071: Twin Peaks, Pt. II - Everything Else (sans the Movie)

SPOILERS FOR TWIN PEAKS (THE ENTIRE SERIES)

In this episode:

• Cleolinda Jones joins us for our discussion of the second half of the original Twin Peaks TV series!
• But first, pour one out for Silent Hills.
• We’re still not entirely positive what’s going on with Lynch re: the Twin Peaks revival.
• Cleo sheds some light on what was going on behind the scenes in regards to Sherilyn Fenn, Lara Flynn Boyle, and the effects it had on the story
• The differing perspectives on the first season and the second, both with the audience and the cast
• Ben Horne’s arc is… iffy.
• Josie… yeah… Josie and the drawer handle.
• The places the Nadine Hurley story goes are also maaaaaaaaaad iffy.
• Tojimura: a whole ‘nother bucket of syrup.
• The character of Denise, aside from a few missteps, is actually handled pretty well.
• Lynch showing up in Louie gets touched on.
• We do manage to tie things back into Hannibal, of course.
• Which, omg, the promo materials. (Bryan Fuller, CONTROL YOURSELF.)
• What could have been if Twin Peaks didn’t have to resolve the Laura Palmer mystery when he was forced to.
• Announcement: We're taking May off (life happens), but we will be back With a Vengeance for Hannibal Season 3.

THERE'S ALWAYS AN ADDENDUM:

• Highlights from Fio's timestamps:
• “Then a film noir breaks out” - Cleo on things that should really happen more often.
• Ben Horne doesn’t know how to people, but in a different way than Hannibal doesn’t know how to people and holy crap Deb from Dexter was in White Chicks. Those… aren’t connected. I have to stop working on the podcast when I haven’t eaten. Imma fix that really quick.
