So far, the style of the third season is more similar to his movies than the originals, I think.

It's a good idea to watch Fire Walk With Me as well, but it's not necessary. Have you seen any Lynch movies? The third season is a mix between the first two seasons and his movies, style-wise.Cance > TheRest said:I finished watching the original Twin Peaks yesterday. I can only agree with what's been said earlier in this thread. There's a very special vibe to the show that I've never experienced in any other TV series. Maybe it's Lynch's way of taking seemingly normal things and make them seem surreal, I don't know. I really appreciate the soundtrack also.
I wonder if the new series is as good as the original. Time to find out soon!
Yeah I agree. The whole setup and with it revolving so much around one or a few characters meant it's days were limited. Wouldn't have it another way though. Some great, flawed characters there.movingtarget said:Red Rick said:Just started rewatching House MD again. Man, I do love that series.
That was a good series but I think it ended at the right time. The final series was a bit of a drop off in quality. Really well acted.
That sounds good. I've watched Blue Velvet and The Elephant Man. I'll give FWWM a watch too.Netserk said:It's a good idea to watch Fire Walk With Me as well, but it's not necessary.

Yeah, everything feels so incredibly rushed now. I think they've done quite a few things right this season, but they clearly have no idea what to do with a significant number of people who aren't really involved in the northern endgame.Brullnux said:Thrones is back, but DandD have ruined most of the good characters as they can't write good dialogue for intriguing characters. Littlefinger went from being the most scheming man in Westeros who could manipulate even the most powerful houses to being a moustache-twiddling sex pest, who just repeats the same conversation over and over again. He's almost as annoying as Dany. And Varys and Tyrion have become infinitely less interesting since Season 4, and the mighty Olenna is (spoiler) dead.

And the travel bothers me. It's like they have teleporters now.
TV Euron never happened, I dropped the whole show when I saw him and the lack of Victarion (probably my favourite POV character in the books) also sucks.Brullnux said:Don't forget euron 'finger in de bum' greyjoy

Yep, they kept him around for seven episodes and then killed him off. It was a mercy killing by the endmovingtarget said:Littlefinger would have been written out of the show by now unless he was about to drop a bombshell of sorts which I think is going to happen. He's not the type of character to keep around just for cryptic conversations. He will either be killed off soon or do something that no one will expect.Red Rick said:Yeah, everything feels so incredibly rushed now.
