Picture a 90's mall full of young Russ Hannemans wearing flannel shirts, legitimately not able to tell the difference between Live's Throwing Copper and In Utero.

Consider that sober conservative types like David Frum and Ross Douthat do not really represent mainstream conservative thought anymore. They are an increasingly small and irrelevant minority with no influence within the Republican Party.

He lived just long enough to become famous for exposing Anthony Weiner, and then dropped dead of a heart attack. Had Weiner texted his dick pics to his wife instead of random internet strangers, Andrew Breitbart would have died in obscurity instead of leaving behind a conservative gossip rag popular enough to attract…

Who cares what the numbers are? They've already filmed 18 new hours of Twin Peaks. They're not going to stop airing them because the numbers are low.

Hmmm… and the eyeless lady kind of pulls a slot lever when she electrocutes herself. And the panel with the changing numbers inside the space-pod kind of looks like a slot machine's panel. I don't know what it all means either, but I love when fans piece things together like that sound effect.

The show kind of went up its own ass when it set an entire season of noir references inside Archer's head. You're commending the lack of follow-through on an already pretentious conceit.

The problem is that the premise was executed as an excuse to put all the characters in 1940's noir costumes, but they did almost nothing with the idea that this is Archer's coma dream. We learn little new about Archer's psychology despite spending eight episodes inside his head.

Hey I just time traveled here from 2007. Why does everyone keep making jokes about how that "You're fired!" guy from TV is president?

It's worth noting that David Lynch did not direct the Josie->knob scene. That scene was directed by someone pretending to be Lynch.

This type of thing shows up so often in Lynch's work that it's practically a defining feature. Yes, on one level Bobby's reaction is silly and over-the-top. Lynch pushes for so much melodrama, and draws the moment out for so long, that it's difficult not to laugh. But there is also emotional truth to the scene —…

And the scene where Robert Blake appears superimposed over Patricia Arquette's body is chilling. The effect is obvious. In no way are we supposed to think that Robert Blake's head is really on that body. That's why it's a disturbing image. Lynch viscerally understands this better than almost any director working…

I get where you're coming from, but isn't Mulholland Drive kind of a disjointed collection of scenes? The hitman scene in particular appears to have zero connection to the main narrative until the end. But we haven't seen all 18 episodes of Twin Peaks yet.

So can we talk about how Cooper was "tricked"? That evil tree doppleganger was pretty menacing, and then the Black Lodge floor fell out from under him. Cooper didn't really seem to have much choice about anything he did to escape the Lodge.

I took that scene as confirmation that Cooper wasn't able to eat, drink, piss or shit during his entire imprisonment in the Lodge, which is something I always wondered about.

I mean, maybe he was created a few years earlier as a fully formed 50 year old man with enough memories and skills to hold down a job. He met the Naomi Watts character, who already had a kid and a home, and she filled in the rest of the blanks. It's most likely a typically Lynchian commentary on how suburban types…

I laughed every time it cut back to Robert Forster's Marlboro Man stare of annoyance. It kind of doesn't matter whether the actor or the character wanted to slap him. The best use of Michael Cera's total lack of manliness in his long career.

Great points up above, all! I love that there's so much new stuff to discuss here, and that the internet has become commonplace since the second season.

Regarding your first point — I haven't seen anyone else make this criticism, which bothered me too. Last we saw Evil Cooper, he wasn't able to maintain his composure for five minutes without cackling and smashing his head into the mirror.

It's especially noticeable and jarring because many of these actors haven't worked all that much over the past 25 years. Like, if David Duchovny shows up, I won't be shocked at the ravages of age, because I've seen him in so many things in this century. But the guy who played James? I'm not sure I've seen him in…

I didn't even think of that but I bet you're right.
