Review - Twin Peaks

[akaihyo]

Finished watching Twin Peaks, Season 1 and 2, and it was strange. Not just strange in the weirdness parts but in, especially, the non-weird parts. Any episode was between one quarter and two thirds American soap opera and this amount climbs as the series goes on. The Lynchian weirdness is fascinating and delightfully bizarre but the rest . . . the rest is mostly garbage. Special Agent Dale Cooper and some of the other characters are delightful but the plot is weak, where it is comprehensible. And the final episode . . . was flatly terrible. My Grade: C/C+ (thought I am tempted to drop it by a full letter just for that final episode)
