as well, fwiw. I'd have been happy with her returning instead, but I think taking Donna out of the show was a good decision.

Rageaholic Monkey posted:How do you figure? I just rewatched the entire series and FWWM week before last and the first 4 episodes felt way closer in tone to FWWM to me (no constant music, way more surreal horror stuff, fewer goofy subplots, etc.) For example the lady with the dog in episode 1, and the interaction between Lucy and the insurance salesman was straight outta the series, I find. I don't disagree that it's darker and more serious than the originals, but from how people were describing it sounded more like "This is FWWM 2: electric bogaloo, has nothing to do with the series".

Can we take a moment to appreciate Kimmy Robertson fully cracking during the chocolate bunny scene? She was holding back her laughter so hard, and it was everything.

The first is when she's telling a story to Harold Smith (Jeez, remember that nonsense) about how her and Laura went out and met these older boys and how she was trying to keep up with Laura. The other is in the club when Maddie is murdered. She's talking with James and they silently realise that things are never going to work out between them and she just breaks down. It's a great performance.

Recently I rewatched the series for a third time. This go-around being with my younger brother, who'd never seen any of it and wanted to give it a chance in preparation for the new season. He's not a fan of David Lynch and it surprised even himself how much he enjoyed the show. I decided to, cautiously and out of obligation to the story as a whole, show him Fire Walk With Me. Personally, I love the movie and am a huge Lynch fan but I was concerned that despite it being a Twin Peaks add on, he'd hate hit because it's *so Lynch*. He loved the movie. Told me: "Out of all the Lynch stuff I've seen, this was actually good." and he's currently loving the new season. This general sentiment is something I've been hearing a lot of from people in the Twin Peaks circle who are new to the show but have never found themselves to be a fan of Lynch. So I think the problem is your outlook, boy-o.

This season is just loving awful TV so far, just utter twaddle. I don't give a poo poo about Lynch one way or the other but the reaction of this thread is bewildering. Are you all that blinded by "having" to like him that you can't see how utterly loving shite this all is?

I blew through the four episodes, and they somehow exceeded my high expectations. I'm a little confused by Jaques Renault manning the bar though. I think the credits even confirmed that it was him.
