I want to watch this show. I want to love this show but all I see is the Mayor from Portlandia and his goofy friends trying to go to brunch. =)

Tried to re-watch original on Netflix. Got through two episodes and had nightmares for three weeks straight. Whatever David Lynch did artistically tapped into my subconscious in real way. Have not been brave enough to go back.
 
Too young to watch original Twin Peaks as it aired, and I have owned the BD since it was released but never had time to watch any eps.

So jumping in blind last night, first ep was quite jarring but I will continue watching.
 
S**t man. I completely forgot this started Sunday. Can I stream Showtime shows without having to subscribe to their channel package (DTV)?

I'm on a 30-day free trial in conjunction with Roku. That may not go very far but you'll get the first few episodes at least.

Holy ******* ****, the new Twin Peaks has been out of this world, and the last episode was the most incredible thing I've ever seen on "TV". Who else is watching?

The symbolism and metastory/archetype structure will be so much more poignant if you can find the time to watch the old series and Fire Walk With Me. But the new season is so good I wouldn't stop watching if you are too busy.
 
Jim Carrey to Star in New Showtime Series Directed by Michel Gondry
http://collider.com/jim-carrey-michel-gondry-showtime-series/

In KIDDING, Carrey plays Jeff, aka Mr. Pickles, an icon of children’s television, a beacon of kindness and wisdom to America’s impressionable young minds and the parents who grew up with him – who also anchors a multimillion dollar branding empire. But when this beloved personality’s family – wife, two sons, sister and father – begins to implode, Jeff finds no fairy tale or fable or puppet will guide him through this crisis, which advances faster than his means to cope. The result: a kind man in a cruel world faces a slow leak of sanity as hilarious as it is heartbreaking.

Sounds a little Death to Smoochy, which is a delightfully fd up movie, btw.
 
This Is Pop

Anyone that likes XTC , there is an amazing documentary on them on Showtime /On Demand right now.

Great footage I've never seen .

Yeah Andy Partridge is still a cranky curmudgeon ( especially in the beginning) but eventually he settles into telling the story of himself and the band.

They interview the main players , Colin M , Dave G , and even Terry C .

They don't say a lot about what's gone on in the last 20 years but go deep in the major label days .

It's 75 min long but could've gone for 4 hours for me .

Nice to see XTC get some notice since they've been kinda ignored in the ol reunion , accolades for artists from the 70s/80s train .
