Dale's completely inappropriate sheepish grins during serious situations just kill me.

He's like an affable sociopath.

I've long suspected that Cooper is on the spectrum or something. He's simultaneously totally normal and completely abnormal.

Twin Peaks aside, why is it that Bruce Dern (Laura's dad) play the worst like characters in all his movies?

The makeup in the show is so so good.
Well, aside from the yellowface.

Well, aside from the yellowface.

Im glad you point this out because I think I needed to reflect on my perception of this within the show. I hope Im not biased against Asian people, but I must admit that each time Ive watched the show, the Mr. Tojamura arc didnt even stand out as anything wrong to me; its clearly very problematic, not quite Breakfast at Tiffanys bad, but pretty fucking bad. It doesnt affect how much Twin Peaks means to me, but I think I will have to make the caveat that theres no doubt it contains a racist and offensive portrayal of an Asian man using yellowface and manufactured broken English and I definitely dont want to overlook or downplay that when telling others about the show or recommending it to them.

Im conflicted on season 3 so far. On one hand, Lynchs direction is mesmerizing and the deadpan humor is great.

On the other hand, I have no idea what the fuck is happening. Did Coops mind finally break from seeing all this weird shit?

His doppelgnger is the one in jail right now. But Coop came back and randomly took the place of Dougie Jones, another guy who looks identical to him. And now the real Coop can barely speak and hes being scolded by Naomi Watts like hes a 5-year-old.

Im not complaining, though. Im still very curious to see where the story goes.

Dougie was a Tulpa.

The Fireman tells Cooper and Mike tells Jones himself.

Yeah S3 is very different. If you're sitting there every episode waiting for Twin Peaks to be like the first two seasons, you'll be disappointed. The town of Twin Peaks is just one of the locations in this season but never the main location.

Sorta. He has been stuck in that other dimension for 20 years after all. Also like the other person said, both evil Coop and Dougie are tulpas/doppelgangers. Dougie was just an imperfect one that iirc was created by the arm as a vessel for the real Coop to come back to the real world.

The Black Lodge is a Labyrinth.

S3 shows this.

Also different planes of existence happening at once or going into the other in the real world.

Yup just like the Dutchman's Lodge or the motel where they are keeping tea kettle Jeffries.

TC will really be confused at the end regarding the pocket dimension with Carrie and Judy.

Not quite: The original plan was that real Coop would switch places with Evil Coop, who would get dragged back into the Lodge. Evil Coop attempted to circumvent this by creating a tulpa (Dougie), and having the Arm's Doppleganger interfere with the original switch, which was supposed to happen when Evil Coop got sick driving on the highway. Instead real Coop got sent flying through space/the glass box/the power outlet and ended up switching places with Dougie.

Also doppelgangers and tulpas are not the same thing. Tulpas are created/manufactured copies of people, doppelgangers are naturally existing shadow versions of the self which occupy the Black Lodge.

I read that some of the Nuke effects was made when someone filmed the sun behind trees in a car and then sped the filming of it up.

It was lovely surrealism. Needless to say, I have no idea what any of it meant.

But from what I gather the weird surreal universe was created because of the atomic bomb?

Pretty much what others have said.

It grabbed alien attention or opened a hole of time or dimensions.
