Yes this is pure uncut Lynch heroin. My mind was in a state of perpetual blowing up & my face was frozen in a dorky grin. Meticulously unsolves Laura Palmer's murder & envelops it in beautifully layered mystery as it was always meant to be. Hilarious, intriguing, bewildering, horrifying, heartbreaking, pulpy & classy often simultaneously. A willful compendium of Lynch's most harrowing & dreamlike work that is as deeply human as it is absurd & bizarre. The finale is existential shock & awe.

Every Sunday for 20 weeks, Lynch took my brain off its stem, grilled it like a hamburger patty at the RR and put it back where the hole in my soul happened to be. Often self-indulgent and always infuriating, this TP does something unexpected nowadays: it never met your expectations. Not once. That alone would be great, but I am touched by Lynch's humanism - how death, real and imagined, time that passes, is greeted with an open hand and generosity of spirit. Like Laura, it's our saving grace.

Herculean effort by Lynch to create what in some ways is a summation of his entire oeuvre. In 1990 something dark lay beneath the surface of Americana; in 2017 that darkness has spread and is far more out in the open. Many many excellent moments and aspects, and conjoins disparate elements in a remarkable way, Lynch showing (as he did in 1990) how much more is possible for TV than has ever been attempted. A second viewing could lead to a higher score. Demands to be seen on high-grade equipment.

Possibly the finest work of David Lynch's career, which means it ranks with the best film or television ever made. Frankly wipes the floor with anything else I've seen on TV. That ending is legitimately bone-chilling.

You can't go home again. I was confused and disturbed and angry and happy and bored but mostly I was entertained because I had no idea what was going to happen next. Not once. And I can't remember the last time that happened, particularly in a television series. Such a huge part of me wanted all my favorite characters to just pick up where they left off, but honestly, I think that show would have sucked. Lynch proved he is still no ones yes man, and blew me away, again.

An entirely different beast to the original show, Lynch and Frost shit on fan service with this TV-series adaptation of Lost Highway. This is a dark, labyrinthine, indigestible, and very often surreal experience with some semblances of storylines (some of which end questionably), but importantly all the while continuing on with the tale of good and evil followed on from Laura's story in the original show. Not everything is great (Monica Bellucci dream?!), but high quality Lynch is back.

It's self-indulgent and has little regard for the viewer's expectations and desires of a Twin Peaks continuation, and I'm iffy on some of the creative decisions such as the sparse use of music, but surely there is no arguing this return is the most fantastic television event of all time? I've come into every episode so far expecting anything and still been surprised, and left with images I never thought I'd see in my life.

Raises more questions than it answers and confounds expectations. Events that were built up for 25 years are resolved anticlimactically, and characters that have nothing to do with the central plot are introduced & discarded. Time is more the focus than saving or defeating anyone, Lynch using the decades-long interval of encroaching wrinkles & haggardness to great effect. The whole experience is phenomenal, this new TP having more in common with LH, MD & IE than black coffee & cherry pie.

A stream-of-consciousness idea dump for Lynch, who flatters the audience's willingness to feel dark and edgy, as if a dive into a stale underworld excuses all of his mannerisms. Instead of the original Twin Peaks community we find what feels like the hallucinations of a dying man on his sickbed, remixing the horrors of his psyche. But if badly paced amateur theater and jittery, self-devouring faces are your idea of surrealism/a good time, have at it. (PS: Great last scene).

Lynch takes us down a forever self-generating labyrinth where somehow things are tied together that should never be. This season exists somewhere between brave, confident & experimental filmmaking which works given the expertise at the helm. I particularly enjoyed the Dougie subplot, as it's so relatable to the sometimes mindless feeling day to day grind, as well as the various reintroductions of the characters from the original. Lynch given carte blanche is a gift for us all. Encore pls.

Sublime throughout. 25 years later it's the weirdest show on TV again; it remains to be seen if it will be likewise as influential. Despite modest viewership, TV bigwigs should take the hint that enlisting and trusting auteurs is the ticket to pushing the medium in new directions as crowd-pleasing, payoff-driven "prestige" shows written by a roomful of people lose their edge, become exceedingly common, and start to face backlash.

Every scene that seems to be running long ends up paying off (NYC apartment, FBI cig break). Lynch's imagery is manically abstract but still coherent and tangible. Most human interactions are realistic and mundane while some surreal moments are beautifully romantic (Fireman creating Laura). Those inhabiting the other dimension are so powerful, but their existence seems so menial. Whose lives are more important, ours or theirs?

Primarily addresses the difficulty, even the impossibility, of the 'return', so fans who complain that it isn't like the original series are missing the point. There are some uneventful moments, but the temporal discontinuities create a strong sense of psychic dislocation, and the nightmarish black and white segment in episode 8 is full of striking images that rank among Lynch's best work. Ultimately, Season 3 is a testament to the unique power of his imagination that remains fertile in old age.

