None are time wasters. The sweeping scene tested my patience, which means it worked. After so much exposition in Part 7 we needed to slow down and return to the natural pace of life.

The shovel scene is pushing it, but all in all I'm not too bothered by it. The scene with the dog lady in episode 1, however, has been skipped in most of my rewatches. Cringey, tryhard and unfunny.

I didn't mind that scene so much because it was just when the show was starting out. The punchline was kind of humorous, with her having the key all along (which I'm sure many have thought to have a larger meaning in the show). What I'm wondering is if the whole Bill Hastings/Ruth Davenport plotline was just a total waste of time, as it looks unlikely that we'll circle back around to the poor guy.

Yeah, I didn't even think of that as a scene. More a transition. It's likely an acquired taste, of which I've not yet acquired.

Time waster, a middle class concept if there ever was any.

Haven't had a problem with any scenes up until the Andy/Lucy chair scene. Especially when the Andy truck investigation is still lingering away and could have been concentrated on no matter how briefly.

However Lucy eating her lunch are my favourites moments of hers so far.

I got a little impatient at the scene with Jerry's foot and the other of him saying he's high.

Actually, with all that happened in Part 7, that scene where Jerry tells Ben he is high is actually my favorite scene of that entire hour. Love the sound and the scenery.

I also suspect that scene will have significance to the plot at some point.

The Jerry scenes are among my favourites and the Nine Inch Nails was great, too.
Like before, I wouldn't have picked any of the three mentioned in the poll. However, the red/beige chair scene was real crap for me. Hate to say :(

At the moment it's the fly-chasing scene from Part 10 for me. I'm not interested in the Mitchums and Candie, and the other scenes listed in the poll were at least taking place in Twin Peaks. All the Dougie and Janey-E scenes seem like tame wasters to me as well, because I don't care for that storyline. I'd prefer Cooper to wake up or at least be in a different setting. If we can't have that, I'd rather see more of the other characters than Dougie and Janey-E.
