I think it's probably about right. I'm assuming this is just the extra stuff that was cut from the first book so as not to spoil the series. Yeah, I kind of assume the same. It is a bit of a bummer. I think Secret History could've used a good edit and lost 40 pages or so (wasn't it around 360?), bu...

why be driving around when that happens, and risk getting arrested? But, then again, he got arrested, and had dirt on the warden anyway .. so was that part of his plan? Or just poor plotting? Or do we accept that Doppelcoop has some sort of supernatural omnipotence Um... I thought that was obvious....

I see some debate about the time jumping in this episode. I'm pretty sure it was just some difficult editing decision made when cutting it into 18 parts. Sometimes thematic stuff is more important, sometimes you want very eventful stuff to all happen in the same episode (ala Part 11). I imagine that...

I think that's supposed to be the takeaway. I do think actually mentioning the time restriction would have helped though. And since this plan had been in place for like ten years, it might have made sense for EvilCoop to make sure the switch actually happened before going thru with the hit. But, if...

The rose picture looks like an interior title page (look at the texture of the page, it's not cover print). Pretty sure the Secret History had one as well, can't remember what it was of though (maybe it was a picture of the falls? or an owl?).

I agree with a couple of other posters. The hit on Dougie was contracted before he became DougieCoop, but Evil Coop knew what time that was going to happen, and the assassins were instructed to not kill him until after that time. I think that's supposed to be the takeaway. I do think actually menti...

I understand people's love of analyzing every minute detail, and far be it for me to rain on anyone's parade, but I really wouldn't put much stock into something like the phases of the moon. The original show was notorious in fan circles for showing close-up shots of the moon between scenes which w...

At this point, I don't even know. I think Tom Sizemore's character might take a shot at Dougie before Hutch does, as he's still on the hook (and was told that if he failed to get the Mitchum's to do it, he'd have to kill Dougie himself). Also, Dougie's prints were sent to the Justice Department quit...

Norma is just trying to get her taxes done! They're already late! She's filing then late!

Yeah, this was by far probably the roughest episode of the series. I've been enjoying it all so far, but, especially after coming off the sublime episode last week .. yikes. I was actively looking at my watch at points. The scenes didn't flow very well (something that most of the other episodes, des...

Pretty sure we saw Dale drink beer at the Roadhouse and Great Northern Bar in S2 a few times? I swear I got the idea somewhere he didn't drink alcohol. Might be misremembering a line or something, though. For what it's worth, when Leland has his trial (or maybe it's for Leo Johnson?) at the Roadhou...

What a fuckin fantastic episode. Had a smile on my face all the way through. I imagine we'll see Hawk/Truman/Briggs journey next week, and maybe things coming to a head with the hit out of Dougie and the Warden. also, Dougie has said unprompted stuff before in a Coop voice ("you're lying")...

To the people thinking Audrey is *still* in a coma, didn't the Secret History of Twin Peaks have a letter she wrote to Ben *after* she got out of the hospital? Or maybe I'm misremembering.

Anyway, I don't buy it for the slightest. Doc Hayward talked about it in past tense.

We are currently at viewership ratings panic and denial phase of the thread, time until phase is over: no ETA It's just making conversation, and some people find these metrics interesting. Nobody's panicking, it seems everyone is pretty rationally discussing how the viewing figures look, and whethe...

Interesting and highly accurate thoughts Ruddager. Does anyone have any ideas how to get US Showtime viewers to give the show a chance? It seems that the problem is not so much that they tuned in and didn't like what they saw, but rather that they didn't tune in in the first place. The shows rating...
