    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E02 "Traces To Nowhere"

    This is going to be a much shorter review than that of last week, because I feel that basically I said everything I had to say and until something really new happens, what I said before still applies. As far as I can see, the pieces are still being set on the board, and we're still learning...

    Review Twin Peaks: The Return Season 3

    It was just a casual comment I made. Not a big deal. It wasn't meant to be a criticism of any kind. I understand there's some controversy about that, as there has been some ambiguity concerning the subject, but it was just our understanding that there was no such thing as a "Season 3" to begin...

    Review Twin Peaks: The Return Season 3

    I said that we are only going through Twin Peaks episode by episode because we considered the 1990-1991 show as a single one-and-done show. The 2017 version was announced by the producers as a Limited Event Series, not a season 3. At least that's what we considered when we chose it, since we...

    Review Twin Peaks: The Return Season 3

    Well, we only picked "Twin Peaks" because we didn't consider the "Return" a season 3, but a "Limited Event Series."

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E01 "Northwest Passage"

    Congratulations! You found the final gag-credit piece. Indeed, we owe this brilliant score to the competent hands of Angelo Badalamenti, and I wanted to point that out. In fact, I had a list of Italian composers (including Nino Rita and Alessandro Cicognini) that I was going to use in the...

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E01 "Northwest Passage"

    Guys, I think we've had a great beginning. Now that we've started, I'll try visiting some other "Twin Peaks" forums here and there and let them know about our initiative. And I was thinking all of us could make a quick visit to that place we just came from, and subtly suggest that we are here...

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E01 "Northwest Passage"

    Just for the record, I started doing that just to find out if anyone was reading the credits part, and people found the "mistakes" more quickly than I had expected. Then I kept doing it anyway because I thought that would give the credits a purpose besides being purely informative, considering...

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E01 "Northwest Passage"

    Yeah... I thought the situation was a bit confusing concerning who is dating who, so I described James as Laura's boyfriend in my review. Indeed, I had never thought of Twin Peaks as a soap opera, but I guess it fits in the category and that explains all the initial drama and crying...

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E01 "Northwest Passage"

    Twin Peaks – S01E01 – Pilot Review (Part 2) Her friend, “Donna Hayward”, was also Laura’s friend and she’s “the good girl”. Judging by her interaction with James, I can already see these two are going to be some kind of star-crossed lover couple. I like her, but I’m not particularly impressed...

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E01 "Northwest Passage"

    Twin Peaks – S01E01 – Pilot Review (Part 1) I still remember when I watched the “Twin Peaks” pilot on television, and I’ll try to recall those reactions and make them part of my review. It was just unfortunate that the network that was airing the series never ended it. I remember I had had the...

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E01 "Northwest Passage"

    Oh, dammit, Bob! I was going to play innocent and say, Why???? Did you notice something wrong? And then he would win the gag-detection award. (Just kidding! :emoji_wink:)

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E01 "Northwest Passage"

    Speaking of the Devil... You're right about the Ray Wise/John Glover reference. Both actors gave remarkable performances as the Devil on TV shows. John Glover being acid and cruel, and Ray Wise being witty and funny (and cruel too). Just one thing to add: Assistant Director Skinner is also a...

    Review Procedural question about the pilot

    One episode. We've already tried dividing the pilot, and it never worked. People would watch the whole thing and run out of things to say about the second half the following week.

    Review Irwin Allen

    I think Lost in Space could be seen as a disappointment if you start from the pilot and expect a serious, dark show. But back in the 60s, you'd never catch something from the beginning. You'd catch it in the middle, then watch the same episodes again in reruns through the years. One day you'd...

    Review Irwin Allen

    Hello, hello. I guess we meet again. Guess what, we're here now. We'll be starting Twin Peaks next Friday, the 16th. You're welcome to join us! Anyway, I grew up watching Irwin Allen shows. At the time that was what we had, so it was what we watched and enjoyed. That was what Tv shows were...

    Review Twin Peaks (1990)

    Thank you. 30 weeks is the time to cover all episodes. Then a couple more deciding where to go next. Then, the next show. Until we grow tired of it.

    Fun Our Early Posts!

    Hi! I can already feel the love and warmth... Thanks a lot. My friends and I were, in fact, looking for a good place where to carry on our discussions about cancelled TV shows, episode by episode, from beginning to end. We're going to start with Twin Peaks (1990) on the 16th. Hopefully we can...
