mstrox 6,651 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Mark Frost's book came out today too https://www.amazon.com/Secret-History-Twin-Peaks/dp/B01KFX635C/ref=sr_tnr_p_1_7538393011_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1476808634&sr=8-1&keywords=secret+history+of+twin+peaks I bought the eBook and I read over maybe 5% of it on breaks today. At this point it's only establishing minor Twin Peaks mythology points throughout history, but I'm excited to get into whatever the portion of it is that deals with the characters we know.

I'm still thinking that there will be some surprises not shown on the cast list. Think about the lengths Lynch/Frost and Piper Laurie went through to make sure people didn't know she was on set in season 2 (until her character reveal). Not sure why they would keep a Little Man From Another Place appearance under wraps, especially since Carel Struychen is confirmed. But an unexpected reappearance from Leo, or Catherine, or Sheriff Truman* would be impactful. Of course, so would a reappearance by Annie (Graham) or Donna (Boyle), also left off of the cast list. *if the rumors of this particular role being recast are true, that would rule it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 7,504 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Well, I can understand if for actors who are dead, of course. But such a central character as Sheriff Truman, and with Michael Ontkean still around and kicking....well, whether he retired from showbiz or not, it feels like a loss.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I'm assuming he was asked. But if he's retired and has no interest in returning to acting... What are you gonna do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,363 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Presumably he was asked, but who knows. And it was only "someone close to the actor" who said he was "fully retired from show business.” On 10/8/2015 at 6:14 PM, Jay said: Michael Ontkean won’t return to Twin Peaks, Robert Forster may be the new sheriff Shame he didn't want to un-retire just for this!

crocodile 8,012 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Yeah, those two were definitely main course of the series.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Game of Thrones is premiering late this year. Gonna be a Summer show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,363 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 HBO announced ages ago that GOT season 7 won't premiere in the usual March / April timeframe this year. The reason is because they began filming the season later than usual, and the reason for that is because they had to wait for snow to fall, since Winter has now finally arrived on the show. The only premiere date we know for GOT 7 is "summer" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,399 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Ah right. That's good for me and other shows I still need to watch then. (Fargo 2, High Castle 2, Westworld). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,363 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 We still need to watch Fargo 1 & 2, High Castle 1 & 2, and I suppose Bates Motel and The Americans. we watched Westworld, its pretty good.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 One thing in favor of Fargo: while it is undoubtedly dark, both seasons are very funny. It's very dark, ironic humor, but funny nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,399 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Yeah we watch a shitload of comedy stuff on Netflix, hence the light diversion of Benidorm after completing Black Mirror 3. It's about contrasts when picking shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 7,504 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I, too, am watching a shitload of shows (some are on now, some are on hiatus, some are cancelled, some I haven't started yet). I keep these two threads over on FSM to keep myself in the loop. Some of them are based on posters' recommendations, others I've discovered on my own. For paranormal shows (also with some non-paranormal shows towards the end of the post): http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=77587&forumID=7&archive=0 For sit coms: http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=116750&forumID=7&archive=0 But I will have absolutely no trouble squeezing TWIN PEAKS in there, come April. I don't think I've ever looked forward to any new show (or, perhaps, season) as much as this, since the original is such a crucial part of my life in so many ways.

Quintus 5,399 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Plus the trouble with sitcoms and other TV comedy is it normally takes a few episodes just to become accustomed to the characters and their banter. Pilots are useful for other genres, but they can do plenty of classic comedies a disservice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintus 5,399 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 It just goes to show that there's no particular rhyme or reason to sitcom quality:season number ratios. Some start out great and eventually fade (Arrested Development, Trailer Park Boys) and others don't hit their stride till later on (Only Fools and Horses, Seinfeld).
