    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E04 "Rest In Pain"

    I agree with you in principle. But the bassic message the episode tries to convey is that Cooper found decency and good old-fashioned American values in this little slice of small-town Americana, and in this context, respect the wishes of the community is more important than being cold and...

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E05 "The One-Armed Man"

    Well, I would just ask anyway, just to eliminate that shadow of a doubt. Besides I would assume that she would expect Andy to know what she's thinking. But Cooper could still ask her as the outsider he is.

    I never heard anything but "MOM". I'm surprised you guys started imagining such an alternative scenario.

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E05 "The One-Armed Man"

    Yes, that's the content. However I saw that in a video with other TV and movie tropes, but I can't find it. It was something like "5 stupid movie tropes that keep coming back" or "that they insist on using" or something. The safety-drop tests idea seems pretty sensible.

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E05 "The One-Armed Man"

    Twin Peaks goes on with the slow burn, the operative word being... slow. The previous two episodes had at least one important event you can refer about the episode by (The bottle game and Cooper's dream in ep 3 and the secret society in episode 4, but I have to tell someone about this episode...

    Indeed the Palmers have several important figures in TV history. Sometimes reality is funnier... :emoji_grimacing:

    Aired Thursday 9:00 PM May 03, 1990 on ABC Cooper and Truman track down the aforementioned titular character and some strange new evidence, which in the Twin Peaks universe means pretty normal new evidence; Audrey begins her own investigation. CAST Kyle MacLachlan ... Special Agent...

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E04 "Rest In Pain"

    I just do either one of two things: I select the passage I want quoted in my reply and click "reply", or copy and paste the passage I want and click "Insert" in the upper menu and then "quote". But of course you can manually copy and paste [ QUOTE] and [ /QUOTE] wherever you need them. Yes, and...

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E04 "Rest In Pain"

    I have to agree with you on that. It's part of the surreal atmosphere that seemingly normal people go along this nonsense as if it made any sense. And yes, Cooper is engaging and Truman is the kind of man to seriously give a person the benefit of the doubt. And they all respect Cooper very much...

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E03 "Zen, Or The Skill To Catch A Killer"

    Indeed, I was wondering where you were. Welcome back. I figure it's like Richie Rich's personal McDonald's inside his mansion.

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E04 "Rest In Pain"

    So, after an entire week, we finally got the answer we all were waiting for: who killed Laura Palmer. Except that, no... I admire Sheriff Truman's patience to go along with Agent Cooper's head trips. Instead, I just imagined the scene: Truman - "So, who killed Laura Palmer?" Cooper - "Have I...

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E03 "Zen, Or The Skill To Catch A Killer"

    I see. I wanted to watch the sequel as well, but when it was first announced, I decided I would only watch it after I had seen the original series.

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E03 "Zen, Or The Skill To Catch A Killer"

    Honestly I don't know what possessed you to watch the sequel before TOS. But then to each his own. That was his role in DS9. And THAT'S the gag!\(Not to say I felt uninspired last week.)

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E03 "Zen, Or The Skill To Catch A Killer"

    Quite a few interesting ideas going around. I'd like to point out a few. Ha! There was so much to comment on that I simply forgot all about Miguel Ferrer. Come to think of it, he seemed just like a random character, and the episode only worked to introduce him and give us an idea of what he is...

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E03 "Zen, Or The Skill To Catch A Killer"

    Zen, Or The Skill To Catch A Killer has a promising start diving headfirst into the show's surreal motif. We first see the Horns having a meal, and the boy (Johnny) is wearing an Indian Chief headdress and the image was jarring, considering I wasn't aware Johnny was mentally ill. Suddenly, there...

    Review Twin Peaks: The Return Season 3

    Don't worry. People often get misunderstood when communicating through short written messages. The best thing is to ask for clarification, or clarify things if we feel necessary. It's interesting how we're going through an age of revivals, remakes and reboots that tend to blur the line between...

    Review Twin Peaks: The Return Season 3

    I never intended to suggest this was not the right place to talk about the 2017 Limited Series Event. For the record, I think that's precisely the place you should use. And, yes, thanks for the suggestion. I do intend to watch the movies and the miniseries after we're through with the original show.
