It was pretty much the greatest night of that year for me, or one of them at least.

I was on the Appalachian Trail when it premiered. Had to download them on wifi and watch on my phone in my hammock. I had to turn FWWM off half way through because Bob hiding behind the desk was too freaky for the middle of the woods. Definitely adds to the atmosphere haha

I remember how amazingly awesome that was, It was a year ago today for me, as I started watching the next morning since I was working graveyard when it premiered as I recall. So insanely creepy. I remember that it took me the entire week to watch all four episodes. I watched the first two episodes as a sort of... single 2-hour film that first morning, and the ending of that second episodes at The Roadhouse ending with The Chromatics playing Shadow and feeling like the perfect modern group and song for that exact moment, just pitch perfect. I remember just watching the end of that second episode and the whole experience of those first two episodes, the real new TP content I'd been waiting patiently for DECADES and never really expected or could hope for, given how capricious Lynch is. I didn't really believe the show was coming back until I saw those episode, either. Hadn't really allowed myself to hope, and in a way my expectations were very low. So needless to say it was my ultimate  moment. I didn't watch episodes 3 and 4 until the sunday that next weekend! I had to rewatch those first two episodes at least once and go back to FWWM first!

I also had to watch 1&2 separately from 3&4 but in my case it was because I got too high and realised I was falling asleep a couple minutes into ep 3 (I’d been up all night waitin on these eps) so I slept and woke up and resmoked and then did 3-4

I watched the first two episodes at breakfast the day after they aired, and I was pretty stoked. The really mindblowing part was this thread's enthusiasm for the show, though. I'll never be able to discuss Twin Peaks in such detail with anyone I know IRL, so it's been a real treat. It's a bit surprising that a year has already passed, since I've been kind of spending a lot of time just getting into metatextual aspects of the season. There are still so many little references and influences to discover. Currently, I'm watching Kenneth Anger's Magick Lantern Cycle and reading Hollywood Babylon. After that, there's complete French blu-ray release of Jacques Tati's movies waiting for me. The Return really changes drastically depending on your mood or the kinds of movies you've been watching.

My friends are currently watching season three with me for the first time (while I provide coffee, pie and character names if they don't remember*). When the Chromatics came up, they got really annoyed at the schmaltzy Indie band. It reminded me of that quote from the Guardian's episode guide: Guardian posted:On stage the Chromatics are playing a wistful, white indie ballad of the kind I hoped we’d heard the last of in 1993. *They didn't recognise Bobby at all. I couldn't believe it. The camera even does a slow dramatic zoom in. At least they recognised Heidi because of her trademark laugh. And More fucked around with this message at 14:17 on May 21, 2018 |

I mean, a huge part of that is by episode 3 & 4 the guy covering it evidently hasn't seen or can't remember anything from Season 2 or Fire Walk With Me and is struggling to keep up even with the relatively explicit plot points and signals made within the episodes, then he gets replaced by episode 7.

That Chromatics song was just beyond perfect. Honestly, shoegaze/dreampop is my absolute favorite genre of music and I grew up treasuring my Cocteau Twins/Galaxie 500/etc... poo poo - it's in my blood. I'm gonna brag for a second about my uncle who is an incredibly cool person and has been an artist working all over the world for like 40 years now. In the late 70s/early 80s he was living in SoHo and made friends with this cool woman who lived downstairs, Kim Gordon - she took care of my uncle one winter, who has mental illness issues like everyone in my family basically. Anyway Dan, my uncle, eventually convinced her to perform as the vocalist in this "all girl punk rock band" he was putting together for a piece of performance art he was doing.... as I recall the band was called CKM and Kim Gordon was mostly nervous because she'd never sang before... Anyway this was also around the time she met Thurston Moore and formed Sonic Youth - another one of my fave bands that is more garage noiserock or art-rock more in the vein of the Velvet Underground's more experimental stuff, but they also do stuff like 'Teenage Riot' which is brilliant and more melodic and "shoegazeing", a direction they can easily go in when they want to. Actually, my uncle (Dan Graham) always reminded me oddly of Lynch. Both are brilliantly intelligent artists, albeit who have achieved very different levels of success. In some ways, there are similarities to certain aspects of their work - they both deal heavily with perception and audience interaction with the work in different ways. They are also both white-haired and rather distinctive-looking with extremely idioyncratic ways of talking. kaworu fucked around with this message at 16:15 on May 21, 2018 |

The Return was also the most productive I’ve been with a hobby since being in education, what with rewatching and taking notes and recording/editing for PEAKED. I had so much loving fun doing that podcast. Wish I was able to feel that inspired for more things!

