True. I just have a feeling he'll cower in a corner somewhere until everyone is gone.

I haven't watched South Park in a long time but I don't think they hold much blame for people not voting because both sides are 'bad' or 'the same.' That one I lay mostly at the feet of the 'news' media, who always love to in the crucial elections like 2000 and 2016, trot people out who parrot this line over and over…

Speaking of Vegas, I also wonder if the Tom Sizemore character will be the only 'major' character to survive (maybe Candie too). People like that are always the ones that seem to end up clinging to the edges of society.

I'd never seen that. It's very of that era. I guess it must have been why he says the show never really left his head.

They always fascinate me. I've watched them a few times over. I guess they also play into how the characters or Americans in general are seen, as Cooper is so hyped up (and the Log Lady is too, by Log Lady standards). I now can wonder if that was bad Cooper impersonating Dale as that would make sense.

I never have seen it yet. The Clue one was so bad I turned it off after about 10-15 minutes.

I hadn't realized until someone mentioned it how much Gordon is still mirroring Cooper - in this episode with the shaking hands (Dale's hands also shook before Bob's return), and the "policeman's dream" line (which Dale also had). I wonder if Lynch is just having some fun playing himself in some sense (as Dale is…

Yes.

Oh that's good then. I would rather he be dead (I wish he'd died at the end of season 1).

Such a talent. Even his small scenes in Lost Highway had such character. I just adored Pete. Honestly he was the saving grace of a lot of the aimless stuff with the Packards that sometimes just seemed to be there to fill up episodes, especially in season 2. I wonder if his absence is the main reason why Lynch decided…

I know she did that Rabbits thing for Lynch. Not sure what else. It's why I was surprised that she didn't accept the role (before MH I only knew her for her flat and short run on Sunset Beach), although I guess she didn't feel she needed it. I do wonder who it was going to be. Maybe one of bad Coop's henchwomen.

People think he might because of the trick he pulled with Richard. It's one of the fan theories around, another being that Becky and Shelly killed Leo and that is what Becky's husband meant when he said he knew her secrets (and why Shelly wears a ring around her neck, although that's probably Bobby's ring…).

There are so many questions I have, and know won't be answered, which may be for the best, but I just wonder if they married young, married because of the baby, only got married later on as one last attempt to keep the relationship going. And when did Bobby decide to become a deputy, if it was a more recent thing to…

True. I just wondered how much longer the Vegas arc could last. This past episode felt like a capper on it.

Yeah I did get the vibe here that Bobby was somewhat distant, based on Shelly's reluctance to get him involved and also the way he was on the other side of the booth, with Shelly close to Becky. I can also see him cheating. I do think he loved Shelly, I think that he was just so young and dumb (and also running away…

I thought that was Roth too…

At first I wasn't very interested in the mob aspect of the Vegas setup as it's been done to death, but last week when Candie started having her episodes and we saw the Knepper brother trying to calm her down rather than the usual variation of these relationships (him slapping her around), I started to see them in a…

I was wondering if either of you had any thoughts on the way guns and gun violence were treated this week, which felt like a mix of, "Guns don't kill people - people kill people," and, "Holy shit a lot of dumbasses have guns now don't they…don't let dumbasses have guns please."

True. I've also seen people speculating that it's just a sign of various forces in Twin Peaks gathering strength. But I think they key could have helped set that off.

I'm also expecting JJL and Tim Roth to slaughter a lot of the Vegas group, including his boss and Janey-E, although maybe they will just stumble into each other and get knocked out while evading Coop, like the old Superman episodes.
