I would have loved if it was Josie too!
Wait, so it's confirmed that it's not Josie?

Finally read through this whole thread. Have barely slept in the last 2 days. And have only watched the episodes once! Some people have already rewatched them!
I have no idea where this will lead us, but I have a definite feeling it will be a place both wonderful and strange.

Is that in the credits? Or someplace else? I don't recall it being mentioned in the episode.

IMDB has her listed for that episode under the character name Naido and I can't sort out that being anybody else.

Was that Donna or Audrey flirting with James and the other dude at the end of episode 2?

Have watched first 3 episodes, so far the third is the best. Have to say all are good, the third is the closest to Twin Peaks I got.

Anyone know the name of the song on the third episode during the credits?

I think so yes. Not Dougie himself, but the reactions, or non-reactions, of the people around him are more absurd than anything in S2 to me. Is his wife also an idiot? Her husband can't dress himself, talk, or go to the bathroom on his own and she doesn't call a doctor? I also think some of the Lucy humor is more broad then her stuff from the original.
Just to play Devil's Advocate...

In the S2 opener, we had a room service waiter oblivious to the fact that Agent Cooper was shot, bleeding and possibly dying right in front of him. In Wild At Heart, we had the Sherilyn Fenn character focusing on finding a hairbrush while bruised and bleeding from a car accident and in need of immediate medical attention.

It's absurdist but there is a certain reality to it too- people sometimes react in unexpected ways- or don't react at all- under intense pressure or under life's ordinary pressures. I had a cousin who had a tumor the size of a grapefruit in his head, and was exhibiting very odd behavior for a long time, but no one thought to get him a check up until it was almost too late.

It's in the credits. She plays the rambling homeless woman towards the end of INLAND EMPIRE.

Isn't there a character in an early Lynch short film that speaks in a very similar way to this character?

Weren't we all speculating last year that JJL might be playing 'Judy'.

Guess that one got blown out of the water pretty early.

I think my biggest problem with the new show is the disconnect. Which I wasn't expecting. One thing about the original show that made me love it so much was the emotional connection. To the characters, town, music. Even in the second half of season 2 when the storyline wasn't as strong, I still loved it because the characters were so endearing, and the music so memorable. Even the more serious FWWM had Laura at its emotional center. But the new show is so stylized and unnatural, and with no music, that I loose that emotional component. Even with our original characters, Lynch has them deliver their lines in such stilted manner that it takes away from caring about them. On top of that playing Lucy even more broadly than she was before. I don't hate it, but I hate that I don't love it.

I love the doofy post-Lodge Cooper. He's a straight man in a world of absurdities. I see references to Tati, Paris, Texas, and Being There.

I'm also not getting all the hang ups on the cgi. It takes up very little screen time and it is not intended to look like anything we are used to seeing. Why not approach with an open mind?
