Goddamnit, I'm watching the first episode again. It's going to be hard to do this week to week.
I'm already dreading the fourth of July since the show is taking that week off.
Thanks Tracy

What is the difference between the natures of BOB and Leland's vs. BOB and Coop's relationships? Coop and Doppelganger Coop are clearly different agents, whereas BOB seemed to come and go from Leland's body. Is the possession of Leland different somehow different from Coop being trapped in the lodge? They're both BOB in the mirror, in any case! I am very curious to know if anyone has thought about this.

Great show great execution on all episodes outside of some minor gripes. Starting to feel like Oceans Eleven with all the cameo's.
Some really funny parts so I'm glad it's retaining a good balance between that lynchian horror and comedy
All the dialogues are well nailed, this show is a show I don't use my phone whilst watching like A LOT of other shows. It commands one's attention nor does it underestimate the audience' intelligence. Plus the mysteries are there but unlike a lot of other shit TV in terms of mystery (lost etc) I think this is going to have plausible and thought out answers.

BOB represents a gateway to the lodge.
He is connected to it, and therefore all the beings that are from it (the doppelgangers), but he is his own thing.
At the end of season 2, what you see isn't "Bob being Cooper", it's Evil Cooper and Bob both there.
He can posses random people (that seem to have vice), and leave their body, he can control what they remember of his actions.
The doppelgangers flat out replace the person permanently. But Bob can probably still hop in whenever he wants.
Which one ? D or M ?

What are my options for watching first two seasons?

The box seems very SCP Foundation-esque.
Hey am I crazy or is one of the younger twin peaks officers the same actor as the guy watching the box?

Now this is region specific, but I know in America the first two seasons are available on Netflix, on Hulu (with a Showtime subscription), I believe they're also on Showtime's own website.

If the wait for episode five for 2 weeks for those who saw all four episodes is bad, just imagine how it's going to be the one week the show takes a break in between the one episode a week sessions (which is in all probability going to be July 2nd.)
The thread will be a fun time then I imagine.

Perfect time to rewatch the season from the beginning!

Episode 5 airs on June 4th, next week they're airing 3 & 4 together and then go to one episode a week format (though skipping one week) until the finale, where 17 & 18 will air together.
But Showtime decided on many services to release 1-4 on demand for them.
The way it just goes on and on makes it hilarious.
Hey guys, did Part 5 air y--
THE THREAD WILL BE TORN, MISTER GOLEM. THE THREAD WILL BE TORN.

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful.
Exceeded my expectations for sure. The wait for more is going to be painful.

The girlfriend and I watched all 4 episodes.
Fucking. Amazing.
This has indicated to me that I truly need to watch David Lynch's other movies. Because all I've seen are Fire Walk With Me (which took a few viewings for me to truly appreciate) and Dune (which I barely remember).
Need to get on that Mulholland Drive, Blue Velvet, Eraserhead, Lost Highway, etc. shiz like NOW.

Also, going to talk about the first 8 part episode descriptions for a second here (with talk of 1-4 spoilers) and ask a question.
As several expected, they're quotes from the episode that have some importance to what happens in the episode.
For a reminder, here was the episode descriptions of Parts 1 - 4:
Part 1: My log has a message for you.
Part 2: The stars turn and a time presents itself.
Part 3: Call for help.
Part 4: brings back some memories.
So all four of these are lines said in the episode and now their importance is known. Part 1 the log lady delivers it (which was obvious), and the message is important to getting Hawk started into looking into how to help Cooper with his heritage in Twin Peaks. Part 2 was even more cryptic from the Log Lady, but in the episode Cooper literally falls through the stars (and time it seems) and it fits the surrealness this episode goes into. For Part 3 the "Call for help!" is the line Cooper repeats several times, and is also relevant since the episode shows us, really Cooper needs help. "...brings back some memories." is said by Bobby about the Laura Palmer picture, but also episode 4 is the episode that may bring memories of the original series to most those who watch it.
So with this said, here's parts 5-8s descriptions:
Part 5: Case files.
Part 6: Dont die.
Part 7: Theres a body all right.
Part 8: Gotta light?
They're all going to be quotes said in the episode as proven, and all of them probably have a deeper meaning to the episodes themselves as has been demonstrated by the first four already.
So I want to ask what you guys think the 'hints' are for these eight parts now knowing what 1-4 meant and the content of them?

In Scandinavia, HBO Nordic is the only option, unfortunately, since their app is still vastly behind Netflix.

There's a very high chance if you've liked what you've seen so far, that you'll enjoy Mulholland Drive, Blue Velvet, Lost Highway, Eraserhead, Wild At Heart, and dependingly, Inland Empire. For anyone who's liked the four episodes and haven't seen these, I'd recommend it.

That's ironic, as he was apparently once a GAFer.
This is going to be random but
the security guard in Episode 1 is actually the current UFC Middleweight Champion Michael Bisping.
Dusk Golem

THAT'S where it was from.
I only have seen the episodes through once (plan to rewatch them before and as 3 & 4 air live next week), and I knew my head was juggling to remember 430 and 253, but I had forgotten where 253 came from, just I had made a mental note to remember it a bit before it actually appeared on the watch.
I don't get your point
it's obvious his shoes fell off whereas the missing pin is unexplainable unless it's a horrible continuity error

I'm totally on the same page. I jotted down some of the numbers, but without context, so I'm going back and rewatching while taking more detailed notes on numbers, and who mentions them. Probably overkill, but could be helpful down the line maybe.

To be fair, I don't think many would want to fuck with that security guard.
I wonder if he'll ever appear again or of his disappearance is going to remain as mysterious as that one in FWWM.
So forgive me if I'm just confused but is there a particular reason
I doubt he'll come back, but it caught me off guard when I was watching.
Sheriff Truman is played by a different actor? Just recasting for w/e reason?

bad gameplay lol
He's his brother. They mention on the show that Harry is sick.
Michael Ontkean retired from acting and didn't come back for the revival.
I noticed
Lucy mentioned there was two of them, but I was confused because he was wearing the hat. I guess Harry's was a black hat though.
Dusk Golem

To add to this, the reason is because the original actor for Truman is retired and didn't show up in this season for whatever reason, so the original Truman is hospitalized during this series and his brother, Frank, jas taken over (probably because they didn't want to recast the original).

So I caved, and watched 3 & 4.
God damnit. This show is going to be centered around a trope I absolutely hate, isn't it?
3 & 4 spoilers:

I fucking hate the amnesiac/no idea of social norms characters.
It's lazy, tacky, and a cheap way to make people feel uncomfortable and/or play to laughs.
Every time good Cooper was on screen I begged for it to end. This side line better wrap up quickly because I don't want 14 more episodes of this.

This character wasn't in season 1+2 right? It's been about 4 years since I watched them.

I fully believe the whole season isn't about Cooper refinding himself, but it has a grester importance to demonstrate something which may be relevant to something else going on in the show (I have a theory of sorts). However, I think Cooper is well on his way to becoming more like himself.

Let's hope you're right
he seemed to almost form a coherent thought after drinking coffee. He hadn't heard "Hi" before, but "Hello"
