"There's a man in a smiling bag." by Mr. Nice Gaius	Dec 26th, 2006 12:50:22 AM
Thanks for the heads-up on "Twin Peaks", Herc!!! It's about time. Any word on the original series pilot?
Again, Herc, I ask you... by DanielKurland	Dec 26th, 2006 12:52:02 AM
I'm a huge Peaks fan, know almost all the lines, and yet your quote of "Take a look, sonny, it's gonna happen again" completely escapes my mind. The only thing that I can think of is when the Giant says to Cooper, "It is happening again." Please enlighten me on that quote.
Twin Peaks season 2 premiere has so much greatness... by DanielKurland	Dec 26th, 2006 12:55:36 AM
Cooper's entire monologue about being shot is just perfect, as well as his frustration with Droolcup. Leland's metamorphosis into having white hair, and constantly singing (particularly his reunion with Ben and Jerry), Donna acting bad ass ("When did you start smoking?" "I do it when I get nervous." "When did you get so nervous?" "When I started to smoke."). Say what you will about the 2nd season, but it had many more awesome moments than bad, and the finale is so fucking wonderful.
New Adventures Of He-Man by Evil Lincoln	Dec 26th, 2006 01:21:25 AM
WTF?! When did this abomination air? Not that I'm a huge fan of the original series (would have loved to have seen Battle Cat eat Orko however) but when did that series "grace" the air waves?
"wildly uneven" is an understatement by newc0253	Dec 26th, 2006 04:24:11 AM
i watched 'fire walk with me' the other night and, boy, as much as i love the whole lynchian subversion of narrative expectations, that film was something else. it made 'mulholland drive' seem like a spoonfed perry mason mystery. david bowie as an FBI agent was a cool concept but, like so much else in the movie, one that was barely explored. a mystery wrapped in an enigma wrapped in some blue tv fuzz.
Twin Peaks by Gorrister	Dec 26th, 2006 06:12:18 AM
What is the point of buying Season Two when Season One isn't available?
twin peaks s1 by radjac33	Dec 26th, 2006 06:59:34 AM
Man thats been out dude, for like years, and you can get the pilot overseas.
Can we start asking for a Fire Walk With Me SE Yet? by tonagan	Dec 26th, 2006 07:16:02 AM
Or should we just be thankful that season 2 came out for now?
Twin Peaks season 1 and pilot by MartinBlank	Dec 26th, 2006 07:27:12 AM
Supposedly Season 1 is being re-issued. With the pilot included. Paramount owns the whole series now, including the pilot, which is now owned by Spelling, which is owned by Paramount. The Region 2 box of Season 1 includes the pilot as well.
"Tom Goes To The Mayor: The Complete Series"??????????? by Toe Jam	Dec 26th, 2006 09:05:57 AM
am i to assume the show won't be returning to adult swim? if so, that fucking sucks.
oh, and that "Shield: Season Five" cover is awesome by Toe Jam	Dec 26th, 2006 09:06:41 AM
just as it should be for, arguably, the best season of that show so far.
Twin Peaks is a perfect example by LordTwinkie	Dec 26th, 2006 10:25:28 AM
of how Execs ruin everything! Good god it took them long enough to release season two, I've had season one for years along with the pilot episode which i had to buy seperatly, and fire walk with me.
space 1999 by coppercrow	Dec 26th, 2006 10:44:55 AM
ok herc... got any info on space 1999? i see all these old shows... whole seasons for 20-40 bucks... and the show i want is $40 for six episodes a pop! where's the love?
As great as Twin Peaks was... by scrivener	Dec 26th, 2006 10:45:00 AM
I'm not buying anything until we get a proper Season 1 release (ie, includes Pilot).
Angel was decent by Cherry Chuck	Dec 26th, 2006 11:19:57 AM

Are You Dating Dane Cook? by AgentJay	Dec 26th, 2006 11:28:40 AM
Wow. You're a HUGE Dane Cook fan. Almost seems like you dig him more than Twin Peaks. You didn't cut & paste any Twin Peaks clippings. Are you his Agent?
A SE edition of Fire Walk With Me IS coming... by DanielKurland	Dec 26th, 2006 11:49:51 AM
Lynch has said so himself. The film was originally 4 and a half hours, and if anything in the film felt truncated, it's because so much is cut out. The script for the complete film has been online for ages, but Lynch has said a new edition is being issued, with the deleted scenes present (although, most likely not all of them). The issue of why it has taken so long has had something to do with the scenes belonging to another company, or something silly like that, but it's coming, and it'll probably be the last Twin Peaks thing released officially.
24 For $19.99 Each! by JeffDaMan	Dec 26th, 2006 12:20:29 PM
Only at Best Buy until the 30th, includes the new season 5 set. I'm picking up all 5 seasons tonight!
"Encheapened"........... by Venkie007	Dec 26th, 2006 01:22:31 PM
...........is NOT A WORD. Man, that's been bugging me for awhile now.
Venkie007 by Venkie007	Dec 26th, 2006 01:24:17 PM
When on God's green Earth are we gonna see some seasonal sets of "The Real Ghostbusters", "X-Men", and "Spider-Man"???? You can have the entire season of the terrible "ALF" animated series, but no GB, X, or Spidey. What. The. Hell.
Twin Beaks. by CatVutt	Dec 26th, 2006 02:48:09 PM
In addition to Herc's aforementioned late night references, there was also a hilarious Sesame Street segment of 'Monsterpiece Theater' called Twin Beaks, with Agent Cookie, the Log Bird with her actually talking Log, and a bird named David Finch.
