    I should watch this show again. I watched it when it was new on TV but I was really too young to understand any of it.

    Best thing Lynch has ever done.
    In my opinion

    Agent Cooper is one of my favorite characters in media.

    Short stack of griddle cakes, melted butter, maple syrup lightly heated, slice of ham. Nothing beats the taste sensation when maple syrup collides with ham.

    Eh. Neither of them stays the same kind of person throughout the show. They're definitely never actually good people, though.

    bobby arguably gets worse as a person

    leo gets comeuppance in a completely fucked up way but still remains a shitty individual

    Bobby
    has his status as king shit of high school coke mountain trashed pretty much day one into the show. He gets out in the real world, finds out he doesn't amount to shit, and has to deal with that. He's definitely a bitter snot toward Leo while they're taking care of him and a calculating but ineffectual douchebag when trying to set up deals with Benjamin Horne, but he has these kind of inept epiphanies about his relationships with his father and Shelly.

    Leo
    isn't even really a person for most of the second season. I don't think he's a changed person or anything. He's just this fucked up zombie thing that doesn't even really qualify as operating under his own motivations. I mean, there's a bit of him left in there, but you said you weren't at the end yet, so I won't say anything else.

    bobby
    bobby kinda just becomes this embodiment of greed and kinda manipulates shelly and everyone around him except audrey because she sees through all the bullshit, his only real glimpse of redemption is with his father but after he has the talk with his mom I haven't really seen anything else about it
    lwo
    and yeah I can see that with leo, but when he actually starts to do things again he still acts awful and weak
    when earl tells him to get the bolt to kill the roadie guy he initially refuses but then capitulates
    he hasn't even tried to escape from earl yet but yeah it might change so I dunno

    They shot a lot of that show around here.

    One day my older brother, who was a big fan of the show, was riding the bus to work.

    A guy gets on at a stop and sits down next to him.

    It's Bob.

    You know. This guy.

    My brother was just reading his book, then happened to look over and realize who it was.

    Scared the living shit out of him.

    A couple of weeks back I processed a report from a David Lynch from Oceanside, California. It has his address and phone number on it. I've been having a real crisis about breaking my contract and calling him, just to see if it's THE David Lynch.

    Give the address to me, I'll go stake the house out.

    I watched like a half episode of this

    I keep thinking I should love his work from what I've heard, but I still haven't seen any of it at all

  • MachwingMachwing It looks like a harmless old computer, doesn't it? Left in this cave to rot ... or to flower!Registered User regular
    Note: Lynch only directed like six episodes, and I think they were all in the first season

    It's well worth watching! Not even particularly long, either, two seasons.

    If anything, it was less weird than I'd been expecting. From everything I'd heard I kept expecting it to go straight to "what the fuck" crazytown and defy all explanation, but aside from the dream sequences it's pretty easy to follow.

    For some reason I'd never connected Kyle MacLachlan to Dune until someone posted that re-dub video a while ago and my immediate reaction was hey that's Cooper!

    The twin peaks movie is so great. Actually, every david lynch movie, with the exception of the straight story, is fantastic

    I'm pretty sure he directed more in the second season than the first, but yeah, only six or so total. But it's television. His role as a producer clearly bore out more influence than the handful he directly wrote or directed.

    The Straight Story is pretty good.

    I thought I'd give this a try, and so far it is so fucking weird

    but I like it. And I love Agent Cooper. Dude is delightfully wacky.

    Was it good?

    I was eyeing it after we finished the series and had heard mixed things about the movie, so we ended up not watching it.

    I still haven't seen the movie. I need to get on that. But all I need to know is if it has cream corn in it?

    also lynch is such an insane perfectionist that him not officially directing that many doesn't mean much
