Well, since Sci posted the "What are you listening to?" thread, I thought it would be okay to make another "What are you watching thread?"
I'm watching David Lynch's and Mark Frost's Twin Peaks: The Return.
I watched the original run of Twin Peaks back in the day, and when I heard it announced back in 2014, I thought, well, I'll give it a go. Though I love me some Lynch, I didn't have high expectations for the show and went in with that mindset. I didn't even watch the new episodes when they first aired and was behind by several episodes when I finally started watching them (using Showtime Anytime -- I never watch anything at appointed times anymore!). But, wow, I got totally sucked in and love it.
Yes, it's full of Lynch-type "weirdness," but it has continued its themes of duality, in the material world and the "spiritual" world, and touches on a lot of esoteric themes.
But some of these new episodes are absolutely brilliant, in my opinion.
I know Lynch and particularly Twin Peaks isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I was surprised at how much I love it.
So, what are you all watching?