Vengie007 by nemesisdarkside	Dec 26th, 2006 03:48:49 PM
Tell me about it!!!
VenKie007 even by nemesisdarkside	Dec 26th, 2006 03:51:45 PM
Sorry. Glanced at your name, but felt your message!
24 is $19.99/season at Best Buy! by IAmJack'sUserID	Dec 26th, 2006 04:02:13 PM
All this week!
CatVutt, I remember that... by DanielKurland	Dec 26th, 2006 05:34:49 PM
it was somewhat disturbing actually, at least, when seeing it as a child.
Who likes these shows? by Orionsangels	Dec 27th, 2006 12:58:03 AM
What kind of alternate reality do we live in where these shows are considered good? WTF! I never understood why buffy was considered a good show. Yes I've seen it. don't get it. it's lame o city!
Twin Peaks parody on Darkwing Duck by Uncle Stan	Dec 27th, 2006 08:20:12 AM
There was an outrageously funny parody of Twin Peaks on Disney's Darkwing Duck! It even began with one of the regular villains being found dead and wrapped in plastic in the remote town of Twin Beaks. Strange dreams, logs, and a paraphrasing of "The owls are not what they seem" are included.
TOO SILVER!!! by Col. Tigh-Fighter	Dec 27th, 2006 11:33:47 AM
TOO SILVER!!!
IT'S TRUE!!!!! by dancinggopher01	Dec 27th, 2006 01:28:54 PM
All seasons of 24 are 19.99 this week only at Best Buy!!! 107.21 gets you the entire series. And no life for the next two weeks. I have already turned off my phone.
Twin Peaks Season 2 was great by holidill	Dec 27th, 2006 03:06:38 PM
From a Diane Keaton directed episode that was just as bizarre as any Lynch did, to David Duchovney as the cross dressing FBI agent, to Major Briggs creepy disappearance in the woods with Cooper after the Laura Palmer case was solved, the giant chess pieces, the mind bending fate of Josie and the insane finale are all worth it.
Two things by Ralph Hinkley	Dec 27th, 2006 05:38:40 PM
1) Dane Cook is a twat. 2) Twin Peaks was excellent. But I can't stress enough how much Dane Cook is a twat.
Ralphie... by MCVamp	Dec 27th, 2006 08:56:06 PM
I can't agree with you. See I like twats. I like having sex with them. I like going down on them. Hell, I even like rubbing them. No, Dane Cook is not a twat, no sir. Don't insult twats. We all came from twats. Plus, on occasion, twats are funny. Dane Cook=definitely not a twat.
"...un-der the syc-a-more treeeeeeeeeeee..." by SpyGuy	Dec 27th, 2006 11:44:02 PM
The only episode of TWIN PEAKS Season 2 that doesn't rock is the funeral episode right after Laura Palmer's murder is resolved. I firmly believe that episode killed the series, but Windom Earle was a great nemesis for Federal Bureau of Investigation Special Agent Dale Cooper and the finale was amazing, albeit incredibly frustrating with the unresolved cliffhanger. Somebody get Dark Horse Comics to call up Mark Frost and get him to write a TWIN PEAKS Season 3 comic the way they got Joss Whedon to write BUFFY Season 8. We need to find out what happens with BOB/Cooper!
"I've got this thing with knives. Kind of like you... by DanielKurland	Dec 28th, 2006 01:08:21 AM
in Pittsburgh." Man, I just loved Twin Peaks to pieces. Ray Wise did such a fucking wonderful job.
Recently caught up with Angel by moviemaniac-7	Dec 28th, 2006 11:05:39 AM
Been a Buffy fan a long time. Even bought Firefly, but Angel was always off the radar because of the fucked-up schedule Dutch tv has concerning that show. A few weeks ago I bought all five seasons on DVD. Overpriced, yes, but damn it's worth it. Brilliant tv. I wonder when Whedon tries his hands at tv again...
Forgot about the Hand shaking by holidill	Dec 28th, 2006 11:29:21 AM
Another mystery that needs to be solved is why certain members of the Twin Peaks community started having their hands shake violently.
about f%$*&@g time!! by mrbong	Dec 28th, 2006 11:46:56 AM
the remainder of Season 2 at last! we in the UK (well, i was there at the time) got it all at once - there was no proper internet then, so there was no spoilers, no illegal downloads. Windom Earle is the man!! "See the mountains kiss high heaven....."
Where's the first season of Extras? by 9000rpm	Dec 28th, 2006 12:46:23 PM
Extras: The Complete First Season (2005) available Jan 9. That's the biggest release of the month.
What's a slim set? by Dr Hemlock	Dec 28th, 2006 07:25:43 PM
What are they leaving out that you get in the .... "non-slim" set?
AgentJay... by keanho_in_nyc	Dec 31st, 2006 02:01:28 PM
Did you READ the Dane Cook clippings? They're quite negative (and, therefore, 100% accurate)
When is Firefly going to be on HD-DVD by wookieepotpie	Dec 31st, 2006 11:48:18 PM
DVD is dog shit. I won't watch it anymore. Unless I have to.
"How's Annie?" ... giggle ... "How's Annie?" by Dr Lizardo	Jan 1st, 2007 04:59:33 PM
That still creeps me out just thinking about it. And Heather Graham has never been hotter than playing an ex-nun in Twin Peaks season 2. Oh my.
