I just finished my first rewatch a couple days ago. It's consistently amazing to me how much more coherent Lynch's works become on a second or third viewing, although that was almost certainly aided in this instance by not having to wait a week between every installment.
I can't remember if this was ever brought up while the series was airing, but among the details that I first noticed while watching in higher def is the hilariously-wonky family portrait behind Lucy's desk.

Did the internet sleuths ever find out where the original photo came from? I remember that the picture of mr c in his mansion in “Rio” was at Al Capone’s house

Has anyone said that it sounds like Angelo Badalamenti is playing the chords to New Order's Subculture in the cherry pie scene at the casino, before going into "Heartbreaking." I mean, I thought it did.

that's not Badalementi

That may explain why he didn't look like the guy I previously thought was Badalamenti. Anyway, the music.

Would love a 4th season that is much smaller in scale. Coop and Laura driving around and trying to sort things out.

Morbs, I thought you might like to be able to read the discussion on the very specific set of episodes that you are currently watching. Apologies if suggesting that it is fun to engage with other people's thoughts caused offense.

I can't load this thread, so I don't know what I posted the first time, but I finished S3. Had to watch the last episode a second time when I was more alert.
Better prepared, it got better. I didn't worry about keeping the tone of 1/2--and even there, there's a split--accepted it as more of a Grand Hotel/Nashville shaggy dog story (reminded me of this bit from Zodiac: "A case that's covered Northern and Southern California, with victims and suspects spread over hundreds of miles..."). E8, conversely, seemed less impressive second time around.
I made peace with Dougie Jones (first time I wanted to put a bullet through my head)--that I'm in the midst of trying to train a puppy was helpful context. The conceit that the people around him don't seem to notice he has an IQ of 10, well, okay, that's the joke, or a big part of it. "What's he done now? He's in a coma!"--that made me laugh. I generally enjoyed his antics, but it was still a major thrill when it was the Cooper I love who reemerged from the coma.
Some of the original cast, I thought, actually gave better performances in S3, led by Dana Ashbrook and James Marshall for starters, who were a little overly method-y in the original. Enjoyed Gordon Cole a lot. The one original character who's totally wasted, I think--probably said the same thing first time--is Sherilyn Fenn. They could have done so much with Audrey. Robert Forster is excellent.
Some supplementary viewing was suggested to me in a different thread, but I just don't have the need or desire to make sense of it all, or anything even approaching sense. As with 2001, the ambiguous circularity is a far as I need to go. Right at the end, Cooper reaching out to take Laura's hand before approaching the old house, that was great.

Managed to load the thread...Not surprisingly, made some of the same points first time around, both pro and con. ILX has a very Twin Peaks circularity to it.

One of the funny things about Dougie is that he ends up doing all the things that, on paper, a fan service-y return of Cooper would provide: drinking lots of coffee, eating pie, solving a mystery, even a sex scene.
