Twin Peaks: Classic or Dud?

oh I remember james now :I

Shelly seems oddly unfazed by her abuse - like the husband is just farting or something

I don't think that's true. She's pretty clearly terrified of Leo although she might mentally check out sometimes. That's common for victims of abuse.

wtf guys, she shoots him!

or tries to anyway

spoiler! I actually know most ofthe story but in an odd twist I watched Fire walk with me first so watching season one is quite chronological for me- I love the chromaticity!

poro josie in the wood

Leo was one of the scariest things about the show.

Leo was scary when he went into full-on murderous psycho mode - esp. when he woke up from his coma (that whole sequence with the scattered birthday party remnants & swinging lightbulb was freaky as shit!), but when Eric Da Re was playing it straight, his acting was so abysmal that he came across as a comic buffoon more than anything. Sure he was a total dick to Shelly, but remember that [spoiler] he ended up with a faceful of tarantulas while Shelly & Bobby were chuckling gleefully w/ Heidi the German waitress, so all was right in the end!

I think Hank is way more scary than Leo - he just seems like a totally malicious guy

bob & coffee photo is a keeper

Hank is like evil Macgyver

just one look at BOB and i've got the heebie jeebies.

that actor died of AIDS a few years after the film -- in 95 i think.sad.

"WHERE"S JOSIE COOP!!!!!!!"

I wonder what the adventures of Bob in Cooper would be if there was a season three

log lady would have hit him on the noggin and they would have trapped bob in a jar.

and freed Josie?

until I recently rewatched the series I thought I imagined that.

Guys the audio book of Lynch's self-help/autobio/TM shill "Catching the Big Fish" is my fave iPod listen atm. Lynch reads.

"self-help guide"

best moment: "the suffocating rubber clown suit of negativity"

looks better than Avatar tbh

though I might just be enjoying cover connections w/

lol whoops

so what does she do all day in the knob? she must be so bored

I just learned that James is one of the privates in A Few Good Men charged with carrying out a Code Red. Pretty cute once shorn of his Corey Hart hair.

I am so bored with the James Corey side plot of fixing that ladies car. No wonder people stopped liking the show during season 2

^^^low point of the show

Agreed--although the blonde was pretty great looking. (My other low point is a high point for some people: Ben's Civil War fixation.)

The civil war story line is saved by Dr Jacoby's presence.

Civil War thing cracks me up, there are a few episodes where it provides the only decent sequences

carrot or cigar, got nothing but love for ben horne

Doing a rewatch with friends, first one in over a decade for me... tbh was planning to do all of season 1, then skip to last 2 episodes of season 2 then FWWM. Folly on my part?

all of season 1, then skip to last 2 episodes of season 2

uh yes, this is totally wrong, as the first part of season 2 contains the reveal re: Bob and Leland's death, the arc leading up to that is fantastic

Well, then you don't get 2.7, the "reveal" episode, which is pretty stunning if you ask me. (xp!)

Agreed 100%. If you really want to skip eps, probably watch until the reveal and then pick it up again towards the end although I don't know exactly where to suggest.

problem is the windom earle/black lodge storyline starts up pretty soon after the laura palmer storyline wraps up, it's just woven through all the pine weasel etc silliness

Season 2 episode 1 may be the best in the series.

"warmed it up for ya"

For better or worse, I'd advise you to watch it all, in order.
