Considering how Lynch and Frost made up for the absence of Michael J. Anderson, I have a feeling that if Phillip Jeffries is required to be onscreen, they might go for a similarly creative solution, rather than a recast.

But who knows?

YOU CAN'T PREDICT THIS SHOW.

Riveting episode. VERY intrigued by how it looks like Andy now has all of the facts about Bob, Cooper and Laura downloaded into his brain. Jackrabbit's Palace looks like a tree that's been struck by lightning. Could be related to the constant electrical weirdness here. The window washer scene was bo...

Some people refer to "The Return" as season 3, while the creators themselves call it an 18-hour feature. The difference: A feature film has an ending. Personally, I have zero expectations for more Twin Peaks after this. There's something about it that feels "final" to me, from th...

So, what DO people think? One person hinted at distressing ratings news in a post some pages back on here without any elaboration whatsoever, but I haven't seen any concrete info at all. Anyone know how Twin Peaks: the Return is doing? Showtime reported their biggest day and weekend of new subscrip...

Cooper isn't merely adjusting to the world after twenty-five years. There's something wrong with him that might be beyond any human effort to overcome. When he passed through the electrical socket in Ep. 3, most of his mind and overall consciousness did not come with him. If that was taken away from...

Something about the ending of ep. 11 felt to me like a send-off for "Dougie". It was such a happy scene. Everyone wins. Even the gangsters win. Bushnell Mullins has been helped by Dougie. The woman from the casino shows up to thank Mr. Jackpots. There's the sad piano music adding a bitters...

Apologies if I'm the 120th person to post this, but the title of the next episode "Laura is the one" is extra interesting because it turns up in the Log Lady intro for the pilot (just discovered this today, while at home recovering from an old man injury and watching some old favorite TP e...

People keep pointing how parts of THE RETURN recall earlier Lynch works. The Jerry Horne high in the forest gag = mild DUMBLAND vibes. Just a quick, silly joke. No farting, but that "I am not your foot" voice is almost certainly Lynch. It reminds me of the high-voiced character in the seri...

My favorites are the ones that strike the most powerful chords with what's happening in the series. The Chromatics song is not only lovely, but it comes off to me as Lynch's signpost that this is his final work in the world of TWIN PEAKS (the chorus: "for the last time, for the last time")...

I'm actually surprised at how positive the reaction has been. After Episode 8 (which I loved), I was bracing myself for people on the internet to hate it. Then, I searched the hashtag on Twitter and people were GUSHING about it. Obviously nothing is universally loved, but I feel that the overall sca...

So now that evil coop has been busted out of jail, I'm wondering what you think his next moves might be? Where is he headed? Buenos Aires so he can connect with Phillip Jefferies and (not) talk to him about Judy? Or back to twin peaks? He's meeting up with Jennifer Jason Leigh and her husband. I do...

It seems like anyone in Twin Peaks World who wears or even touches the green ring either dies or disappears. If we accept the FWWM "MIssing Pieces" as canon (and I do), it seems like a real possibility that Annie might no longer be among the living. Even if the ring was stolen from her. Bu...

Recurring theme: Parents losing their children. - Laura Palmer in the original series - The little boy who gets run over at the intersection here by the hopped-up guy (UNSUBSTANTIATED FAN OBSERVATION I JUST READ: That intersection is the same one from Fire Walk With Me where Mike screams at Leland i...

Naomi Watts chastising the crooked debt collectors = Robert Loggia's tirade against the tail-gater in Lost Highway, minus the blood.

MY IDEAL TWIN PEAKS ENDING:

David Lynch works out a deal with Showtime to make more movies.

Sorta like Woody Allen and Amazon.
