    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E06 "Cooper's Dreams"

    I don't remember that, but the gag was that his character's name was a throwback to 1960s British TV Show Joe 90. And if in 1967 the "90" part sounded futuristic, in 2012 it felt ridiculously outdated.

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E06 "Cooper's Dreams"

    He was just a gimmick character. That show had too many gimmicks. The joke was that he wore thick glasses I guess. You missed a great show there. Well, sometimes we choose the road with Douglas Firs, sometimes the ones with Birches... Oh, by the way, I remember that year. I was quite busy...

    Ha! Carve him up... :emoji_laughing: OK. Oh, I had completely forgot about the bird. That gives a different meaning to the question "Where's Waldo?"

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E06 "Cooper's Dreams"

    Excellent question. I guess I got that impression in the beginning and just ran with it. The interesting thing is that they are so emotionally distant from one another that their relationship feels more like that of a stepfather + stepson.

    Review Tonight! "Twin Peaks" S01E06 "Cooper's Dreams"

    Ok, I'm glad we're coming to the end of the season, because that means they have to have something decisive from now on, with only two more episodes to go. On the other hand, I worry about whether the next season is going to have an even slower pace because of the longer number of season...

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

    Yep. Since this forum has so many resources, I strive to find a use for them all. I'm still trying to come up with a good excuse to use the university and cube icons in ways that are not insulting.

    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:

    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" 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...
