I started watching Twin Peaks for the first time properly just recently. I'm an episode away from the end of season 1 and am really liking it, then I saw that season 2 is 20+ episodes and according to the OP the middle third are "mad sketchy" so I doubt I'm gonna get through them in a rush

Just finished season 2... Cooper! Just Fire Walk With Me to go and I can start the new episodes. It's been a week and a half since they started airing the new episodes, I think I may be the person who has waited the longest in history before being able to see new Twin Peaks. Almost two weeks between season 2 and season 3? Horrifying.

I'm watching Fire Walk With Me and the tangible dread of the dinner scene where Leland is telling Laura to wash her hands.....

I loved it, as an exploration of Laura's descent as a result of her victimization it's pretty incredible and the ending is outstanding. Some of the peripheral parts don't quite work, in particular I didn't really enjoy the opening section with Chris Isaak and Kiefer Sutherland, but once it returns to Twin Peaks and focuses in on Laura it becomes pretty goddamn amazing. I loved Leland too, those rare moments of clarity where he can see how monstrous he has become, which in turn has let Bob in. I guess it's time to watch the new season now!

First episode of the new season is amazing, even with all the different locations and the clear passage of time it's like it is just flowing smoothly on from the end of season 2/FWWM

eSporks posted:This is reaching now, but the green light that signaled the liar is different then the lodge lights that signaled the jackpots. Green could represent Dougies coat and coop tapping into Dougies memories. I actually wondered if that was just a visual representation for us of Agent Cooper's ability to read people swimming back up to the surface, if only momentarily. The first season of Twin Peaks was pretty good about showing that Coop could instantly tell if somebody was lying or telling the truth, he dismisses the idea of James or Bobby as Laura Palmer's killer almost immediately after meeting them.

Heavy Metal posted:It's interesting to hear some say this feels slow paced, but for me it doesn't at all. When it's over I want more, like it ended all too soon. Every single time the end credits come up I go,"Already!?!" and then realize an hour has somehow magically passed. It's not enough

I was just reminded of that scene where Cooper takes James aside and quietly tells him (paraphrased),"James, please stop ending up framed for various crimes because you tried to solve a crime yourself instead of just coming to us with the information...."

COOL CORN posted:That's fair. I'm just in a hurry to get to The Return, but it'll always be there I guess I just worked my way through both seasons to get to the return, season 2 is difficult but it's worth it to watch the whole thing, you'll actually have more of an appreciation for just how right Lynch gets it after watching how wrong it can be without him. multijoe posted:Don't skip scenes, episodes or anything else. Just sit down and watch the goddamn show. A True Jar Jar Fan posted:Watch it all the first time and skip the stuff you hate next time. No one will ever agree on what the bad parts are.

I should be frustrated that Coop hasn't emerged yet, but Dougie is just so fascinating to watch. The scene with his Boss slowly working out what he thinks Dougie was trying to tell him was so great.sector_corrector posted:Also, he saw a trash monster in LA once. That scene is one of the most unsettling and disturbing things I've ever seen. Lynch captured nightmare logic so perfectly with it.

Tirranek posted:People say Cooper is all Dougied up because he was in the lodge for a long time, but wasn't he fine until being sucked through a plug socket? 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.

TrixRabbi posted: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. 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.

The lodge has always seemed to exist outside of time and space (Laura dreams about telling Coop who killed her, and writes about it in her diary BEFORE she dies, for example) so I just figured it was as simple as Coop was seeing what was always going to be the next machine to jackpot, as opposed to the lodge actually MAKING them jackpot, if that makes any sense.

Can I just say how happy I am that the last time we saw Leo (apart from Fire Walk With Me which was set in the past) was a cutaway gag to him tied up underneath that spider in the forest, after Bobby said,"He's probably partying out in the forest!" - I honestly hope we never hear anything else about what happened to him after that, it was loving hilarious.

Ingmar terdman posted:I think everyone may want to curb their expectations on Coop "coming back" and what that will actually be like. Even if he snaps to in the next episode, is 100% "there" mentally, etc. he's still going to have frozen caveman syndrome with the world in general. It would be surprising if he was reintegrated into the FBI as a full special agent or whatever. A crazy assassin dude with his face has been wreaking havoc for decades. And he will most likely be a changed man from his time in limbo. I dunno, I could easily eat my words on this -because who can even pretend to predict what Lynch will do - but I don't think the returning Coop is going to be the same chipper guy throwing rocks and bottles and going on about trees he was. I don't think he's going to jump in and take the lead on the South Dakota murder case. Cooper becomes the new Sheriff of Twin Peaks  Name even one person who is cooler than Kyle MacLachl- el oso posted:Unsurprisingly, Lynch killed Showtime's plans for a big marketing campaign using footage from S3. Nevermind.

nopants posted:I'm watching the first episode of season one. It makes me sad that harry s Truman won't be in this season. He and coop had such great chemistry. The Cooper/Truman friendship from the original run was so great, I miss it too. That episode in season 2 where Cooper asks Truman to find him a trustworthy man to go on a dangerous and unsanctioned mission with him, and then his reaction when he realizes who Truman has picked...

This in particular really hosed with me, I've dreamed of a place/feeling like this before and it was horrifying. Though if I'd known there was a nice, smiling fat lady inside and a friendly giant maybe I'd have felt better..... Which reminds me, I love that in 2017 we had somebody post in this thread their relief at seeing Twin Peak's giant, because NOW things would start making sense!

Guy Mann posted:Inversely, if any work was actually done in the dark period before they gave Lynch full control I really hope that let it go once the series is over just so we can see how big a bullet we dodged. It's an adaptation of Stephen King's The Dark Tower, only with James as Roland and Windom Earle as the Man in Black.

Political monologues, inviting all his friends for appearances, musical guests and some skits. Ever since his guest appearance on Louis C.K's show, I have desperately wanted to see The Late Show with David Lynch
