OMG

 

[iShouldGoPro]

So, did the Woodsman kill Ruth, and that's why he was in the cell next to Bill earlier in the season?


And who was the person that floated up?

 

[DataStream]

The way all of this is coming together is really fantastic.

 

[Cheebo]

Much better than the last one, only thing missing is Coop.

You mean an episode that is already going down as one of the most critically acclaimed episodes in tv history by tv critics? Alright.

Episode 8 of season 3 without question is the most iconic of the franchise since the pilot of season 1. Love it or hate it last weeks episode has changed tv forever.

Someone break out Audacity, there's a voice there.

Lol, the donate button goes to the soundtracks. Clicking on the coordinates at the bottom of the page plays a video too.

 

[The Elite]

What date did Hastings put down on the Briggs picture 9/20 or 9/29?

This one is pretty creepy. The older journal entries link is some fuckery too, bunch of tube tv like distortion with "Falling" playing on top.

 

[Dusk Golem]

The fact he apparently updated his blog a bit before Ruth died, and the fact the blog was last updated in 2015, raises even more questions for the timeline of this series.

And of course he started the site in 1997, the same year Dougie was manufactured.

 

[Intheflorsh]

I knew there would be a real website, ha.

 

[Zoe]

So that forum did it again

[Kalor]

That Johnny scene felt really out of place but besides that it was a good episode. Everything is starting to come together.

 

[Kensation]

9/20

[iShouldGoPro]

Anyone want to tell me who Heinrich Viegel is? Has he been mentioned in the show yet?

 

[wanderingprostheyltite]

Some interesting comments on the "guest book" on that site:

 

[IronRinn]

Who else could it have been lol

Had just completely forgotten about him I guess.

What the heck is up with that commercialisation forum?

 

[Pennywise]

Not really.

So am I crazy or was this the episode that felt most like a classic TP episode so far? Lots of characters talking, switching scenes and perspectives, more use of music and quirkier moments along with some more focused character interaction while pushing a central mystery forward.

Half-way mark of the season though, 9 more parts to go!

This and episode 7 for sure.
Wish we had a bit more of Truman, as he is a new character in TP.

That Johnny scene felt really out of place but besides that it was a good episode. Everything is starting to come together.

Yup.

WEW it's all starting to come together, this arc with Bobby is reminding me so much of that speech Briggs gave him years ago.

Bobby had easily the best scenes from the old cast so far. Hopefully more characters will get the same love.

 

[Levito]

Season 2 was far from perfect but at least it was more coherent than this mess. At least season 2 still had the genuine interactions between Cooper and Truman. What we get now is an overacting Naomi Watts going on rants while standing next to a zombie.

Season 2 was terrible and the whole reason why the show was cancelled, there were like 5 good episodes and the rest were abysmal. You can poo poo the new season all you want and drop ratings numbers like folks are supposed to care but all the same you're sidestepping the fact that the low point of the series happened many years ago.

 

[Flipyap]

That was... pleasant. It moved like a more conventional episode of plot-driven TV, but it was unmistakably a Lynch creation. This is what Part 7 should have been. It felt like he actually wanted to shoot these plot-pushing scenes.
It will be interesting to see what this part looked like to people for whom Part 7 meant that "TWIN PEAKS IS BACK," because while I didn't see any Classic Peaks in that part, I sure did see a lot of it in Part 9.

Betty Briggs almost made it feel like goodness was returning to town, but the good ol' roadhouse was there to assure me that nope, Twin Peaks needs to be burned to the fucking ground (what a shithole).

Oh, and, Johnny. Plz don't be dead. I need to see you hang out with Dougie. I bet you'd make great friends.

Ooo

Oh god, The Final Dossier IS going to be full of blog printouts and text message logs, isn't it? Goshdarnit, Mark!

 

[gun_haver]

i love this new bobby so much

 

[Zoe]

So what year did the original series take place in again?

It's about five hours away from me, so I don't think I'll make it. On another note, the search for the zone website was created on the actual day of my birth.

I am Dougie.

I heard someone yell "help" in vortex.wav.

 

[PushTheButtonMax]

So uh, was that Johnny Horne that ran in to the wall?

 

[Zoe]

Yes, and that was his mother

 

[heavy liquid]

So what year did the original series take place in again?

I think the original series took place when it originally aired (1990).

 

[fade_]

So uh, was that Johnny Horne that ran in to the wall?

Thought I saw blood on the ceiling.

 

[VistraNorrez]

Original series took place in 1989.

 

[Cheebo]

I think the original series took place when it originally aired (1990).

The start of the series took place in 1989, 1989 is when Laura died.

Seeing how The Return takes place in 2015, 25 years later after season 2 we can assume the first two seasons covered part of 1989 and 1990.

 

[Levito]

So uh, was that Johnny Horne that ran in to the wall?

Hasn't he not been seen since Laura's funeral??

 

[Zoe]

Hasn't he not been seen since Laura's funeral??

He was in the spelunking episode.

If only there was a way to have bobby/garland hug scene in this,

 

[plagiarize]

We have hard dates. They contradict the hard dates in Secret History that put Tammys investigation of that contemporanesouly with the release of the book.

There is weird voices mixed into the soundtrack that plays on the blog when you hit the old posts link.

Can't wait to find out what's at those coordinates!

 

[traveler]

Bobby makes his way to the void in the black lodge and hugs a projection of Major Brigg's head, squeezing his cheeks in and out in the same fashion that Doop did to that unfortunate gas station attendant.

South Dakota is a long drive. Guess I better get started now.