In this golden age of TV, where we're oversaturated with boundary pushing shows to the point where it's impossible to keep up with it all, Lynch and Frost actually manage to fuck the game up all over again. Even as a huge Lynch (& Twin Peaks) fan I was confounded, challenged and mesmerized on a weekly basis. Daring, terrifying, hilarious, intimately human yet mind-fryingly surreal, sometimes all at the same time. The balls on Lynch, Frost and Showtime to make this. Incredible.

7 Years ago i loved season 3, but with some connotations on duller stretches. After a full rewatch and 7 years of maturing i guess, these connotations have evaporated. From the first to the last second, The Return not only severely entertained me, but also deeply inspired me and yes, even made me feel Understood in a way - not only as a consumer of the art form, but also on a deeper level as a person relating to the world. I think, art that does that, that's a once or twice per lifetime event.

Episode 1, 8, and some of the final episode are phenomenal. I am still shocked how poor the rest of this is. Comes close to a near total miss rate of attempted humor throughout this interminable series with the Catatonic Cooper bits possibly being my least favorite bits of all seasons. Justify this cringe cause I could just go on and on with how many moments throughout felt this awkward - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SfGOOL6j_F8

The agonizing slow burn. The horrors in the darkness. The comedic triumph. Then everything turns itself inside out. A scream in the night. A house on a hill. "What year is this?" Then more darkness, nothing. "Is it past...or is it future?" "There are more things in heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy." Anti-Proustian.

Granted, I didn't wait 25 years for The Return, but what a return it is. Lynch proves that he's gone off the deep end, but that he's still interested in making film that breaks boundaries and explores the in-between places. Episode 8 alone is worth a million points. A fantastic continuation, even if it varies in quality from time to time. Everything is there for a reason.

Abysmal. Not a patch on the original series. What a waste of 18 hours. Almost all characters are annoying, boring, one-dimensional caricatures. Most scenes are completely pointless and infuriating. The humour falls flat 90% of the time and everything that was bad in the original series is amplified here to the max while everything that made the original so great is only sparsely used here and seldom reaches the same level of quality. Truly terrible, should've been 4 hours instead of 18.

Twin Peaks: The Return is something of a miracle. You can never go home again: words that must have been etched into David Lynch's brain during the entire production. It's nostalgic, yes, but it's also horrifying, hilarious, absurd, ponderous, frustrating, and also very gentle. It doesn't lose it's humanity even though it refuses to fall into the trappings left by the show's previous run. I may not have gotten what I wanted out of this show but that's maybe the point. The past remains the past.

Well, I could tell it was made by Lynch, but I ain't gonna see this shit again unless it's condensed down to 5 hours. What exactly was the point of all the characters meandering and taking forever to do the simplest of things? And now Twin Peaks is even more of a variety show by having a new musical guest each week, all of which are lethargic and moribund. There's cool Lynchian things in it, but it's purposeless, there's never going to be an explanation, so there's nothing to gain from it.

Well, it's over. I've never dove into the voluminous Twin Peaks analysis out there, so I'm very much a casual fan, but it seems to me that Twin Peaks 2017 isn't a continuation or sequel to Twin Peaks; it's a series *about* Twin Peaks (and more). Lynch is drawing on the world of Twin Peaks to explore something about... I'm not sure. Dreams, imagination vs reality, fiction and fantasy, myth-making & memory... Something along those lines. I'll write more when season 4 comes out in 2043.

I couldn't get on board with the instant celebration of this as another Lynch masterpiece from the get go. I think there is a lot that went kind of awry here, and it's almost a mess, but a fascinating one. This is why I persist in my belief that people like Lynch should be allowed free reign, and proper megalomaniac artists should be set loose on the world, to botch their visions.

Like a lot of Lynch, I have no clue what 85% of this was, but I loved it. LOVE Cole's character. Cooper's character for the first 15 episodes reminded me of an even more dialed up Peter Sellers in Being There. Great stuff. Not sure I love it more than the original series, but it's amazing. First couple of episodes kind of struck me like Fire Walks with Me in that they're a lot more aggressively and consistently weird in a way I didn't love but after that, great.

Not really designed for binge watching- reducing it by four hours (or even making it half as long) would help there. There are some terrible visual effects and one amazing sequence in 'Gotta Light'- did they skimp on the budget for most of the run time in order to be able to afford that desert aerial shot? The bad 2D After Effects are outdone by the oddity of what I think were supposed to be several day-for-night shots. Chrysta Bell has some very odd mannerisms. I think it is half a joke.

It has moments that echo Lynch's earlier brilliance, but more often than not it's the same murky bullshit that has comprised all of his post-Twin Peaks work. As such, it should perhaps best be approached simply as new David Lynch film using (some) characters and motifs from the original series, rather than as a true continuation of said series per se. I do give Lynch credit for completely disregarding what fans might have expected, let alone the norms of "prestige television" for that matter.
