Twin Peaks (2017)
10/10
Who is the dreamer who dreams in the dream?

As a new fan of this show, the return took me by full surprise even though I was told to brace for it before hand.

This season is quite simply fantastic and has been an outright joy for me to watch. Filled with stunning cinematography and so many plots being twisted around each other this show does become quite overwhelming. But I can't stop watching, I can't stop thinking about possible interpretations.

This show has me in the palm of its hand and I am fully ok with that.

Dougie is both hilarious and tragic Naomi watts, Laura dern, and many others give a performance of a life time.

This show is slow and menacing with sudden violence and comedy thrown in. There is a tangible sence of melancholy in the lives of those in twin peaks, and the sence of a truly gargantuan danger looming for the people falling into this mystery.

I don't care about the somewhat janky special effects and the admittedly sub par acting from some of the players. I am in love with this mystery and god damn it is this one addictive show.

Not enough props is given to mark frost for co-writing this truly huge season of television that feels more like an 18 hour film instead of serialised TV. And David Lynch is here with his fantastic style of cinema that always hits the right spot for me. Episode 8 is all I will say.

If I ever lose my memories you can bet you could wave the blu ray for this show in front of me and I'll follow you around like Dougie does with coffee.