I think, not matter your opinion on Twin Peaks and how it handled continuity or the finale or anything like that, we can all agree that watching it every week... there was nothing else like it. And there never will be.

Huh, I did wonder whether the writing style had changed.  Still, I think he starts enjoying it more over the course of those episodes despite his confusion. It's probably how most people outside of this thread watched the Return, so it offers some valuable insight. His write-up on the creepiness of Dougie's life for episode five is also pretty inspired. I don't think he's wrong when he calls it uncanny (in a Freudian sense). It's like that jolly old couple from Mulholland Drive, except everyone in Las Vegas.

I bought the Blu-Ray set back in like loving December, mainly because a girl I was seeing on and off at the time who was into Twin Peaks said she wanted to rewatch season 3, but we ended up never doing that together and I've still never watched the Blu-Rays. You would think I would've been fiending to watch the special features on there and stuff, and I still do want to see them, but I never did for whatever reason. I should really watch that whole set one of these days, just like I watched all of The Entire Mystery Blu-Ray set a year ago to prepare for the premiere of The Return. My Lovely Horse posted:I hadn't heard Shadows before, just two of their albums, so when that song came on I was still half thinking about what a trippy series opener that was, half disbelieving that it was 2017 and I'd just watched a new Twin Peaks episode, and it only slowly crept into my consciousness that this music style was very familiar. "Wait a loving second are those Chromatics, holy poo poo how cool can David Lynch still get" were my exact thoughts I believe.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjQ2jGUNSck https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEMsjeq43_U Rageaholic fucked around with this message at 18:37 on May 21, 2018 |

The special features gave me a renewed appreciation for the series and David Lynch's involvement in it. It's clear that he had basically the entire thing, shot-for-shot, including the way the lines would be delivered, committed to memory from the start. Listening to him describe the scenes in detail before they were ever filmed as if he was describing them after having watched the finished product is very cool.

No other TV show is ever going to match my experience of coming out of episode 1 with total faith in Lynch and having that faith rewarded several times over the course of seventeen more sublime hours.

I don’t really care how much of a fanboy I am being here. Lynch has influenced my approach to life and art in a way I don’t normally feel comfortable with in terms of idols/heroes. I’m fine with it though. I’ve gotten so much out of his presence that it would be dishonest to hide it.

I YouTubed "Twin Peaks one year later" because I could swear there would be at least a few hour-long video essays or whatever, but I could only find 2 ~12 minute long videos and they both sucked. I guess they could've been good had they been presented differently, but the presentation turned me off at least. I'm disappointed there isn't more out there

I generally agree with the broader ideas they're interpreting the series to contain. But even that being said, they don't go far enough with their own examples- like they have some neat things to say about the Audrey's Dance scene, but how do you talk about and totally ignore how the credits of that episode have the Audrey's Dance theme played in reverse?

Woah, apparently Johnny Jewel of Chromatics wrote 20+ hours of music for The Return (that Lynch didn't use) and he surprise-released an album today with a bunch of cuts from that material called Themes For Television. There's an alternate version of Shadow on there and everything. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfJ_Dxpi6kU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ijcTx6vBoJw

I was already a bit shocked by the large number of tracks on Windswept that were clearly intended for The Return. Did the guy produce way more than was requested or did Lynch actually decide against using it? Sounds like something Lynch would do, but it's also a bit messed up. What happened to all the digital versions of their albums, btw. They used to be available on this website for a buck each, but I guess they were removed.
