So, I wrote this fun little thing for 25YL: https://25yearslatersite.com/2018/03/04/favorites-top-5-controversial-twin-peaks-characters/
What do y'all think of my list? Whom would you choose?
You know what, I read the article last night and didn't even look at who wrote it! Sorry mate ?
Good list, I probably put Doug Milford in, if we're taking into account the books as well. I still struggle to see that doddering old goat from season 2 as the spook from The Secret History.
Surprised the floor sweeper in the Roadhouse didn't get a mention too ?

Yeah, well, the floor sweeper goes unnamed. That's probably why I didn't think of him. Dougie Milford is a good one. Also, Lana. Man, I could have easily gotten to 10, eh?
Could easily make a supplemental list....
Little Nicky...there must be someone out there who loves Little Nicky (I don't know who but stranger things have happened!)
And Evelyn Marsh too! (That really is scraping the bottom of the barrel).
Actually I will go on record as loving Dick Tremayne. It's not his fault the Little Nicky storyline sucks. Or the pine weasel/model contest. In fact, if he hadn't been there for both, the fast forward button would be being hammered.
But Billy is on there. ?
**edit** why does the winking emoji look more like a dude who got shot in the eye?

Prolly base upon a soccer player. ?

Glad you've reemerged from the shadows. Good to see you again.
Aye. Was reading through old discussions at work this weekend. There are many doozies! Hope they decide to do another season.

If anyone is willing to defend Evelyn, I will listen...

I certainly can't defend Evelyn. But are others on your list debatable? Cuz Windom Earle?
I mean, the idea is kind of that they are all debatable... What about Windom Earle?

I personally think he was one of the worse things to happen to TP. I get the idea and I understand the need once the Laura Palmer mystery was solved. But IMHO, Earle was a clown and at no point in time did I feel that he was any actual threat to anybody or anything.
It would seem I wasn't alone in that either. He was originally after Shelley, Audrey & Donna and even they seemed uninterested. "Hmmm, we all got this weird piece of a letter and are being stalked by some (barely) creepy old guy. Oh well, I'm going home alone, see you tomorrow at school." Even their parents were less than worried. "There is a lunatic stalking my daughter. Let's do a beauty pageant!"
Cooper was pretty blase' about it too. "Psycho killer possibly after the love of my life......I'm an FBI agent who should either shut down this pageant or get some serious security detail.....Nope, let us carry on!"
Then all that ridiculous stuff with Leo (I was actually routing for Leo at that point) and dancing around in his long undies and playing the flute......
None of it made sense. None of it created suspense or concern for characters we had grown attached to or were just learning to love. I just shake my head in shame even thinking about it.
To me, Windom Earle was worse than James's song, and I REALLY hate that song.
