I think there is no Mr C in Coop in Part 18. But there might be a bit of Richard.

With no Civil War reenactment?
I liked that a lot. Watching them on Hulu as episodes vs live streaming was a good idea as I ended up having to take a 30 minute break to deal with some things between episodes, hah.
My feelings as 17 ended were that it might have worked as a series finale for a show that expected/planned to have a next season, and as 18 went on (before the end) I also sorta felt it would have worked well as the first episode of a season. It was definitely weird to casually check the time and suddenly realize there was only 11 minutes left, hah.
I definitely think that after crossing over this Coop wasn't just normal Coop- he's not Bad Coop, but he has some of his mannerisms and ways of speaking, which made the scene with Diane (Linda?) unsettling. I'm not sure if it's a dream or just the past (or future?), given that there were also implications that the other world was a dream as well. On that note I'm a little surprised we never saw Audrey again, especially with the little girl line being repeated.
I expect the Final Dossier to just be more lore, but hopefully it has Tammy giving her take on the events of the season- I still feel like we didn't get to know a lot about her as a character, especially as one who had supposedly read a huge dossier about the original's events and was a skeptic of what happened, and I have to wonder if that's because it was saved for this book. I don't really expect any resolution there beyond maybe finding out what happened after Cooper left the office, but it should be interesting (as long as there's less UFOs...) and I'm excited.

So uhhh...the bit in Part 17 with young Laura and James. How did that work? Old footage but they recorded new dialogue (like how they dubbed over the Philip Jefferies stuff)? Or were they actual outtakes?
The bit where Cooper was walking Laura out didn't look like Sheryl Lee, right?

but let me correct myself because i just rewatched episode 17 and im pretty sure that the silhouette that descends the staircase is THE JUMPING MAN.
i wasn't sure it was when i first watched it but i just saw the credits for that episode and he is credited.
i dont remember anyone mentioning an appearance by him, was this known?

So the meeting with the Giant was literally all about the finale. 430, Richard and Linda, the sound it makes when Laura disappears.

I wonder how the they did the scenes in the past with Old Coop and Young Laura.
A mix of deleted scenes with new footage? A different actress for Laura.

It was yes and he was also in Part 15 briefly. He is Judy too, I think.

Well that solidifies the fact I won't be purchasing the third season, the first two and FWWM are enough for me. Oh well! How's Annie and Audrey indeed.
That was current Sheryl Lee I believe, not 1991 Sheryl Lee.

Yeah, it was current Sheryl Lee wearing a blonde wig to look like younger Laura.
But what about the wife that is called Linda who lives in the trailer park?
Eh, nah. Judy is being setup to being someone above all the other Lodge spirits.

All the old footage was in Fire Walk With Me and I think some of it may have been from the deleted scenes.
ppffffftttt....season 3 wasn't good enough for you but season 2 was....lame

Nope, but in Secret History, her backstory was changed significantly to the point where the winner of the Miss Twin Peaks pageant was someone else (the red head in season 2). Mark said there was a reason for the discrepancy, but did not go into it. It seems like the books may take place in a different reality.

I think it's a mix. Whatever they did to make her look younger was a bit too good I think. She looked younger than Sheryl Lee looked in FWWM in a lot of shots so it was a little incongruous.
Yeah, that makes sense. Except for the whole alternate timeline business, still not sure why it exists

i remember him in 15 and it looked like his face in 17 but it was very blurred so i thought my mind was just playing tricks on me.
hmm, but who is Judy then? what is her purpose?
There are multiple characters with the same first name in the world of Twin Peaks

He is intercut with Grace Zabriskie in part 15. When the monkey has it's mask revealed it says Judy. The jumping man has a mask that is the same. When Grace takes off her face, there is a protrusion like his nose and a second mask underneath.
That's what I'm basing it on.

Sooooo many.
That Linda isn't the Linda any more than Richard Horne was the Richard. There is a Richard and Linda in wherever Coop ends up in Part 18 that look like him and Diane.

There was an podcast with the head of Showtime where he said if Lynch was up for it, he was game.

Diane looking at Diane freaked me out for some reason
He has said it a few times now. It's all up to Lynch if he wants to do more.

Meh. I'll take lame and cheesy and enjoyable over booooooooorrrrriiiiiing, tepid, uninteresting characters that waste air space.
Someone could make a "which episodes to skip" graph of 3 much like they do 2. :lol

Seeing Laura whispering something to Coop and knowing that whatever it is she whispers freaks him out gets to me even more now. Especially after the events of 18.
Seeing your double is always terrifying. It is especially terrifying when they emerge from behind a pillar of a lonely motel at night in the middle of nowhere.

Maybe Lynch liked Nier:Automata and this was just ending L . Season 4 will all just be branch finales.

Watching it again this is definitely all three Coopers in one.
He's Dougie when he's leaving the lodge.

I am glad the TMZ spoiler of Laura and Coop going to the Palmer house resolved itself in the least predictable way possible.

I was so happy when that door opened and it wasn't Leland or Sarah. Literally the biggest smile on my face.
Lynch is finally getting what he always wanted to do. He never wanted to reveal the key to the original series, "Who Killed Laura Palmer?" The key to whatever the hell happened in Part 18, and Season 3 in general, is whatever Laura whispered to Cooper in the Red Room. We'll never know. They wouldn't put that scene over the credits if it wasn't the key to everything. We'll never know, and I am 100% okay with that!
17 was great, I loved the One Punch Man schlock. Coop knowing the rules of the Black Lodge made him over confident, and got fucking wrecked when trying to use time travel to correct the past, and dimensional shifting accidentally changed the future.
I still dont get why he had to travel the second time after changing the past...
Anyways, loved it! Knowing Coop and Laura are trapped in another reality is a great place to end the show, even if there are just books ih the future.
