So uhh, adult swim did a thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_TeH8i5bls Remember how season one was a slight satire of soap operas? Well imagine if an improv group did a satire or that satire. This show is inexplicably good and very reminiscent of twin peaks for me.

Those brilliant motherfuckers... I still need to start watching my Blu-Rays. I got the set like a week or two ago but haven't watched any of it yet.

I want to rewatch the original show first. Take a month, do an episode a day. Then the movie. Then find someone to marathon The Return with me and transcend existence as we know it.

I got a green tea latte today, because of that instant classic scene. That's the power of this show. (also kudos to the poster from September and all the other green tea crew who have posted something similar!) Heavy Metal fucked around with this message at 07:17 on Jan 7, 2018 |

The This Is Dougie's Coffee from the Twin Peaks/Showtime site is a REALLY heavy bug. I feel like I could grab the handle and smack someone in the face with it and it not break. It is also really difficult to drink coffee...or anything...from. The top of the mug is lined thick so it is really easy for the coffee to drip off onto the side of the mug. How did Dougie drink from this?

Got The Return on Bluray, two episodes in and loving it. Did not expect Cooper to be a central focus (despite him being on the cover) but it is exciting. Compelling to see him in BOB form as a high level criminal. Kyle McLaughlin looks great, as does the actress who plays Laura Palmer and the actor who plays James. This is hardly a sentimental reunion, however, nor does it succumb to fan service, from what I see so far the cheezy soap opera is gone, the harsh realities of time and age are setting in, and the show is quite bleak. In the past I went back and forthwith my opinion on David Lynch. Sometimes in the past, I'll admit, I thought he was a one-trick pony who was really good with eerie atmospheres not so much story. Hope The Return keeps up. I'm kind of taking my time with it, cherishing each episode and giving myself time to think about them before going on to the next. I'm intrigued by Cooper in a lime green suit. No idea what that is about. I only know what I see on the box set.

He does care about story, he just focuses on the subjective experiences of the characters more than the illusion of an outside, objective view of the events.

romanowski posted:do I have to come up with a whole list or can I just list twin peaks ten times It has to be a whole list, and you've got to write at least a sentence about each show. Also, just about everything counts as a show, including youtube programs with some degree of professionalism. Just vote for Monster Factory or something.

Finished episode 4! It is a blast seeing this without any idea on what to expect. Not sure if there are still people like me who would click this thread without seeing The Return, spoilering in case (I'll remove if asked) I love practically every decision Lynch has made, even the heightened stupidity of Lucy and Andy which at first struck me as overdone but then grew on me especially with Lucy's bewilderment of cell phones, oh and Michael Cera, their son's, monologue which was painful to sit through but hilarious in retrospect The "Mr. Jackpot" scenes are fantastic and I have to take back my impression that the show is taking on a mostly serious approach. When the FBI guys went to South Dakota it was a relief to see they realized something is terribly, terribly wrong with Cooper. I feel as intrigued with Twin Peaks as I did when I sat through the first season. So glad Lynch/Frost had the creative control.

I just watched Ep 1 and 2 of the Return. I never watched the original. I didn't know anything about twin peaks; a friend just gave me his copies of the show. What the heck did I just watch? Does anyone even know? What's going on ? Is this real? Whats real?

and Blue Velvet, Mulholland Drive, Lost Highway, and even more Lynch movies if you haven't! Let the David Lynch flow through you like the force. (he did meet with George Lucas for RoTJ with a funny story!)

Watching you new people go through The Return for the first time is so great. Please keep posting your feelings about it. There’s nothing like that first time through and I’m jealous I can’t do it again  dead serious my approach to creation, art and media shifted after the series ended.

It's slightly different though, considering there was a 25 year gap between "original" Twin Peaks and the Return. Some people might assume that a TV series coming 25 years later might attempt to be approachable for new viewers, I mean, not anyone familar with Lynch, but if you're going in knowing basically nothing about it, it's a wrong assumption, but not an unreasonable one.

It could be easy to assume this was just another reboot, but nope, it's a direct continuation (simply taking place 25 years later), and you're not going to understand anything if you don't watch the old stuff. Fortunately, the original series and movie are great and absolutely worth your time.

Quantum of Phallus posted:The show is literally called the return That's an alternative promotional name, and more officially it seemed to be Twin Peaks (A Limited Event Series). But still, I agree; they didn't exactly hide the fact that this is season 3 of an established series.

Rewatching the show now, it feels so much better going through it all at once instead of waiting a week (or more) between each episode. There's still a few plots that do absolutely nothing for me, but all of the Vegas stuff is even better now.
