I can wait

that show you like etc.

although it'd be funny if the goalposts kept moving such that a few months from now they promise us 45 episodes in 2032

2032 is Haydn's 300th birthday.

The hen symphonies are not what they seem

my breath

Seyfried casting v much in character

Has Balthazar Getty even worked since David Foster Wallace wrote about how much he mocked Lynch behind his back?

Like, that's the only way I remember who he is. "That skinny guy from Lost Highway that DFW was disapproving of in Premiere."

i try to stay aware of what madchen amick looks like at all times

words by which to live

I only found out about that getty thing today on a twin peaks site (I've never read the dfw piece on lynch)

that same site is now claiming that harry dean stanton has been spotted filming

RIP Catherine Coulson...?

Or so reports Twitter, but I haven't seen any official confirmation.

aw :( rip

;_;

This is sad. It's hard to imagine how the new TP will do without either Bob or the Log Lady, they're kinda essential to the supernatural vibe of the show... (Or will they be recast?) Thankfully Michael J. Anderson and Carel Struycken are still around. (And according to IMDb, Anderson at least will appear in the new series too.)

Also, before I checked the IMDB link above, I had no idea Peggy Lipton was in her mid-forties when the original Twin Peaks was made. That's uncanny!

man RIP :(

yeah peggy lipton fine

her daughter isn't bad looking either (and looks pretty much exactly what you'd expect a mating of peggy lipton and quincy jones to look like!)

oh wow had no idea

woah

and their other daughter was tupac's fiancée?!

yr a lil late to this news

I'd be ok with rashida jones being in s3, get a dynasty in this thing

Original show had like three non-white characters

RIP "blackie"

bad joke, sorry. For real though some diversity would be good this time

rural pacific NW was pretty white in the 80s. maybe it's less so now (I kinda doubt it)

the first month i lived in portland there was a huge nazi rally, and i was like, gosh, so this is the mainland!

Portland's more diverse than the surrounding environs

also not as far north as TP

of course it is, tho that is saying v little. think most of the nazis had driven in from the environs.

"Some of my best friends are white"

heh

I'm near certain I will love this whatever but I guess one of the main things I want from it is nobody disguises themselves as a Japanese investor

yr a lil late to this news
