    Re: TV: The Golden Era Reborn

    Season 1 is great...I stopped season 2 after like 4 episodes because it is awful. I didnt even watch the movie because no I know liked it. I plan to try again before the revival happens...

      Exactly. Season 1 was amazing, first 5-6 episodes of season 2 were great, then a giant pile of crap up til the finale. Some call the hour long finale Lynch's greatest work, I'm not quite there.
      I'm so ready for next Sunday!!!

        I've seen all 30 original episodes. I don't recall hating S2 as much as some do, though I'll agree it wanders a bit aimlessly after Lynch was forced to reveal the killer, and thus he lost interest in overseeing the show. I kinda felt like if I were to watch again, I'd just fast-forward through anything involving Donna and James. Things like Ben and Nadine losing their minds are comedy relief to me, and part of the "weirdness" of Twin Peaks, but I can see why some people wouldn't like those arcs. The show started to fix itself somewhere around Ep. 25, but it was too late at that point.

          You're spot on. It did start to recover the last 5 or so.

          Nadine and Bens story lines were hilarious. Donna and James was terrible. Also not a huge fan of windham Earle.

          Really happy David Duchobvy is back for the new series. Notable people who aren't: Heather Graham, Michael Ontkean.

            Pretty sure we won't be seeing Piper Laurie as Catherine either, which is a shame, but she is 85.

                  A few years ago on a trip to Seattle, I went up to Snoqualmie Falls on a scenic drive. After I came home from the trip, I learned they were used in the title card sequence for this show that I'd heard mentioned in passing, but never seriously looked into. So that's when I watched the old run on Netflix.

                      Back in the mid- to late-80s it was a huge hit, almost like Game of Thrones is these days. Only the subject matter was entirely different. I was never allowed to watch it as a kid, and I've not yet taken the time to watch it as an adult.

                        I was allowed to watch as a kid. Such a great, weird series

                          It was the original "cult" TV show. As the big hair/big hat soaps and cheesy police procedurals of the 80s were winding down and the 90s started, Twin Peaks was sort of a mix (at times, a spoof) of those genres, but much more blue-collar in setting, and with elements of comedy, horror, and "what's lurking out there in the forest" weirdness.

                          So you know...David Lynch's mind in a nutshell.

                            You should watch. Season one is amazing. There's a character who carries around a log and says it talks to her.
                            Also has David duchovy as a cross dressing special agent.
                            The fact lynch is doing this on showtime is pretty exciting.

                              Then watch the Psych episode Twin Spires which has a bunch of the cast and is one long love letter/homage to Twin Peaks.

                              Personally besides Log Lady I always liked the woman who hated that blinds were so loud! Plus Ray Wise rules! LAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURA!!!!!!
