Twin Peaks S2 E14

Spoilers

“Double Play”

Post Laura Palmer murder Twin Peaks continues to be a mixed bag.

  • Windham Earle made his first appearance, creepy as all get out.
  • Leo’s return to life is really well done and frightening.
  • James is still terrible. Donna deserves so much better.
  • Pete is shocked by Andrew being alive, but I do like Catharine letting Pete know the truth. Their relationship is strange, but oddly sweet.
  • I do not like the black widow character with her over developed sexual abilities.
  • Sure seemed like they dropped the Little Nicky storyline quickly.
  • Leo and Windham Earle together? Yes, please.
  • I could have any number of scenes with Harry and Cooper showing how much they respect each other. Coop explaining his past with Earle laid out the rivalry beautifully.
  • Dr. Jacoby was all over this episode after not having much to do since the very early part of the first season.
  • Refighting the Civil War? Ben Horne’s crazy behavior is great.
  • Norma feeling good when Hank was arrested.

The show has some intriguing storylines, but there are so many things that just do not work, and even those that are good, there is just something missing at times. Possibly the missing piece was David Lynch.
