The only thing more fun than watching Twin Peaks Season 3 is explaining it to someone else.

I'm trying to work my way through Twin Peaks Season 3. Like anything that comes from the mind of David Lynch, it's an avalanche of little nuggets (especially the cameos from the first round).

Great stuff all around.

But my girlfriend walked in the room while I was watching either episode 3 or 4...the beginning of the "Dougie" arc. We're having dinner and she's watching it with me and says "Why did his wife just yell at him?"

So I tried to explain Dougie while I'm still figuring out Dougie myself.

And after the explanation she didn't ask any more questions.

She watched the original two seasons (I don't think she saw the movie, though).

Highly recommended to anyone other than people who like linear storytelling with a clear beginning, middle, and end.

It's kind of like putting on latter-day Coltrane or Miles and waiting for the melody.

1. Hate it. Pissed at Lynch for putting me through it.

Feel like telling him: You had my attention, David. I wanted this reboot so bad I could taste it. But you've mucked about until I'm royally ticked. Evidently, Lynch only knows how to entertain himself now.

2. I'm admiring rather than enjoying it, to be honest.

I think what made the original series so good was that the genius of Lynch was constrained by the restrictions of network television.

Right now we're watching unrestrained Lynch, and while I'll keep watching it and hope it will be renewed, I can't say I'm particularly entertained by it. Lynch likes to extend awkward scenes well beyond the time where they become painful to watch. Again, while I admire that, those scenes are awkward and painful and not entertaining.
