Jerry sitting out in the forest smoking weed and watching low rent conspiracy youtube is the only and best direction he could have travelled.

Jerusalem posted:A note from Major Briggs reads,"Jerry Horne will be there. I have no idea why or what he is doing though." That's the impression I get from Briggs, that's he's constantly mindful and concerned about everyone he interacts with. Sort of like an Omnidad.

I really think it's interesting in episode 9 that as horribly mutilated as Garland's body is, or how dark the comedy of Albert flirting with a woman over the dude's remains are, his actual values and general positivity are still held up as worthwhile and noble. The scene with Bobby and his mother talking about how Garland never stopped believing in him is genuinely moving. He hangs over the series in a strangely warm way. EDIT: Like a lesser version of this show would have used how terrible Briggs' death was as a rebuke of his values. Raxivace fucked around with this message at 06:23 on Jul 12, 2017 |

brigg's death was faked, nothing to do with twin peaks, he was just needed to run the stargate program and once while resting his head in the stargate someone unplugged it...

Just got caught up on the thread. The only person I know in real life that watches this is my wife and she is uh....not super thrilled about this season (she's in the "Hurry up, Coop" camp but I love her anyway). I sat up and said "AUDREY!" when Coop saw the red shoes. I know it wasn't Audrey, but it was just one more visual clue for the old Coop. Anyway, love the show and love the discussion here. What a time to be alive.

Does anyone remember when Cooper stopped talking to Diane via tape in the original run? I don't know why I was thinking of that, but I can't really remember when they stopped.

its an interesting coincidence that just like Hammond did in the '1969' episode in Stargate, Briggs too is holding out on giving people information until exactly the right moment.

Prediction time! When Dougie finally meets Cole and the others, all the little quirks he's remembered (coffee, thumbs up etc.) will be the evidence they need to recognise him as the legit Cooper, as opposed to the doppleganger's empty attempts. It all comes together in a big realisation scene. Then, just to make it bittersweet, Janey-E goes all squirrel from Sword in the Stone

I agree about the stylized owl interpretation but I also always saw it as being a void situated between two peaks. In the filled in version it's a black void and in the outline version it's a white void. And now it has another layer of potential meaning if it does represent the Mother/experiment figure as well.

That scene got me choked up both times I watched it (many years apart) and I'm glad ep 9 referenced Major Briggs having faith in Bobby again. Almost got me choked up again Lynch!

Cooper talks to Diane as late as episode 28 Miss Twin Peaks. COOPER: Diane, at this particular juncture I would like to make specific mention of Annie Blackburn. She is a completely original human being; her responses as pure as those of a child's. I must be honest, I haven't felt this way about a woman since Caroline. It has taken meeting Annie for me to realize how gray my life has been since Caroline's death; how cold, solitary."

I keep expecting Dougie to say drat good coffee or similar after all these pregnant pauses. They even dressed him up like Cooper to go see the cops.

I somehow missed this but Denise's assistant or whatever was played by loving Richard Chamberlain. "How's Martha?" "She's fine, thank you Gordon" "She ever fix that thing with Paul?" "Ah, yes, yes yes, It's good of you to remember. Paul is now in the North Pole" "Well there you go!"

LawfulWaffle posted:Second, I think we've seen the image on Bad Coop's ace of spades before. It looks like the owl cave symbol, which could be a sort of primitive representation of Mother/Experiment. The owl cave symbol is also shown in the series facing both directions, as it's pointing down on the map but pointing up in its "correct" configuration within the cave. This could refer to the line "sometimes my arms bend backwards" that Laura says in the beginning of the season. Some of this is more tenuous than others, fair, but I can't stop seeing the resemblance between the card and the symbol. From Secret History of Twin Peaks: Space Owls

Mraagvpeine posted:I told some people I liked Twin Peaks and they said I should check out the shows Fortitude and Carnivale. Would you recommend them? Sorry, this is from a while back, but I think a lot of people who like Twin Peaks would like Fortitude. At least the first season (I haven't watched the second yet.) It's definitely not the same thing at all, but as "It's like Twin Peaks" shows go I feel like it's the closest, and it has a lot of similar elements: small isolated town where everyone seems to have a secret, a mysterious murder, local cops out of their depths, outside lawman brought in to figure it all out, strange spiritual/occult/paranormal things. It is a lot more serious drama, and doesn't really have any of the lighter moments of Twin Peaks. It has some good performances and does a good job of keeping you guessing about what is really going on (or at least it did me, but it could be that I am just easily hoodwinked.) I think you can get a good sense if it's your thing or not within the first 2-4 episodes.

I'm making my way through season 2 of Fortitude now and I would describe it as Broadchurch meets Twin Peaks meets John Carpenters The Thing (more the setting) with a bit of X-Files plots thrown in.

Carnivale season 1 has a pretty similar feel to episode 8 specifically, I think. Both have an eerie twist on vintage eras that are really captivating, but Carnivale spreads it out over a longer time and 'grounds' it with a religious/mythical element. Basically I reckon: Carnivale =   Twin Peaks =
