Before The Return aired on may 21, we all had some wishes and hopes for the new season. Of course, not all of these hopes and wishes can be stated in a very concrete way. This topic deals with the wishes that are very concrete and are already or not yet fulfilled. The 'checklist' can be updated after each episode. If you had concrete wishes for The Return that are not on the checklist, please let me know (so I can add them). If there are errors or omissions in the checklist, please let me know.
The checklist consists of four categories:
1. Returning actors/characters that were part of the original run, and were announced to come back for season 3.
2. Deceased actors (How does the show deals with their characters?)

Some old plot threads that have not been resolved yet (and I doubt all of them will)
Did the tarentulas kill Leo?
Is ben the father of donna? (and does anybody care?)
How's Annie? (obligatory, sorry)
How was the relationship between Mike, Nadine, Ed and Norma solved?
What are MIKE's actual motivations and what is his true face?
Is the log lady's husband in her log?
What does the blue rose mean?
What are the owls?
Major briggs' vision of light about Bobby
And where is agent chet desmond?
What was the convenience store meeting actually about?
How much is Leland responsible for the murders?
What happened to Jeffries after he returned to Buenos Aires and why is afraid of Cooper
Who is the father of Lucy's child?
How was there a fish in the percolator?
How did Cole lose his hearing?
Who was the dark figure during the drug deal between bobby, mike and leo? (it was ben in the script)
From the books:

Who were the spirits around Dale and his mother?
Was Lana an assassin?
Major Briggs MAYDAY
The MJ-12

How much are Cole and Jeffries involved into the lodge conspiracy?
What happened to Denver Bob?
Where are the lodge gates ? (Of the alleged 7 we know of three plus one found by Crowley in Europe)
the old season 3 storyline with the planet made of corn, harry driving backwards through a corn field to get to the Lodge, harry coming to terms with Josie
