For some reason, it's been marked as spam. I've "told" discus it isn't and they're "working on It". Thanks for your kind comments

Yes, I think there was a moment in the first season (maybe right before Laura's funeral? Right after the infamous Bobby imagines himself as a limited Christ crucified figure) when the Major says something to the effect of "rebellion in a young man is to be expected, perhaps even necessary"

A beautiful Nordic ambient track from Geir Jenssen (Biosphere) called "Hyperborea" containing some of the original Major Briggs's vision: https://youtu.be/yX84iQ_tTU8

I did not know that Lynch has cited Kubrick's Lolita as a favorite, but (as I've mentioned elsewhere here) I definitely find a connection between Lynch's vision of America and the one that Nabokov built in "Lolita" and in his other English language novels. They both are fascinated by the youth and innocence of…

I'm unsure how literally we can interpret the bubble with Bob, etc. And I can't believe I just suggested literalness as a factor at play here. As many have pointed out here, It seems to contradict everything presented in the first two seasons and fWWM, about the eons old evil in the woods, the bookhouse boys, all the…

Well, the bug…

Doc Hayward's description of the events in the hospital regarding DoppleCoop and the comatose Audrey seem to confirm the leading speculation about Richard Horne's parentage; however, i prefer to think that his villainy is far more likely a product of Billy Zane.

Media studies focused on TV have tended to go in different directions from film studies and I wonder if this is part of the bifurcation of reactions to "The Return" into those (and not just from simple-minded fan service) longing for a soupcon more of narrative drive and coherence and those basking in the stream of…

I was wondering if that particular stall was the one where Philip Girard/Mike had his big haliperidol withdrawal freakout in the original series and that perhaps he wrote a future warning and stuffed it in the door.

In Episode 1/2 There is a portrait of Kafka in Gordon Cole's office, I believe.

Why did my mind immediately jump to the SCTV parody of "Melvin and Howard"?

sooo…the owls are NOT what they seem?

tonight, on Wings…ah, who cares?

My favorite laugh was Burns saying "I arrived here in something called Uber, which I thought would be a Wehrmacht staff car but turned out to be a Prius driven by a woman.

It's a crime SOLVING boat…

OK, one person mentioned the possibility that rooming with your sibling wouldn't be one's first choice, but I'm actually quite surprised that no one so far has commented on the inherent creepiness factor of opposite sex siblings rooming together in a tiny, tiny college dorm room. I know we can't expect exacting…

It's depressing that the most one can hope for from a project like this is facile "punk/indie" name-dropping mated to on-the-nose rumination about some kind of rock and roll integrity. I was particularly annoyed by the "Player" like crosses (i.e., he's like a cross between Pete Townshend and The Edge—which…

The real question is "can the Synths be used to replace all of the humans toiling in the sugar mines of our new insect overlords?"

In the sentence "Here is a list of titles coming and going from Netflix," The singular linking verb "is" is correct because the Predicate Nominative of the sentence is "list." "titles" is the object of the preposition "of" and has no bearing on the number of the verb.
In the sentence "Here's all the titles…" the…

I do think this scene is a key clue. It boggles any sense of logic that a town of any size and on state or federal highways, even in Idaho, could remain isolated and unknown to locals in the outside world. For example, the height and impressiveness of those barricades work both ways. I suppose it fits with the…
