I assume the ring's going to be important.

It pops up at various times throughout the Secret History, as well.

I never saw the original so maybe that's why, but I'm giving this a shot and it's boring as poo poo. I'm halfway through episode 3 and it's just been one big fever dream. Do we ever get a story? Some kind of plot? Because if it's just a bunch of weird poo poo and people staring while not saying anything I'm checking out.

This may not be the show for you.

Then did the whole space climb and her fly off into the universe and he just moseys on back down mean anything either?

Yes.

I think the announcer was the guy who sang the "Sycamore Trees" song.

What was the name of the person with the truck that told Andy to meet him somewhere? Could that have been Billy?

I thought so, too. In any case, I'm guessing it's the same Billy who the guy who ran into the RR was looking for at the end of ep. 7.

The transcript of the Steven/Gersten scene reads like a trailer-park version of the last words of Dutch Shultz.

I don’t consider those silly books canon unless Lynch himself says so.

Yeah, ‘cause gently caress the other guy who created the show.

It's a weird situation. Without Lynch, Twin Peaks would be terrible. The entire Jacques Tati Dougie setup is clearly his thing, and so are all of the surreal horrifying things. You can even trace them back to some of his art. What exactly is Frost's contribution, though? People used to say, Frost kept Lynch grounded, but this season isn't even slightly grounded. Season three barely had a proper investigation in it. Is he just responsible for the Tulpas, numerology and sex magick?

Outside Frost and Lynch, I don't think anyone has any real idea about the division of writing for the series. Lynch is responsible for the visual aspects of the show, but the story, the characters and the mythology could have come from either or both of them. I think most people, for instance, identify episode 8 with Lynch, but I think it fits very well with what Frost was doing in the Secret History.

Now you listen to me. While I will admit to a certain cynicism, the fact is that I am a naysayer and hatchetman in the fight against violence. I pride myself in taking a punch and I'll gladly take another because I choose to live my life in the company of Gandhi and King. My concerns are global. I reject absolutely revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method... is love. I love you Sheriff Truman.

Cooper fucks up while saving Laura. He pulls her out of reality, hesitates on the threshold, and loses her like Orpheus does Eurydice. Cooper then performs a ritual with Diane to sacrifice his own self and his own love to travel into the underworld to try and save Laura again. He hesitates again, but Laura has a spark of recognition, connects with her life, and the dark world collapses.

Laura is the one.

Watching season 3, I can't imagine too much of that was Mark Frost's work.

In case anyone is interested, someone has put up an archive of alt.tv.twinpeaks from 1990-92, so you can see what people were talking about when the show originally aired.

The electrical crackling at the end of that scene ... very bad vibes

And the episode closes with the band playing Audrey’s Dance backwards.

I'm really curious as to what her original storyline was

I heard somewhere that she was going to be the one getting beaten up by Richard Horne.
