Possibly. It was also an extremely crunchy sandwich

I'm really enjoying everything about this season. Glad that Lynch is continuing to give the people what he wants rather than what they want.

Not even. After her first bite into a full sandwich, the camera cuts to a different angle and she puts down half a slice of bread.
That said, she does un-eat the second half of her sandwich once.
gently caress it's almost 4am and now I'm hungry.

:agreed:

I love the deliberate melancholy pacing of the show and Dougie's theme reflects that. The slow reintroduction to the town of Twin Peaks parallels Cooper's slow rediscovery of his real identity.

I hated Dougie at first but I'm starting to fall in love with the character. There's gotta be some deeper critique Lynch is making about petty surburban life.

Epsiode 6 was brilliant and had great pacing. I think this season is shaping up to be superior to the original in every way.

Watch Lynch troll everyone hoping for the return of Agent Coop and he shows up only in the final two episodes of the season.

I really enjoy the Dougie scenes but I find them far more melancholy than comic. Kyle's performance does a ton of lifting there though, if it was in the hands of another actor I don't know if it would feel as weighty as it does to me.

It kinda seemed like that sandwich never got smaller. I think there was a continuity error too when she was cleaning the plates. She takes Dougies empty plate and puts it on top of her plate, smashing her leftover sandwich (that was truly the most disturbing part of the episode). Then there is a cut away to Dougie, but you see her hold the plates on the side, and the sandwich was now on top of both plates. I think it's clear that the sandwich is from the Black Lodge and is really controlling everything.

Yep, he was still somewhat passive but I figure 25+ years waiting around in the Black Lodge were to explain for that - you gotta learn patience and he was already a pretty patient/zen dude to begin with. He seemed to mostly be like the old Coop as he made his way out of the lodge through the glass box and then into the "space ship". It's only after he gets sucked through the plug and switches places with Dougie that he seemed to be turned blank.

Dudes need to chill with the "no true Lynch fan" stuff. It's ok to disagree about the show.

Anyway, I loved the way Dougie's face lit up when he saw the picture of Jade. She's really been one of the most purely good new people we've met.

Reminder that Jade dumped a dude who clearly just had a stroke at a casino and not like, a hospital.

Leaving him with a security person and saying "I think he had a stroke" isn't ideal but it's hugely better than anyone else has behaved. Though the cop in this last episode was helpful too, the second time.

He lost his shoes in the lodge and now he's walking a mile in another man's shoes. His sole is in the lodge and the shoes make the man.

Yeah, I also don't think it's "hilarious." And I think it's a waste of McLachlan's talents. It's not enough to sandbag the entire episodes or series for me though. Just sort of uninteresting. Karate Coke Magician was cool though.

One thing I'm really sad about is that we won't get to see Cooper and Harry Truman buddy up again. I loved their dynamic from the original run so much.

I like the Dougie scenes but would probably be happier if they were shorter or interspersed throughout the episode so it makes them appear shorter. I did a rewatch of everything before the new stuff and I never got the feeling certain scenes felt like they were dragging to the point of annoyance like I have lately. Maybe the payoff will change how I perceive them though.

"phphphphphphpht"? this is what you're going with?

you sure?
Just watched episode 6. Anyone else feel like since Cooper was lost to the Black Lodge, the town lost some footing in its standoff with the evil in the woods? I can't describe it well, it feels like there's been a breach in whatever is holding the evil in the woods at bay. It feels like the town is... sicker?

Chad continues to be a piece of poo poo. I gotta give props to how thoroughly he has been characterized as a dirtbag, from his appearance to his lines. Richard Horne outclasses him though, guy's like some horrific blend of Bobby Briggs and Leo Johnson.

Speaking of horrifying, what the gently caress was going on with Cocaine Sorcerer? I was half expecting him to do the "I'm in your house" bit from Lost Highway.

I hope Ike finds a new spike. Hang in there buddy!

I admit, when the hit and run scene was being telegraphed, at first I thought he was going to run over Stanton somehow. When the kid came running along, I was like "whew."

I enjoyed Richard calling his supplier "that magic bastard" or, motherfucker, or whatever it was exactly.

Also, I like that Chad looks like such a typical scruffy bearded slob.

After work I'll bust out the old episode and see if either of the two guys Dougie's wife met in the park were in the black car crew. I'm more convinced that the black car crew were random car jackers now since the two guys made no mention of the explosion.

It's on Apple music by the way, Windswept by some OST guy, every song I've checked so far is on there as well. That reminds me of the cool band Xiu Xiu who recorded an album of Twin Peaks music that I haven't listened to yet, but their last couple albums I like a lot. Wonder if they'll show up at some point.

I don't understand why the Dougie scenes are so delightful to me, it's some weird movie magic. It's also how I feel about The Carnival of Souls lady, which as I understand was a big inspiration for Lynch, I think the oddly textured flowing water in the original show intro is from there.

I saw Xiu Xiu perform their Twin Peaks music live. It was loud and insane and they used the ceiling fan shot from FWWM as their background.

They did not play Just You And I, which is bullshit, and they sang the lyrics to the theme song, which was interesting. The performance of Sycamore Trees was haunting.
