I’m really trying. I live in the PNW and love weird shit, but I’ve never been able to stick with Twin Peaks more than a few episodes, and recently had a hard time getting through Blue Velvet, so I think David Lynch just isn’t for me.

Loved Twin Peaks. Watched it with a group of friends back when it was first broadcast. We'd unplug the landline so we weren't interrupted, break out the coffee and cherry pie, and everyone would shut up and just watch the show. Then we'd try and figure out wtf was going on, sometimes rewatching almost the entire episode and dissecting it. I miss that experience: no other show has come close.
Shame it got cancelled and the last few episodes of season two tried to wrap up something that needed at least one more full season.
You haven't watched the third season?
The third season is some of my favorite TV of all time, and that's saying a lot because I've watched a lot of TV shows.
Time for a cup of Joe and a Twin Peaks rewatch
I tried recently. Ehhhh...
Me and The Expanse
Why though?
it's got some surreal banger bits... but also it fucking drags a lot.
when I was younger I did not understand that lots of people were enamored with macglaughin and the mysteriousness but... didn't really pay off for me, ymmv.
I'm a big fan of other Lynch stuff, so I don't mind the odder bits, just the pacing of a series probably.
This is exactly the scenario I’ve got with some JRPGs; currently, Trails in the Sky.
Anyone who makes it to its ending adores it. But in fairness, that is a huge and heavy filter on opinions. Sooo much unnecessary dialog and bloat, even a few “Oh, Japan” moments.
Makes me wish for a job as a script editor (game or TV) so I can zero in on innocuous lines like “It was great to meet you” and fuss “This does not add information, or character, or charm!! Skip it!”
Because it's a good show, and I feel everyone should give it one chance.
I mainly like sci-fi, something that takes me away from the current world and all it's shit, I've heard it was good but I'm not sure it'll fit into what I enjoy.
