Hi all. Just thought I'd start a thread to discuss the coronavirus since it's scary and it's now worldwide. If you need to talk, please post here. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/erasing-stigma/202003/controlling-coronavirus-anxiety Right now, a possible Season 4 seems a distant concern...

Done

I wonder if Bob Iger resigning as CEO might clear the way for Disney to pick up Twin Peaks?

Agent Earle wrote:Please, Bob... Not another boxset release that just rehashes the old stuff. I have enough existing TP releases to last me a couple of lifetimes.

But this would be the ULTIMATE Super Mega Platinum release LOL

Twin Peaks Worldwide is not credible or worth discussing. That may be so, but their viral campaign to "Bring Back Twin Peaks" in the mid-10s -- when everybody else was still proclaiming the property's death -- was uncanilly visionary, I'd say. I think it’s completely different people runn...

Not much to discuss until we can read the book ourselves.

Lol. I just checked out, the significance of Graceland and it seems it’s Elvis Presley’s estate. Is that an odd location to host such a thing? Trivia time. Did You Know...? Russ Tamblyn helped Elvis practice the Jailhouse Rock choreography. Charlotte Stewart had a deep talk with Elvis while shootin...

Just watched the penultimate episode of The Good Place . The gang finally ascend into the Good Place (in other words, heaven) and on their way into a welcome party they pass bowls of labelled goodies. The first says: Energy You Had When You Were Twelve. The second says: Fully Understand the Meaning...

Do you want to take a stab yet at what it 'means'?

Mr. Reindeer wrote:Just occurred to me that the talking capuchin monkey very much resembles the chap from FWWM who whispers, “Judy”! I don’t think there’s a serious connection, but one of those fun recurring Lynch motifs.

Yes, that hit me right away.

For me, an area where I feel the fear/mystery was lacking was with regard to the Doppelganger. BOB/Leland in the original series was a perpetrator of cosmic evils (incest, murder, rape). Evil Coop in the Return looked like a drug runner from Scarface - particularly in the Buenos Aires photo Albert ...

Cappy wrote:Now I am curious what the original plans were for Philip Gerard -- maybe he was only supposed to appear at the end of ep. 17, where he recites his poem and guides Cooper to Philip Jeffries?

I was actually thinking the same thing.

Note that Veronica Mars was actually able to pull this off successfully for its second season, before ditching the formula for its third and final season. So it definitely could have been done- a new murder, a new mystery... And it worked again for Veronica Mars' fourth and hopefully not final seas...

Twin Peaks never had a formula, per se , but I think the basics of what a lot of fans wanted was another mystery in Twin Peaks, with Cooper teaming up with the Sheriff's station to solve the crime. Note that Veronica Mars was actually able to pull this off successfully for its second season, before ...

I did. I understand it was him voicing his personal feelings, but the mag presented it as a 'critical' essay and I found it anything but. It had a lot of fallacies in thought. For instance, the new series is put under this hyper-scrutinizing and often pessimistic lens that the old series isn't flay...
