    Llama Sneeze

    Feels like everyone is turning out to be psychic in Twin Peaks... Laura Palmer, Sarah Palmer, Dale Cooper... Hank Jennings?! Or at least we don't have a good way for him to call right after the letter he sent (presumably days earlier) was opened. But! For those who know the kind of things Twin Peaks is famed for may be interested that this is the first time an owl has an on-screen presence. Also Maddy looks very set to just make all the relationship tangle even more complicated... Support the show

    Pie Heaven

    You may be shocked - SHOCKED - to learn Twin Peaks immediately swerves away from naming Laura Palmer's killer despite explicitly promising such an answer last episode. Such is the way of Twin Peaks, and these days its well known this was never quite what David Lynch and Mark Frost wanted to focus on, and yet... the answer is out there still. In the meantime we talk a fair amount about the funeral at the centre of Rest in Pain and bring up Ringu once again. Support the show

    Burns Suit

    The Red Room makes its appearance in Twin Peaks! If you've been wondering how the series has the reputation it has, it all ramps up from here. We talk backwards talking, our "clues" for the central mystery, compare the series to (variously) Insidious, Neon Genesis Evangelion and professional wrestling! Also come to a startling realisation about the Horne brothers... Support the show

    Cooper's Luggage

    The soap opera continues, though we will note how Cooper seems to travel. Or at least which items seem essential. We're still a bit early, not quite to the kind of thing Twin Peaks would become famous for... But there's still some weirdness. We talk a lot about Laura Palmer's astonishingly active pre-death life and the odd bits and pieces that would normally get cut out of this kind of show. If it wasn't going to be, well, what Twin Peaks will be... Support the show

    The Best Costumes

    Join us as we take a trip into the Pacific North-West... To a town with a population way too high for how its depicted. And an eccentric population. We are, of course, talking about Twin Peaks this time. Taking in the views of the feature length first episode (critically not the International Pilot version of this which we will get into later), we find that the series is a lot more subdued this early with few of the hallmarks that would be infamous as it went on...

    Embracing the Infinite

    Alas we have reached the end of Darkplace with so much of the series still left unglimpsed... What sights and truths could it reveal? Maybe that Dean Learner actually can act since once again he actually does for a brief moment. Given the title and subject matter for The Creeping Moss from the Shores of Shoggoth, we end up talking about HP Lovecraft. But there's also some Clive Barker and Quatermass in here too... Next time, we're off to Twin Peaks! Support the show

    Theme of Batteries

    Looking past the less than subtle "borrowing" of John Carpenter's back-catalogue, we end up zeroing in on the actual theme of Scotch Mist! Doesn't have much to do with xenophobia, fog, mist but is very prevalent in the episode! Inevitably we also talk a lot about Stephen King... Support the show

    Subtext is for Cowards!

    We reach the infamous episode! The one with Garth Marenghi's attitude to subtext... Also his questions no one else asks... Despite the very obvious Planet of the Apes styling, we talk more about Avatar, Star Wars and Rawhead Rex and have fun trying to get back to the point as usual. Support the show
