All right - you guys have got me intrigued. I don't have Showtime so I'll wait and buy the blu box set in a few months.

Caught up now and yeah, this is true. I get now why they released the first four all together: by the end of this one, it feels like the freakout factor has been dealt with and the actual plot is in motion, while the old gang are starting to come back.
Little things like the background music in the breakfast scene and Bobby breaking up when he saw Laura's picture made it feel much more like the old series, as did the scene with Michael Cera which was, I thought, just so, so Lynch and Twin Peaks: "what's the most random, incongruous way we can explain away Michael Ontkean not coming back? How about have the most unsuitable actor possible turn up pretending to be Marlon Brando?"
I just realised now thought that there's 9 days to wait until the next episode. Boo!

Re: Twin Peaks season 3
I know some people hated that scene and said it had the worst acting ever in Twin Peaks but have they forgotten Billy Zane?
I liked it and the straightness of sheriff Truman was perfect for it

Re: Twin Peaks season 3
It made me laugh when I saw him kitted out like The Wild One, but it wasn't a very good Brando impression so wasn't as funny as it could have been.
Overall the first two were quite hard work because it just seemed a lot of random scenes stitched together ( they haven't returned at all to the jailed high school principle have they?), but 3 and 4 were much better and I'm intrigued to see where it will go.

Re: Twin Peaks season 3
I watched the first two episodes again and I think they are great. This kind of stuff is always more enjoyable 2nd time round because you have more of a handle on it but it has settled down a bit after the opening mono weirdo blast which really seemed like a statement of intent.
I hope we come back to the jailed principle because I thought there was promise there but it wouldn't surprise me if we didn't. I mean presumably those scenes where just giving you some idea of what Bob had been getting up to.

Principle?
No, it wasn't a good Brando in the Wild One impression but that may have been the point, taken with the rather ponderous Godfather references.

Re: Twin Peaks season 3
Got the boxset for the original twin peaks, watched the first 5 back to back, my head is again fried in a good way. There's something about the actors that lynch got that just seem perfect for their roles, big or small. Like they accept fully that their character is fucked up and they just jump in to It and just go with it. Not giving a fuck what they look like to the audience.

Re: Twin Peaks season 3
Bits and pieces are coming back to me as I watch it.
In the new twin peaks, I'm surprised Ontkean didn't come out of retirement for it.

Re: Twin Peaks season 3
Phillip Jefferies has been referenced quite a bit but I would be shocked and stunned if Bowie was in it

I can't tell if lynch is a bad amateur actor or playing his character perfectly.

Re: Twin Peaks season 3
Cole is one of my favourite characters.
There are some great scenes later on in the 2nd series
