Hi All,
Is an yone watching the Twin Peaks Returns series because if they are, I hope you are as lost as I am. I mean Iknow David Lynch is an arty farty type but... I am pretty good at non-linear plots, confusing things to make you think but come on! over half an episode in black & white with no apparent link to the plot?  I got the impression it was art for arts sake

What's the plot? Who did Laura Palmer kill before she got killed?
|
|
|
|
|
Strangely Laura was only mentioned in the first episode as the name of a case...
|
|

I can't help but think of this[^] when I read your post.
May not be safe for work.

I'm watching and are lost too.
I guess we have to wait until the final episode to get a chance to understand.

Yes, the latest episode seemed like a film student's mental breakdown. 
Between that and the previous episode's "ten minutes of a guy sweeping the floor in a bar while some music plays in the background", I'm starting to think David is trolling us.

It's art, near as I can figure... the first bit made 'some' sense, I get the impression that it's art for arts sake.

Will binge watch when finished (18 eps).
I'm watching american gods first series (1 ep to go) - it's somewhere out there too - way strange how and what's being told.
Hoping that last ep has an answer or two coz it's like a bowl of spaghetti with no idea what's at the bottom (yeah the main story is announced but how or even if it's getting there I still don't know.)
Worth a look bat a warning: the director seems a bit penis obsessed.
Sin tack
the any key okay

I haven't yet had the chance to see any of American Gods the main story seemded to be of interest... I just hope there is not a trend for 'clever' read pretentious storys. The old Twin Peaks was a little odd but there was the underlying murder plot, the new one only has the vaugest connection mostly agent Copper acting odd.

I sometimes feel that astrophysicists should go out and get a life, but it holds even more so for "science reporters" - most of which can't understand why it's cooler at night...

Probably the best joke ever written was in Futurama
Quote: Fry: Oh, man, this is great! Hey, as long as you don't make me smell Uranus.
[He laughs.]
Leela: I don't get it.
Farnsworth: I'm sorry, Fry, but astronomers renamed Uranus in 2620 to end that stupid joke once and for all..
Fry: Oh. What's it called now?
Farnsworth: Urectum.

I always thought they're going to hell.

Well, they only go to the churches places of worship that provide the largest party donations. So that means no, they don't go to Christian churches...

No, they only like to get more informed about the future/final enemies

It's much more of a "birds-of-a-feather" thing.
They are attracted to the arena with the greatest scarcity of ethics and morality.

It's not what they say, it's what they do (or don't do) that requires so much forgiveness.  Actually, to hell with forgiveness. Kick 'em all out!

Saturday was not good. My sister called - my youngest brother (55) was diagnosed with colon cancer FOR THE THIRD TIME!! He gets checkups every three months, the last one was clean, now its back with a vengeance  All three of my brothers have had colon cancer, one is dead. Both grandmothers had it and two uncles. I get checked every two years.
I fell off a wagon I have been on for over thirty years, and got stinking drunk. I climbed back on Monday - luckily my wife understood.
And, to make it worse, Sunday was my 65th birthday.
