Twin Peaks: Episode 8

And welcome to Season 2! The premiere episode of this season is a double-length episode, and for the most part it puts this extra time to good use. There is a lot to deal with in the aftermath of the last season's finale, and this episode gives us some answers and a few more questions. It always seems to happen that way, right? Can't have answers without more questions.

Now THIS is how you do a season finale! This episode is near perfect, and hardly a second is wasted paying off many of the plot-lines that have been building all season. And that's not even talking about all of the cliffhangers that we are left with in this episode, with around half of the character's lives in grave danger after it's all over. You basically have no choice but to tune in to season 2 after this episode.

Reviewing 101: Don't wait to write your review over a week after you experienced whatever it is you're reviewing. Oops.

Right off the bat: I really liked this episode. I thought everything that it tried to do it did well and in an interesting way.

As it should be to, because there are only two episodes left in the season after this one. It's time for Twin Peaks to start amping up, whatever amping up means for this show.

Twin Peaks: Episode 4

I've touched upon this a bit in my last review, but Twin Peaks might have been a bad choice for my first television show to review. It doesn't follow the same structural rules that many TV shows do, it has a ton of characters all involved in their own plot-lines, and it's a pretty strange show. It makes grading an episode tough, mostly because all I have to compare it to is other Twin Peaks episodes, instead of all of television in general. The grades are my best interpretation of what I just wrote in the paragraphs above it.

Twin Peaks: Episode 3

This episodes demands some answers. The previous one made the claim that Cooper knew who killed Laura Palmer. This is the fourth episode of the show, and we apparently are already going to find out who killed Laura Palmer. So? Who did? Oops, looks like HE FORGOT.

Twin Peaks: Episode 2

“Episode 2” is somewhat of a game-changer for Twin Peaks, but it also happens to be a big game-changer for my blog. After looking at the past reviews I've done (not many), I came to realize a few things, some of which I already knew but was just ignoring. They are as follows:
