It Is Happening Again
I don't think anyone knew what to expect when Twin Peaks finally returned from a 25+ year hiatus. So many loose ends, so many questions left unanswered, and yet, the 2 hour premiere only proved to pose more questions that I'm sure we won't get answers for quite some time. The first part was filled with long takes of trippy Lynchian visuals and new faces. Without any real trailers or marketing material, this episode was very hard to follow. Not that I thought anything Lynch did would be easy to understand, but this was particularly incomprehensible. We began with Cooper in the black lodge, same place we left him at the end of the series' original run in 1991. Yes, it seems Laura Palmer was right in saying we would see her again 25 years later. With a welcomed brief appearance from the giant, the opening set the stage for what we were about to see. And I think what we saw is fascinating, because every single shot feels like David Lynch's true vision for this show. There's no way Showtime interfered at all. Both episodes felt like something straight out of Lynch's entire body of work. Without the second episode, it's hard to really dive into the specifics of what the premiere entailed. 2 people in New York City were seemingly murdered by a white blob, the log lady notified Hawk of something strange related to Cooper, and more murders in South Dakota where a Cooper Doppelganger seems to be linked to. It was quite the first hour.
