I have to agree with Mad-Pac’s observation in his earlier review that this show would be better if it concentrated on fewer storylines instead of being overly abundant with them. Case in point is one of tonight’s stories which may or may not be done with – the rich blonde gig. James finally...

Another week of spreading out bits of several stories. Let’s just go storyline by storyline: Major Briggs and the White Lodge: He’s returned from his mysterious journey with a weird symbol on his neck of three triangles. Just as he is about to reveal more about the secret project he is...

At least this week, the title made sense. “The Black Widow” referred to the bride of last week who was quickly widowed in this episode. Honestly, when I saw her running down the hall screaming early in the episode I expected her to say that her new husband was getting too frisky with her and...

I have no idea why this was called “Masked Ball.” There was no masquerade ball, like alone a costume party of any sort. There was a wedding of the old mayor and a really young bride, but people just wore tuxedos and wedding gowns, not fancy ball masks. Perhaps they should have just entitled...

Interesting solution to your puzzle. I used to pay more attention to director's credits in the past. I had noticed the name Lesli Linka Glatter directing some TWIN PEAKS episodes. I knew her name from shows like HOMELAND and THE MENTALIST, but had never noticed Tim Hunter's name. In the past...

No argument there, but I when I first brought it up you implied that No, she went to see her sister. Where did this abortion thing come from? So I pointed out where it was mentioned in the plot. I didn't think she'd have it either, after she got so upset with Dick's offer to pay for it. I only...

With one storyline pretty much finished and another strong one not yet started, this episode nonetheless bridged the gap quite nicely. First, we discover that Leland died a few days after his confession. Logically, his storyline had nowhere left to go but to prison or an asylum. So this is a...

It occurs to me that the previous show the Sages did you may have been referencing was BRIMSTONE, as it dealt with catching a list of bad guys written on Stone's skin in tattoos vs. THE BLACKLIST hunting down a list of bad guys from Raymond's recommendations. Don't know what the profession...

Regarding your crazy credits challenge: I recognize James Spader, Harry Lennix, Jane Alexander, Benjamin Eakely, Norma Chu, and Edi Gathegi as all playing characters on THE BLACKLIST. And Ray Reddington is the character played by James Spader on THE BLACKLIST. I don't know how that show relates...

Well, it looks like this episode officially wraps up the “Who killed Laura Palmer?” storyline. Cooper remembers Laura telling him “My father killed me,” in the dream. (What a thing to forget. It’s one thing to not remember a stranger’s name, but “my father?”) They nicely lure Leland to the...

Season 2 - Episode 5 (The Orchid's Curse) - 30 minutes into the story: (Andy digs through the sticky notes on his desk and then finds a regular white note reading "Gwen and Larry", but with two phone numbers on it. He calls one of the numbers) Voice on phone: Adams Abortion Clinic Andy: Hi, is...

Leland (aka Bob) is going even more off the deep end than ever. Not only is he singing and dancing but he’s driving boldly around with Maddy in the car wrapped in plastic like her doppelganger Laura. Sarah doesn’t remember crawling around the house or seeing the horse, let alone hearing Maddy...

Lots of weird goings on this week, and a couple of big revelations. First, they’re off to investigate the Great Northern Hotel. Andy’s with them this time. So did they just forget about him chasing after Lucy to stop her from aborting her baby? Apparently so. Typical David Lynch nonsense at...

No, that's where Lucy said she was going. But when Andy called the number she had left, it was answered "Adams Abortion Clinic." He looked horrified and rushed off. Remember we didn't see Andy this week despite several scenes in the Sheriff's Office.

This week we’re back to filler mode, although some things are moving forward slowly. Donna and James are back together, both apologizing for earlier bad behavior. James rushed in to save them from Harold’s wrath, although Harold only ever did damage to himself. But he did manage to keep...

We got off to a great start this week. Cooper did a headstand and finally spotted that note from Audrey. Once again she was cryptic, but at least it was obvious to him and us – North for Canada, Jack for One-Eyed Jacks. Cooper finally knows where Audrey is! We then have a silly scene with...

Honestly, this one just felt like filler. Nothing major happening. The good news is that Josie is back; I got tired of seeing her special billing every week but no sign of her. And she did rock that black outfit she was wearing. Audrey still being held prisoner, and drugged. Now her...

Well, I didn’t fall asleep this week. And while we still don’t know who killed Laura Palmer, we do have the answers to some other questions. Who is Mr. Smith? – After he was mentioned last week, I was expecting an old man. But instead we get a young fellow rather sweet and charming. But you do...

Did you mean to say, "Personally I find Lucy so awfully cute that I would have a very hard time NOT forgiving her, no matter what she did." Myself, if I find somebody "awfully cute" I'm usually willing to forgive more easily. I am reminded of this dialogue I wrote for a BRIMSTONE story. The...

That was from episode 8. Clever past reference to Planet of the Apes. (And just in time, too, as the “Invitation to Love” segments appear to have been eliminated since then). On to last week: Ah, yes, Richard Kiel played the Giant Indian in “Bad Medicine” and the Spanish Moss Monster in “The...
