Part 17 was great but after that things went sharply in a Mulholland Drive/Lost Highway direction, which I am not sure was the right move for a show as distinctive as Twin Peaks.
Too many threads and characters were just abandoned. There must have been much more to tell for Audrey, for example?

Agent Dale Cooper is forever in alternate realities. |

What does everyone think of the roads at night shots? I used to be scared when my parents were driving me at night at a child, especially through the country. I recall having a couple of nightmares about it. It's fairly spooky.
Anyway, I can't comment on the story since I think it was likely out of order.

That was odd, heck just plain weird. Time travel, really, Lynch? And a cliffhanger that is even worse than the last one we had to live with for 25 years? Really Lynch?
Fuck you, Lynch!

If there will be another season, I'm going to guess it's going to take way more than 1 year for it to come out

They turned Cooper into the Flash, and he was reduced to a spectator while Freddy took on Bob/Mr C. And no resolution on Audrey, smh.

It does seem to need a Season 4. What they did with Audrey was just cruel
... and yet the Arm repeated a line from her in the finale verbatim. Little bits like that make me think the whole story is mixed together in the show like with Lost Highway and Mulholland Dr. Except this time it is 18 hours so it will be a long wait before people can process everything.

Yeah, I think a good chunk of the TP fanbase feels alienated & probably won't even watch it. I wonder how the Showtime execs feel? Surely they must be a bit annoyed |

Apparently Showtime announced on the 8th of August that it was over. No season 4.
So, unless some other channel picks it up, or Showtime changes their mind, it's all over indeed. And now we're stuck with an ending that's a great deal worse than the original season 2 ending.
This is a horrific ending. It cannot get any grimmer, apart from everyone dying and Bob having survived. It's a Mulholland Drive kind of ending, combined with a weird Inland Empire build-up. But time travel, for fuck's sake, that was awful. The original show is done and dead. Everything we've seen has become unraveled and basically never happened. That's a messed up way to end it all.
Great ending shot though, lights go out in the house, the voice of Sara Palmer calling out for her daughter, and Laura screaming her lungs out. If there was a fourth season, it might have worked. But to end it all like that, just horrible.

I think it's evident that if Earth was literally about to end, Lynch would still give us more questions than answers. At least now I've learned to expect it, compared to the frustrating cliffhanger of season 2 and wasting his movie chance on a prequel (I've grown to appreciate Fire Walk With Me, but still). If we ever get a follow up, which I doubt, great. If not, oh well. I'm beyond caring.

I told y'all it would suck. I hoped it would improve as the season progressed but it didn't. The Emperor was naked.

If anyone was seriously expecting Lynch to give us a proper conclusion with everything answered, you guys were watching the wrong show. I don't like that he did so little with some characters (Audrey, and not even mentioning Donna), but I can appreciate the ideas he had with that last episode. Judy most likely being the creature in Sarah Palmer and real "villain" of the show Cooper keeps trying to save Laura from no matter what reality Judy throws them into.

It's not really about answering everything, more like he destroyed the entire world he created in those first two seasons without giving anything in return.
I guess it does revolve around the idea that Cooper is forever trying to save Laura when it is impossible to do so, apparently. But give the viewer something, at least the first two seasons and the movie did that much.

This. The first two seasons were wiped out. With Cooper messing up the timeline, I don't even know what events in season 3 is still valid. And traveling through time/dimensions to change the past or create a new timeline? That has been done to death in the Flash, Legends of Tomorrow and other sci fi shows and films. Nothing wrong with the idea, but I was hoping for something unique. I still maintain that TPTR had some great episodes. esp from ep 11 onward. But the finale was a letdown. I was not expecting to get answers to everything, but at least something. |

I do agree that there were good episodes in this season, but as a whole I'm not really liking it. Definitely not with this ending 
There is a new book coming out this November, by Frost. Although I'm not hopeful, it might provide some answers as to what happened and if there really was a reset of the world of Twin Peaks, what the results of that reset were.
Available for preorder

Well, that's open for debate. Cooper did reference to a dream, if I'm not mistaken, so, who knows?
