It’s the final episode of season one! I don’t know at what point planning began on season two, so my assumption before viewing is that this is all going to get wrapped up semi-neatly, with some light dangling threads to pick up next time around. Let’s find out!

Continue readingI’ll be honest, I’m starting to lose interest in this show. I’m coming to terms with maybe nothing ever being wrapped up cleanly, but I’m not sure I really care about the mysteries we’ve accrued so far. I’ll see this season out as I’m over halfway, but at this point I’m not committing myself to seasons two and three. We’ll see.
Another episode watched on a train (I’m doing a lot of that recently, don’t ask), but this time the train was pretty deserted. Here are my thoughts on the third episode, which is technically the fourth episode if you count the pilot, so I’m not sure exactly what number I’m on. Anyway.
Continue readingI think we’ve reached the point where this show is actively trying to shake me off, but I’m not going anywhere yet! I’d heard mention of some kind of “Red Room” in Lynch’s work at some point, but I didn’t know in what it would appear (there was every chance it was a scene from Mulholland Drive that I’d forgotten) but nope, it’s here, and it is distinctly weird. More on that later, for now let’s get into my thoughts on Twin Peaks Season 1, episode 2!
Continue readingMy Twin Peaks first-time watch continues! I’m still happy I’m watching and, as predicted, this episode poses far more questions than it offers solutions, but then we’re only two episodes in, so I wasn’t exactly expecting the loose ends to be tied up any time soon. Here are my thoughts:
And so it begins, my journey into Twin Peaks! At this point in time I’m not sure exactly how I’m going to tackle this – I don’t intend to do a full play-by-play episode breakdown, more just talking about my thoughts as we go, and making any predictions based on what I’ve seen. These posts will not be spoiler free, but I’ll only be covering spoilers up to the episode I’m discussing, as I won’t have seen anything beyond it! As such, please refrain from any future spoilers in your comments, thanks!
So full disclosure, I have seen this episode once before, however I wasn’t really paying attention to it and literally all I remembered was that a girl was found dead. As for what I know about future episodes (based mainly on interactions with the French Toast Sunday crew who are mostly massive Twin Peaks fans, even having been to a special Twin Peaks-themed event when they visited London 10 years ago), I was aware of Kyle MacLachlan showing up as a detective of some kind and having an affinity for pie and coffee, and that there would be a lady carrying a log, for reasons that I assume will never be explained (I believe Lindsay from FTS dressed up as this so-called Log Lady for a party one year). I was thrilled to meet said Log Lady in the first episode, and I look forward to future bizarre interactions with her.
