Twin Peaks Completion
I did it. I finally completed the Twin Peaks Experience: Seasons One and Two of the original; Twin Peaks Fire Walk With Me, and now Twin Peaks: The Return.
At this point, I’m still not able to call myself a David Lynch completist, but this was a meaningful step toward that goal. It’s quite frankly a lot to sit through and take in, not just from the tough subject matter and headspace it puts you into but also for the sheer lack of definitive narrative. It’s a lot of just watching and experiencing where “understanding” is a relative concept.
I think some of the fun about this type of work is being able to discuss it. Not in a mystery box way but just a downloading of what stuck with you. It doesn’t really work if someone else isn’t going through the experience with you, which is why I’ve found this collection of podcasts to be really enjoyable companion pieces to the viewing.
