"i find adherence to fantasy troubling and unreasonable."

twin peaks is currently venturing into weekend at bernie's style buffoonery, and introducing ludicrous plot elements which are distracting from the realism aspect of the magical realism. and though i understand it's an element of the parodizing, it's the difference in type between scream and scary movie.

but, i am enjoying david lynch's performance in the role of the clown, which i didn't have advance warning of, and which is the first role i've seen him in (discounting his nonspeaking role in an early short film).
