Yeah, I linked it up top.

 

The new show is dividing even hardcore fans. I love it, but I'm all in with most things Lynch. You have to be when there's an extended sequence in a casino of a shellshocked, near-catatonic Cooper getting jackpots at slot machines while guided by floating, flaming Black Lodge portals done up in (deliberately) wacky CGI.

 

From the final sequence in the Roadhouse with Shelly, James and co. in episode 2, the incredible music of Chromatics:

Heh-LLOOOOOOOOO.

 

third look-alike?

 

That journey out of the Black Lodge was never going to be easy. Cooper in that casino was amusing and at the same time harrowing.

 

I laughed a lot at the Lucy/Andy/Hawk scene. And what fun to see Gordon and Albert. For a second I thought Cooper would be trapped in the Black Lodge for episodes on end but I'm glad he's out and returning, although it (probably) isn't over yet. I wonder if the show will return to some of the more traditional Twin Peaks once Cooper makes his way back to town.

 

Now let's see how long I can hold off before episode 4.

Watched all 4 eps that were released yesterday and it was awesome.

 

Such a great reboot and I cannot wait for the rest of the episodes.

 

Also. Did anyone else laugh really really hard at the scene in episode 4 where...

binge watched the first 4 episodes and Madchen Amick (Shelly) still looks great as ever; the first part of episode 3 was way too artsy for my personal taste

 

unless they do another season, I guess we're supposed to assume Annie Blackburn (Heather Graham) is dead

The debut had low live numbers but very high streaming numbers - broke the box on new subscriptions. I expect another major drop in future weeks after the very strange premiere, but Lynch doesn't care about that and I'm not sure Showtime will either. I think they're in this for the prestige to compete with HBO - or so I was told a year or two ago - and I think it'll keep that. Whether or not they (or Lynch) will commit to another season, if Lynch wants one, is an open question. But I know this story is designed to be closed-ended as well, to not have to go on. If it doesn't that's fine.

I think Lynch would keep Twin Peaks going as long as Showtime would let him. Saw an interview saying he was blindsided by the first cancellation since he had more ideas, so they could just use those now

Lynch and Frost have said this show is a closed event and has a definite ending. But they've also suggested they could do more depending on the muse or interest. I think it's possible but may depend on a few factors.

 

Joe Adalian at Vulture breaks down the numbers. Low same-day, good streaming/subscriptions. He also reiterates what I've heard from the beginning, two or three years ago from people at the network - that Showtime is more interested in the prestige and buzz here to take them to an HBO level than they are the actual ratings. They knew it would be weird and not for everyone. Based on that, it's possible they could want a second helping (if Lynch is willing). FX also seems to enjoy losing money on critical darlings like the low-rated Americans, which I applaud them for sticking by.

I'm pretty sure they're talking about

Best theory I've heard about Audrey, which may or may not be nonsense, is that she is the billionaire who funded the Black Lodge box experiment in New York (to look for Cooper).

    • Definitely wouldn't trust Dinah right now haha.  But that's great to know Billy comes back soon!  I'm excited for that. If he's at the boardinghouse, then I guess he does get closer to Nola perhaps, and then he'll be around Peter/Bridget and J, who is currently in his orbit along with Michelle and Dahlia, and Marcus is at the boardinghouse, so maybe they go the teenage story route most of this time until Billy gets back.
    • Sounds like me, but I prefer to be referred to as Contessa. We all know I can go a long time not paying attention to certain things.  And, if I might add, hey there dude, you effed up pretty good this time and I think this was your last chance. So don't let the door hit you in your behind as you go BYE MOMMY!
    • That did cross my mind at first, but I'd be more inclined to believe it if this didn't involve Trump. I'm not at all sure he is capable of being that sneaky. Of course, there's always a possibility I guess that his advisors are doing it without telling him, but that seems awfully risky. Trump is such a loose cannon you can never predict what he's going to do or say.
    • Whoa. She should have fought like hell to get that. Was it the greatest show ever? No, but it had a fantastic cast and was practically guaranteed to last multiple seasons because of its star power. Could have certainly led to bigger and better things. If it had flopped she could have always gone back to soaps. Judith Light broke through on a sitcom where she was basically second banana to Tony Danza. That grew into a very busy and distinguished career. The woman is still regularly booked to this day.
    • I could understand her being frustrated by the fact that she'd been in the business 10+ years at that point, and probably couldn't even get in the door. But then again, she'd already gone out for pilot season once (that we know of) and she and  her agent knew a 35-ish woman had a very difficult time in Hollywood. I know she did a few guest spots, but other than Designing Women, nothing I saw--not even a Murder She Wrote, and that show had tons of ex-soapers on it. I mean, God bless Marilu Henner, but even having been on Taxi, she couldn't get arrested for years either.
    • I didn't rewatch that period, so I'm not really sure how much Bill is on. I recall something about him living at the boardinghouse. I think Van made Matt his guardian, and why she didn't name Josh would be a mystery to me, other than the HW decided they needed to keep Bill in Matt's sphere. Nola is also his aunt, although they don't know each other well, and Van wouldn't have trusted her anyway. There's Dinah---but she's unreliable. Billy gets out of jail around NYE.

    • That's on Kimmer. As someone posted above...she was offered roles in pilots but she would be part of an ensemble or supporting. She didn't want that so she came back to GL. I don't know what she thought would happen..someone offering her "Here's Kimmer!" or The "Zimmer Comedy Powerhouse Hour" variety show..but her housefrau fans did not have the same pull in HW as they did on the soaps. Forbes and Watros knew that you had to take small parts to get noticed ands start a career in primetime. I know she was in consideration for the wife in Evening Shade, but when you go up against Marilou Henner, the soap diva looses. I could see her frustrated in a role like that, where she has to be the understanding wife with a bit of sass, but she could have made it work, if it wasnt for her huge ego.  I think it would have been an issue haveing all the powerhouse comedy actors surrounding...(lets face it..Alice Ghostly woudl have wiped the floor with her...) but it would have been a good launching padd.
    • Oh good, so I don't have to wait too long haha. I'm glad she cares about seeing Bill graduate. I'm guessing I'm in for a bumpy ride between Bill and Matt, if he's going to be his caretaker? Who else could it be, maybe Josh?
