Finally our guy David Lynch and us are manning the barricades against the tide of normies. I've spent the last couple of days just reading all the normie reviews I can find and oh man haha this abstract imagery is just too much for them. No one gets this show like I do because I'm better than them because I'm weird and have poor social skills, am ugly and can't attract the opposite sex. Watching David Lynch shows and films is my only salvation and you can't enjoy it because you don't understand it llike I do because I'm special NORMIESSESS REEEEEE

Is James Comey the real life Dale Cooper?

So is the black lodge like monsters inc where they have various demons go around creating suffering?
If BOB is the top dog does this mean there's minimum wage demons who do minor things like making people trip and break their wrist and spitting in food?

You faggots are a bunch of blind followers of Lynch who won't accept that "Twin Peaks: The Return" is a total disaster. This is the final proof that rebooting old series is a really *really* bad idea, since not even Lynch can do it right.
TPTR is not Twin Peaks: it's a bland, sad, and pathetic attempt of self-celebration in the form of an artificial continuation of an unfinished old work. So old that you, the creator, can't even remember correctly. Ironically, at a metalanguage level, the topics of this reboot perfectly reflect what reboots per se are: concretely, a doppelganger, product of a creative void. It's not Cooper who is lost here, it's David Lynch himself. Maybe this is his unconscientious talking...
I will tell you one thing, Sup Forums: after watching the first episode I was actually deceived for a moment, as I thought it was going to be great; maybe it was going to be more in the direction of FWWM, but I was OK with that. But then, after episode two I started to realize what was really going on here. At episode three, I started to cry and almost turned off my TV, as I finally understood what was happening here: it was the dead of one of the greatest artists of the 20th century.

It's unlike anything you can see these days on the telly. But not in a good way. It's one thing to do an old-fashioned show, or homage maybe - it's quite another to do something completely anti-modern. Each scene takes years to unfold and it's by design. The long still shots of nothing really happening, the actors staring blankly into the distance, the inane dialogue where every word is uttered like it has some utmost hidden significance... It's not how I remember "Twin Peaks". There used to be humour and suspense in there, too. I can imagine two kinds of people being attracted to this. The first is the nostalgic souls that will tune in to look for the hallmarks of the series they used to love. They'll be disappointed. The majority of old cast is here but they don't seem to serve any narrative purpose, not that there's any narration to be served. In short, it's like looking at the dolls in a wax museum, only they're moving somewhat and saying things. The brownish set design is also here, but it looks quite uneasy on the eyes this time around. The second kind is, of course, the hipsters. The smug, elitist bunch who think adoring the self-important experimentalist, that is David Lynch, gives them a pass to some kind of intellectual heaven. I don't know how many of them are there left, though, it's 21st century after all. Nevertheless, they'll likely to relish the idiotic lines of dialogue in which they'll inevitably find some "clues" they're supposed to pick up on and collect towards the series' finale, where there will undoubtedly be some big cathartic payoff. Seeing that the original series didn't end with a payoff but a cliffhanger, I don't see any reason that this one should either. Resolving things is not what charlatans like Lynch do. They'd be found out if they were. Anyway, all in - fair warned, you could have already seen where this was going with the abysmal "Fire Walk With Me" feature film. If you're a hipster, do continue to watch.

First, big fan of the original one. Can't say I'm surprised this one is as bad as the other reboots/remakes.
There are plenty of new hipsterish characters that I can't relate to. A story-line that feels like you are watching something between CSI, Dexter and Desperate Sex in the City. Not Twin Peaks. NOT BY A LONG SHOT.
If you are growing a beard, like bad music, wearing skinny jeans and pretending you watched the original one, even though you weren't even born back then, have a horrible style and no substance, then yeah, you're gonna like the new one.
As for me personally... It officially ended when Dale head-butted the mirror. It was a good show. One of the best, if not the best. But it ended then and there. The new one feels more like it is a bad parody of the original one with some marketing elements for the hipster audience.
The only character this show might be worth watching for is Ray Wise's, because he's an incredible actor and always delivers. Yet everything else is so wrong about this reboot that I just want it to end ASAP so we all can forget season 3 ever existed.
Colton Gomez
Probably some interrogation tactic.

Nonexistent: experimental garbage or his best work?
Grayson Torres
FWWM is actually pretty tame by comparison. At most it has more in common with the Theresa Banks scenes than the Laura storyline.
Easton Phillips
Nah, Bob only displays as male in his spirit form because it's more intimidating and is far more capable of well violence (Penetration.) Bob is genderless and immaterial.
He wanted to take over Laura because she seemed to have the majority of the town wrapped around her finger and wanted to use that to spread more corruption and sorrow.

That wonderful British word, "twaddle", seems tailor made for Twin Peaks 2017.
A show this vapid, devoid of plot and vacant of dialog deserves something more than just ordinary words like, "nonsense", "drivel", or "garbage".
I can imagine a group of fifth grade boys hopped up on Red Bull coming up with this amalgam of sound effects, over-the-top graphics, and misanthropic demi-monsters.
I turned it off after 45 minutes so I'm guessing I missed the vampire and zombie scenes and the part where a caped superhero comes in and saves the buxom babe in a thong.
This show is representative of so many things that are wrong with Hollywood and the entertainment industry that it should be cataloged in the Library of Congress as a documentary on that subject.
Colton Flores
Good stuff. I made a James album cover but this one is really cool.
Ethan Phillips
Whatever happened to Devendra Banhart? I was a fan of him like 10 years ago.

>This show is representative of so many things that are wrong with Hollywood and the entertainment industry Honestly, this is a valid point. The show only got made because Lynch sold out (pic related). And that's after years of touting himself as an auteur.

It's marketing in a film which you are trying to enjoy.

Doesn't matter what he was trying to do, the show looks like a marketing gimmick. No wonder there are no commercials because they were already hamfisted into the show.
Landon Price
I love how you guys have an explanation for the product placement and crap, when you would have been bitching about it for anything else.

David Lynch's directed several commercials, so I doubt he cares about product placement.

Because it's okay when Lynch does it. Not even joking.

Lynch is a master of cinema and finally did product placement right, we should all be grateful

I don't remember the roadhouse ever being that packed in the old series, and everyone there seems pretty young. Did it go from the local hangout to a "rustic" hot spot for hipsters?

I better not be getting trolled into watching some fucking pointless experimental artsy garbage with no coherent story and lack of substance being masked by "style"
I'm not defending it, it could have been mandated for Showtime as a small price for Lynch having complete creative control. But you have to realize, not every real brand being shown in a show is paid advertising. Hell, Mad Men was a show about advertising, and no product in the entire run of the show was paid product placement. Sometimes real brands just look better than generic logo-less shit. That takes me out of what I'm watching even more.
Besides, if you were a car company, why would you want your product to be shown being driven by a murderous lunatic? Unless that goes back to the first point, and it was Lynch purposely shitting on something he needed to do.
Owen Miller
Reminder that product placement is bullshit.
