Great post. Just one add - didn't the Fireman/Giant tell Coop to remember Richard and Tina in part I?

Also, read Rick Colchez' comment above. Andy is pure of heart.

The only sign of Andy being dirty was the Rolex, and only if you wanted
it to be, More likely he just saved his money for a nice watch. I doubt
he and Lucy live high on the hog. The "shady meeting" was him attempting
to interview the guy who owned the truck Richard used to run down the
little boy, and Andy simply…

Seems pretty active on this show

Interdimensional beings ARE the aliens.

They're the same place, and I believe lots of characters refer to it as the roadhouse. It's a small-town thing. When I lived in DeWitt, the local ice cream shop was known as the Tasty Freeze, it's original name, even though it had been DeWitt Dairy Treat for 10 years at least. It changed ownership and names again…

I liked the pilot but the rest of the first season was hit or miss for me. This season is much better, with the exception of episode 5, "Dallas," which I absolutely loathed.

I have seen it incorrect on Preacher frequently. Just this week, cc on AMC referred to the "hole" in the prison of Hell as "the hold."

Movie ending = cop out. Book ending = less satisfying on a visceral level but makes more sense with the story and in general.

MacLachlan is brilliant. But I don't see how Dougie is showing any more of Dale than he did back in part 4 when he first drank coffee again.

See below.

Or the snow globe scene à la CItizen Kane!

Here you go - according to the Daily Mail, at least one Mrs. Cooper (!) went nearly her entire pregnancy comatose and gave birth at full term.

I think it has happened in real life. It is biologically possible, as I understand, at least with modern medical intervention in a hospital setting, but I don't think that makes it a likely story angle. It is so Soap Opera that I might have expected such a thing in the original run, but the daytime TV feel of the…

The book ending to Fight Club was so much better (as they usually are) and not at all the cop-out they played in the otherwise well-done film. If you've never read Palahniuk, you owe it to yourself to at least find a bookstore and read the last few pages of it. .

The Audrey scenes have been incredibly strange and mysterious, no doubt. Contrariwise, the "Audrey gave birth in a coma" theory does seem to be the most popular I've come across. Might be part of the reason I'm against it.

I think you mean figuratively. Otherwise, yes in general, but I won't predict it will be in the next episode, since I expected the journey to JackRabbit's Palace weeks ago after the scene at the Briggs home and the mysterious message in a cylinder.

Honestly, it's as good an explanation as any, I suppose, but I just can't cotton to the idea Audrey is still comatose and it went unmentioned by Doc Hayward when he spoke to Sheriff Frank Truman oh so many episodes ago. Time well tell, or not. And the idea she's still comatose and also Richard Horne's mother, well I…

But you can't see John Cena!
