Zen, or the Skill to Catch a Killer

Wonderful and mesmerizing third installment of 'Twin Peaks'. It's bizarre, funny, terrifying, trippy and outstanding. A unique atmosphere that only someone unique like Lynch could pull it off.

I started watching this show because I had heard it was a form of paranormal or supernatural based, or something, but at least I knew it had to be good since it is a David Lynch show. The pilot missed any oddities, but it was good so I continued watching. This episode is where it get's weird. If any of you have seen the Simpsons episode "who shot Mr. Burns, part 2" you're gonna have fun with this one. This episode has the infamous dream sequence, it is weird, it is confusing, but I loved it. This is Lynch at his weirdest and best. I can't help it, I love dream logic, and it is very hard to make on film/TV, but this time they really got it right.

And not to forget the rest of the show, it's getting more intricate, butt hat just makes you wan't to watch the next episode even more.

It's finally getting there, I give this episode a 10/10.

Stop me if you've heard this one before but surely this is the point where TV truly became cinematic (even in 4:3 ratio).

The humour intentional or otherwise is as good as any comedy & I watch early Arrested Development on loop.

The emotional & occasional erotic mystery foundations for still recent payoffs including the first of the often emulated none-bettered Lynch dreamscapes.

But thats the point, for a network Neo Soap to be that ahead of the game - Lynch/Frost's finest hour, Televisions finest hour.

This is David Lynch. Obviously, up to this point, we have been treated to a bevy of quirky characters with insane relationships. There are earthly things going on, including the threat from Leo, who suspects who it is that is visiting his wife when he is gone. Those two thought guys aren't so tough when Leo shows up in the woods where they are supposed to pick up cocaine. Leo's wife is continually victimized by him and is in a fight for her life. But we then have the real Lynch. There is the famous dream sequence which ends the episode. It leads every discussion of this amazing series. But that's not all. Cooper begins to narrow the search for Laura's killer by throwing things at a bottle on a stump. There is a nutty trip to a brothel after a scene with a couple of brothers, Ben and Jerry, munching on a couple of giant sub sandwiches. Then there is that unbalanced vamp, Audrey, dancing to some really odd music in the diner. Here we go!

This is the ultimate Twin Peaks episodes, no doubt about it. This episode contain's the "Cooper & the midget dream sequence", which is really THE scene that everyone still remembers who watched the series back in the 90s, one of the most intense television ever. It's also a fact that the David Lynch episodes where the best. (and the most creepy)

Here the series just gets "weird" for the first time. This really surprised many viewers who up to this point thought they were watching only a murder mystery. Here it gets surrealistic. It's brilliant how Lynch introduced his mind to the masses with twin peaks.
