neilnunb Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 I can't find the previous thread... Starts tonight. Broadcasting at 2am so we're getting it at the same time as the US. Double episode followed by episodes 3 and 4. Who's in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilnunb Posted May 21, 2017 Author Share Posted May 21, 2017 Think I should have re-watched the originals but maybe that's a good thing as a bit worried my memories of it will be tarnished by this new one. Fingers crossed though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers crossed though. Memories of it being one of the most over rated series ever ? This and news of a Mama Mia 2 movie mean it's good to see those involved in the entertainment industry still think people will watch anything produced or have not lost their sense of humour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cade Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 So.....a nuclear test in 1945 broke the barriers between the white lodge and the real world, allowing Bob to escape. The Giant and some woman then created Laura Palmer's soul and sent it to earth to counterbalance Bob. This soul reached earth in 1956 as an egg which hatched a cockroach/frog hybrid thing. Other agents of the Lodge arrived and put the local people to sleep via a radio message. The cockroach/frog thing then crawled into the mouth of a sleeping girl (Laura's mum to be?). Absolutely ******* bonkers but terrific at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chester™ Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Just watched episode 8. Holy ****. Weird as shit. He's just making this up as he goes along, isn't he? Its, undoubtedly, one of the best cinematic pieces of TV I've ever seen. I was absolutely gripped from start to finish. And, imo, he's not making it up.

In terms of the story line, I just can't help but wonder how different it could have been if Lynch hadn't caught a glimpse of Frank Silva in the mirror, when filming the early scene with Sarah Palmer back in the original series.

Peebo Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 After the previous episode being one of the most stunning things I've ever seen, episode 9 was one of these utterly dull, filler-type episodes that seem to be rife in many of the best TV series, these days.

Cade Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 No way, man! Tons of questions got answered this week. The Major has been hibernating at the entrance to the White Room for 25 years, trying to get help for Cooper. He also let slip that there are two Coopers. The White Room is revealed to be a different dimension. He also knew what would happen in the future and left very clear instructions of how to get to the White Room. The Twin Peaks PD are on the case! Dougie Jones had a terrible car accident 12 years ago with severe head trauma and has episodes of near catatonia, which is why nobody seems bothered at him being a vegetable now he's actually Cooper. Evil Cooper is also revealed to be the man taking out hits on Dougie. It's all coming together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thehibsareintheirbeds Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Stayed up to watch them last night and totally in two minds about it all. Might need another viewing. Some 90s style special effects worthy of the original series-plenty highs, plenty lows but mostly lots of wtfs. Series 4 please mr lynch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cade Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Outstanding stuff. Lots of threads wrapped up at the end. (Evil Coop, BOB, Green rubber glove cockney bloke, Major Briggs, Diane, Andy&Lucy, Dougie clone going back to Jane-E and Sonny Jim) Lots more still left hanging. (Laura, Audrey, Good Coop, Sarah) Lynch is a teasing bassa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peebo Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Mixed feelings about The Return. On balance, I found it disappointing overall. Some bits of amazing tv: the Gotta Light? episode probably best bit of tv I've ever seen, any scene with Sarah Palmer (really quite scary scene when Hawk visits her), the significance of the names of the people living in the house in final scene. However, some crap bits in there and lots of filler: the floating Bob-ball being smashed by the Hulk-handed cockney was just (apparently) random nonsense, lots of (apparently) pointless characters, David Bowie being a ****ing kettle, and Mike's ****ing arm being a ****ing tree (with some sort of talking body part)?!? I mean what the actual ****! Too much quirky weirdness, not enough sinister darkness. Will still be watching season 4, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
