I want to spend more time with the first two episodes before going on to 3 and 4. Talking about rewatching and percolating. Plenty of time before #5 is available.

Some people have a fear of snakes. That was a somewhat rational fear. And you could do something about it at least. Stay away from long grass and nature documentaries. Easy. Others have a fear of heights. That was manageable too. Avoid tall ladders. But how do you cope when your fear is something you can’t avoid? That you have no hope of staying away from? Being afraid of the sky, where are you going to go?

I've already rewatched the first two episodes.  They definitely grew on me when I saw 3 and 4 and understood what they where going for. 

It feels so weird watching new episodes of this. I saw the first seasons 10 years ago so I can't imagine how weird it must feel if you actually saw this 25 years ago.

I Started watching the the original series when I heard about the new series on Showtime. I'm currently on episode 3 of the 2nd season. I plan to watch the full run of the original series, then Fire Walk With Me, then The Missing Pieces before watching the new series.

I was never really into Lynch before this, but watching this show has mad me a fan and makes me want to watch his other films which, aside from the Elephant Man, I have never really been especially interested in for the most part. That said, the original series is really hit or miss so far, but the hits are so so much bigger than the misses. It's quite amazing to realize this show aired on broadcast television in the very early 90s.

Anyways, I look forward to contributing here after I've circumnavigated the preexisting world of Twin Peaks.

We've had two episodes mention Philip Jeffries, and yet no "in memory" for Bowie in any end credits so far. Anyone care to speculate whether he actually did secretly shoot a cameo before he passed?

I think I might wait and binge-watch the next 2-3 episodes.  It's feels like i'm watching a film 10 minutes at a time and it's pretty annoying.  Good so far tho!

Yes, agree with that vibe. But that's what it is, a 18 hour movie. The "episodic" elements of the show feel like they're only there to placate/infuriate the viewer. Somewhere said that the most recent ep was the best since #1. Not sure I agree with that, but it did feel a bit more cohesive than some of the past few. But even the previous episode had three standout moments that this one lacked.

I'm kinda mad at myself because I called Laura Dern but neglected to post here.

I felt proud of America. it's going to result in some awkward disagreements between me and other people, but also high-fives with some others

Um. Yeah. That was definitely one of the most magnificent things to ever be on television.

SPOILERS

I was like, wow I did not expect a NIN concert video in the middle of this episode, that's weird! Oh how naive I was. David Lynch just does what he wants. I feel like he has now reached total dominance.

That frog-roach, though. Really. And those freaking demons. I was just almost done being haunted by the icepick murder scene from two weeks ago.
