That's a great read, thank you! I didn't watch Carnivale regularly and I should have done. I can't remember if it was on Showtime and I didn't want to pay extra for the cable, or, something was just off there. Anyway, this: I'm surprised he hasn't appeared in his own movies since No, but he's there ...

Oh yes. But not since the show went off the air. Nor did I keep up with what happened to people afterwards or even knew there was a TP get together every year. A lot of life was happening to me and it sort of fell by the wayside. That's why I'm chiming in with wonder at not remembering key things th...

I always though that was a little odd that he would say he loves Laura. I mean, really? Yeah, he didn't kill her, but was sleeping with her, but as long as he didn't kill her. I hate that all of Ben and Jerry's evil deeds are just swept under the rug, and then only treated as comedic relief. So muc...

Which is a far cry (and why it seemed absolutely sincere to me) from what I thought Ben Horne's party line was and which he told Catherine during one of their sexual romps, "Business, pleasure, it's all the same to me."

I don't know if he had a three-way but he was married to a woman, and then had an affair with the Hamlin character. Gotta give 'em props at the time for trying to advance the notion of acceptance and not suppressing your true nature, soap-opera-ish as it appeared in later viewings.

I'll look for that film! Don't think I've seen or heard of it until now. I wonder now, years and years after the fact, what Ontkean thinks of Making Love.

Good Lord. I did not remember Ben Horne's admission about Laura Palmer. There was my answer to whether he cared about anyone but himself. Is there any man in Twin Peaks who was not in love with her? And the wait for the answer to Audrey's question is the best pause I've ever seen.

That's hysterical. I love this user comment: "Hey, Ontkean..keep your lecherous glances at Susan to yourself. She's mine!" Best thing I've liked Ontkean in besides Twin Peaks is a little-known movie with Amy Irving that I just loved (totally cheesy and romantic but hey, I was a lot younger...

Whoever mentioned Hawk, I totally agree. I'm up to Episode 14 and so far, every time he shows up, he grounds everything that's going on, or even saves the day in subtle ways (his most unsubtle save being when Audrey is rescued from One Eyed Jacks). Just a great character. The creepy and mysterious m...

LOVE the FWWM t-shirt. Too bad Halloween's over - the Bob T-Shirt would be perfect with a Jason hockey mask or something.

Aw, thanks Annie! No more counting from now on.

I x-posted right above you.

Now, I know I turned a year older today but didn't know I was this senile ... Good Grief. Thanks Audrey!! I found it - was doing something hinky with my remote. Now I can be creeped out fully by the scene.

Huh. That is exceedingly strange because I watched it again and it's just not there. At least not in my set.

(I wanna cry).

So what's the deal in Season 1, episode 8 with the Ben/Audrey scene missing? This would be where he's visiting the "new girl" and when she realizes it's her own father, puts on the white mask. I know because I've seen the clip on YouTube but it isn't on the disc. Sure doesn't make sense wh...
