I liked the Dual Spires episode, but I get the vibe that 70% of it flew over my head.

It's always nice to see Ray Wise, though.

Same here. - Stephen Dec 3, 11:45 29
- I also get the feeling I would hate Twin Peaks if I ever watched it. -- nm - David Dec 3, 11:49 28
  - Yeah, i'm not a big fan of shows that try too hard to be different. - Stephen Dec 3, 11:56 6
    - The thing with David Lynch is that it's like watching a movie made by the Star Trek aliens that only spoke in metaphor. - Reagen Dec 3, 12:21
    - I think it's fine if it's organic; when it's forced, well it's the last scene of Dual Spires. -- nm - David Dec 3, 11:57 3
      - Right. - Stephen Dec 3, 12:00 1
        
        oh, so very wrong, I promise. -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 12:01
      - the last scene was a reference orgy. -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 11:58
    - oh, it really wasn't about that. It was very different, yes, but not for its own sake. -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 11:57
  - it's for smart people with taste - pixmas Dec 3, 11:53 18
    - very solid 1st season and some ok stuff in the 2nd season. -- nm - Remlik Dec 3, 11:55 8
      - second season was good until the central mystery was solved ... then it went off into unicorn land. -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 11:56 7
        
        even before that the reveal was toally a let down -- nm - Remlik Dec 3, 11:57 6
        
        I always thought the problem was they focused on Laura Palmer too much - amoxy Dec 3, 12:00 2
        
        agreed...she should have remained an enigma -- nm - Remlik Dec 3, 12:07
        
        it was intended to be a one-season run ... trying to extend it is what made it go south. -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 12:01
        
        the search for the answer really was so much better. -- nm - Remlik Dec 3, 11:58 1
        
        OK, true. And the creepiest scenes *by far* were in other episodes. Bob was the creepiest thing - loosilu Dec 3, 11:59
        
        hmmm, I actually liked it. a lot. -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 11:58
    - James Harrison will give you my reply on Sunday. -- nm - David Dec 3, 11:54 8
      - if he doesn't retire first -- nm - pixmas Dec 3, 11:55 7
        
        Ravens fans should be so lucky. -- nm - David Dec 3, 11:57 6
        
        cause he lit them up so bad at home in the first game -- nm - pixmas Dec 3, 11:58 5
        
        Exactly. -- nm - David Dec 3, 12:02 4
        
        if all that means is we win again, godspeed Helmet-to-Helmet Man -- nm - pixmas Dec 3, 12:06 3
        
        Nah, the better team will win on Sunday. You guys should draft a secondary. -- nm - David Dec 3, 12:16 2
        
        oh we have one. Roddy White pushes them down and doesn't get flagged for it, but they are there -- nm - pixmas Dec 3, 12:23 1
        
        What I love about that complaint is that it ignores the 70 yards Atlanta got with virtual no resistance prior to that play. - David Dec 3, 12:26
  - hmmmm. it's not for everyone. -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 11:52 1
    - It was nice to see Robyn Lively again and realize I've largely forgiven her for Teen Witch. -- nm - David Dec 3, 11:52
So, par for the course? -- nm - Spawn Dec 3, 11:45
