The Who Killed Laura Podcast Ep 29 - I’ll see you again in 25 years

Welcome back to the Who Killed Laura Podcast with Scott and Chris. Happy New Year, and as the first bit of writing for 2017, it might be a good time to reflect on a 2016 filled with more loss than usual, at least for those of us who grew up in the ‘70s and ‘80s, or who, you know, felt like half the country went insane, give or take a few million voters. And while this year will certainly bring its challenges, at least we came to the conclusion of a rewarding series of podcasts covering the original Twin Peaks series and, once we discuss Fire Walk With Me and some other Peaks goodness, will have the long-awaited new David Lynch-directed Showtime episodes to experience.

This episode, “Beyond Life and Death,” is directed by David Lynch, last seen for Episode 14′s “Lonely Souls,” and was written by co-creator Mark Frost along with Harley Peyton and Robert Engels, who had taken a larger role in season two when Frost was busy preparing is film, Storyville. However, as Lynch told them, he would be ignoring a lot of the script as he kept conceiving and filming scene after scene for the hallucinatory Black Lodge section of the episode. We’ll discuss more of the shifting roles and alliances when we get into the Lynch/Engels-written TP:FWWM. 

Agent Cooper’s following Windom Earle into the Black Lodge to stop him and save Annie takes up much of the episode, but there’s also Dr. Heyward finally striking back at Ben Horne for his misguided honesty damaging the Heyward family, Nadine coming back from her high school fantasy romance with Mike to a devastating reality where her husband Ed has taken up with Norma, Leo Johnson left shackled and perhaps fatally boobytrapped, and Audrey Horne, Pete Martell and Andrew Packard all perhaps succumbing to a bomb left at the Twin Peaks Savings & Loan by Thomas Eckhardt as a final act of revenge.

At the time, this episode was looked at by some as a kind of thumbing of the nose at the ABC network, or even at the viewers who had misunderstood and abandoned the series, but as Reflections: An Oral History of Twin Peaks reveals, the many dire cliffhangers in this episode were intended to convince the network to renew the series for one more season. The well-intentioned gambit didn’t pay off, and fans will have to wait a few more months to find out what happened to these characters, though some answers may be found (as well as a deeper mystery that may be explored in the series), such as the fates of Audrey Horne and Hank Jennings. 

 

We’d love to hear your thoughts on the final epispode of the original run!

The Who Killed Laura Podcast Ep 28 - I hope it doesn’t hurt this bad in a week

 

Welcome back to the Who Killed Laura Podcast! Tonight we discus the penultimate episode of the original series. Miss Twin Peaks, aired as part of a two part season finale that ended up being a series finale for the next 25 years. The Final 2 episodes saw a 3 million viewers bump in the ratings to a total of 10.4 million on June 10th, 1991. There was a 6 week break between the airing of the finale and the the previous episode, enough time to generate a little extra buzz for the show. The first half of the finale was written by Barry Pullman and directed Tim Hunter

Scott and Chris discuss the Miss Twin Peaks pageant that, as speculated, includes most major female characters as well as the final stages of Windom Earle’s plans, Eckhardt’s mystery box, and Nadine’s delusions. We are in the home stretch and even though this episode aired on the same night as the finale, you’ll have to wait until the next Who Killed Laura Podcast to wrap up the original Television run of Twin Peaks. Of course, Scott and Chris will be back for Fire Walk with Me as well as the upcoming Showtime continuation and maybe even some special episodes on the various Peaks related material!

The Who Killed Laura Podcast Ep 27 - A fish I am not particularly fond of

 

There are a lot of fish in Twin Peaks, just ask Pete Martell. In this episode, however, Agent Cooper mentions one he isn’t particularly fond of, the Red Herring. There have been plenty of those in town too. Scott and Chris are back to discuss the last episode before the two-part series (season) finale.

Titled The Path to the Black Lodge, and airing on April 18, 199, this episode was written by the main duo of Harley Peyton and Robert Engels and directed by star father Stephen Gyllenhaal. The ratings held to only a small drop of a half million viewers to 7.4 million this week.

There is a lot happening in this episode, but it starts with dead Ted Raimi, the Heavy Metal Youth. He was literally a Pawn in the game of life. We get some good background on Windom Earle and Project Blue Book. Also this episode has possibly the best costume in the Windom Earle Party City Halloween Superstore! Leo tries to stand up to Windom and Audrey says goodbye to John Justice Wheeler. More and more of our female characters are joining the Miss Twin Peaks pageant. Cooper can’t get his mind off of Annie and the Giant is trying to send him a message. And all the while, Andy is trying to crack the petroglyph from Owl Cave. We can’t wait to talk about it with you!
