F##k you David Lynch, i hate you so much right now 🙁
I laughed at the end. My first thoughts were 'This is the most David Lynch thing David Lynch ever did. Fans are gonna be pissed.'
I wasn't expecting a conventional final two episodes so I wasn't really mad
NOT "everyone's." Speak for yourself.
Pretty much what I expected. I thought 17 was, quite honestly, badly done, rushed and amateurish. It seemed to me as if they said "Oh bollocks, we're running out of time and we have a lot to get through... Right, guys, exposition here, wrap up there, drop these characters, explain that away, ingore these bits and... go!"
Episode 18 was much, much better, IMO. All the way through there was a sense of something going seriously, terribly wrong. The ending was pure Twin Peaks, with a large helping of Philip K Dick, IMO.
I hope Karen's idea is right and there will be enough interest to pester the corporate types to commission another series but somehow I doubt it.
It's not just the finale. It's the entire season. I'm very disappointed. This was not written, filmed, and broadcast week to week. This was all planned out in advance before filming began. And yet we spend something like 1/3 of the finale watching people drive??? We've all seen Lost Highway. We've all seen Mulholland Drive. We paid to see Twin Peaks, not watch people drive.
The entire season felt like this. Sure, there were some good moments. But most of the time, I was just frustrated waiting on ANYTHING to happen.
And don't you dare come back with "You just don't get Lynch". This season was poorly executed, and he should be called out on that.

I think some of it was poorly executed. I enjoyed it overall, though. That's a win for me.
I loved how "Fire Walk With Me" the whole thing was, especially the very last scene.

There will only be more if the interest is there so if you want more... make it happen by letting them know

I need another watch cause I'd had a few sherries yesterday and probably didn't give it the attention it deserved but the first episode seemed a bit of "here's everything you wanted" and the second was Lynch saying here's what I wanted. I did enjoy it, both for different reasons though.
The entitlement within this thread is making me a little sick to be honest.
I only just finished watching both parts. My current reaction is confusion. My brain is sad because I do not understand. It took weeks to fully piece together clues from other episodes, I am making the assertion now that these episodes will make sense one day,.
My problem with 18 is that it seems to be setting up new questions when those making the show knew:
1. they have no more episodes/seasons in which to answer them
2. a majority of their viewers need/want closure at the end of a series even if they're not given 100% clarity
I'm not saying that everything should be wrapped up neatly. I understand that's not Lynch's bag. Nobody wants to be left hanging or required to go buy a book in a couple months just to find out how their favorite TV show ended. When you watch a show to its end you're somewhat entitled to know how it ends for the primary antagonist. We're left not knowing if Dale is awake or if he even exists.
At least Dougie Jones, Janey-E, and Sonny Jim get to live happily (as far as we know).

Yeah, all those scenes that took place in Sheriff Truman's office was a mess! Jesus! So rushed it hurts! Wonder what the actors thought. It felt like a silly school play.
