I presumed the song was deliberately awful. I've found avoiding spoilers via Twitter/Facebook the hardest as I follow the official Twin Peaks account and a bunch of fan sites, all of whom usually rush to post screenshots and discussion posts moments after the end of the show. The episodes come out Monday lunchtime over here (which is Sunday night in the US) and we usually watch them Monday night, so I just have to try to remember not to check that stuff during that time. |

I listened to an interview with the guy who co-wrote 'No Stars.' He said he did the original master and a re-master version for the song on one of Rebekah's solo records. And he said the version in the episodes was "unmastered." Whatever that means. |

I'm a little worried that Lynch is sick or something. Tein Peaks: The Return has been a true magnum opus. He's pulled influences from all over his life and career. His art work is referenced and reused all over the place. The show has used the past to go to unexpected and unpredictable new places. It's almost like he knew he'd never make anything again. Like he needed to tie everything together and say goodbye. It's amazing and awe inspiring and unsettling, too. |

If he is sick, the same thing happened to me with Bowie. I started listening to him and became a big fan three months before he died. And somewhat related I finally watched my first non-Twin Peaks Lynch film a few nights ago with Eraserhead (which I loved!). Tonight's episode:

Excited to hear your thoughts about Eraserhead and any others you watch, parasol. |

I enjoy the organic turns towards his career as a whole that this thread often take, but we're probably losing out on a lot of non Twin Peaksparticipants who want to steer clear of the thread for fear of spoilers. |

Really enjoyed your post, Joey. You put a lot of what I meant into words when I used the phrase "slow burns." Re: that first scene:

Likewise. In addition, I didn't make the connection that Sarah is acting like Laura. That fact alone adds so much gravity to an already heavy, heavy scene. PS - I'll start up a David Lynch thread and talk about what I though about Eraserhead! |

The Sarah scenes were among the most striking and harrowing things in this series yet. Something was definitely very off-kilter with the Audrey scene but I can't put my finger on what. It had a weird and stagey feel, quite distinct from the rest of the series, but I don't know if that's intended to signify something or just a function of her acting and her not joining filming until late in production, etc. |

Also, I found the Albert, Cole and Cole's friend scene to be among the laugh-out-loud funniest things in this so far. SHE DIDN'T GET IT EITHER. BEING FRENCH, IT DIDN'T TRANSLATE. |

Totally agree. My wife was really bugged by that scene. It was among the several times this season that she's leaned over to me and whispered something like, "fucking David Lynch, man... sometimes it really feels like he hates women." I thought it was a marvelous scene. Among my favorites in the entire episode. |
