It's impossible to genuinely dislike something these days. You're just a try hard edgy hipster.
Conversely you can't like something either, you're a rube that got conned.

Two things, not specifically at you Levito, but to these trains of thought
1) So many times people enter the thread and voice criticism, the old 'well lol Season 2' argument is given. How in any way is this addressing some people's criticisms of what we are watching now
2) Some people invariably would be satisfied with just a rehash of the Cooper mannerisms that hit popular culture, but many actually miss far more about Cooper than that. His optimism, his intelligence and generally well to do, heart on his sleeve personality. It was warm, comforting and pleasurable to watch
Lynch revels in making the audience feel awkward. It's challenging TV. Im totally onboard for the run, but as someone to anchor the whole endeavour, Dougie's simpleton whose form of communication is parroting is an absolute gaping hole in comparison to Cooper.
Without that warm charm of Cooper to serve as a gateway for the audience to latch onto as a descent into the off kilter world Twin Peaks represents, I'm not suprised it's having a fair few in this thread lamenting the missing link on its own merits - it's more than just wanting Cooper to wink at the camera and pull a thumbs up with Gordon or something
I hate you, Don Draper's Hat, but that was pretty good. : )
I hope to find someone like Janey-E one day.
One day...

I found my Janey-E and married her, she equally would probably take several weeks to notice I was just repeating the last words she threw at me back at her
He didn't trick her into having sex with him. He just wanted to eat his cake.
I think this show reaches new levels of incomprehension with each episode.

At this point I'm just watching it out of sheer curiosity, rather than any investment in characters or plot.
The letter intercepted by Chad 2 Badd said 'Miriam Hodges' on it - she's credited as "Miriam Sullivan" at the end.
Looks like Chad messed up..

Not watching the Straight Story would be the real mistake imo

Credits could be wrong though. Remember the Bing / Billy business?
That said, it wouldn't exactly be out of the realm of Twin Peaks possibility for there to be multiple Miriams what with all the Bobs and Franks and whatevers.
Plus that'd be a fun scene where Chad opens the letter before trying to destroy it only to realize it was the wrong one. So I hope that it isn't a goof!
oh shit, Chad intercepted the wrong letter??
I'm already hyped up for next week.
Richard Horne's demise will be cause for celebration. What a complete shitheap of a person (well, whatever he is. Having an evil interdimensional doppelganger for a dad implies not so human).
Speaking of disgusting characters... I don't get the love for the Dougie rape scene. Taking advantage of a person in a near vegatative state (just because he has a hot new bod) is pretty despicable.
Was their a bald guy in the experiment box that Mr. C was looking at?
If only I had the gif skills to make C2B rise up from behind Lucy's desk.
Wasn't the Bing problem subtitle related, not the end credits? Or am I wrong about that?

best: Knepper and Belushi are a great couple
worst: terrible character assassination of Janey-E, turning her into a rapist. There is no way Dougie can give consent in his state. Lynch probably thinks it's hilarious to let her rape a man. Sick fuck.
I don't know, is it rape if it reawakens something he loved ?
He tasted coffee and loved it, then wanted more.
Did he give off the impression that he wasn't enjoying himself ?
Plus it's not like she took advantage of anything. It's her husband from her point of view. Whether you buy that she doesn't see he's not himself or not is irrelevant, because she doesn't see it, if you think it wasn't handled well enough it's fine, but it certainly doesn't make her vile from seeking intimacy with her husband.
I'm not gonna say you're wrong, but this is Lynch's most followable work, aside from Blue Velvet and The Straight Story perhaps. What is incomprehensible about it? Is it because of the editing?
How was this last episode hard to follow? The only episode you can say that of is episode 8 and that still makes sense.
a 14 year old boy might also enjoy himself if his teacher raped him, that doesn't matter at all. Dougie is clearly not able to give consent, he is mentally handicapped.I don't know, is it rape if it reawakens something he loved ?

For the vast majority of the episode I had no idea what was going on or why were things happening. I forgot who Miriam was. What's the deal with the scene with the druggie couple? Laura's face in the door frame? Wasn't it Tammy that got a cryptic text last episode, not Diane? The fuck is going with those dressed up girls, especially Candy? I was mostly lost on the whole casino/insurance business, until the end, sort of. I guess it's just me.

I was really happy with Lucy being immediately suspicious.Oh he messed up alright. Lucy is 100% onto him. Finally getting some clear evidence that she really is still very good at her job, blind spot for cellphones aside.

And what the fuck at Janey-E, or anybody in this show. How can you not notice your husband is beyond fucked up? Are these people human? Does this take place on Earth? Like, seriously.
This thread needs to be nuked to orbit if people are being serious in their claims of rape. Get a grip.

How have we not had any thirsty Janey-E gifs yet?!
