S2, E2: Coma

This week, Back to the Double R runs with a dangerous crowd for Season 2, Episode 2, “Coma,” which originally aired on 10/6/90. As ever, we discuss any and all plot points for this ep, so watch before listening!We kick off with a discussion of spoilers versus speculation in a Twin Peaks rewatch, including a couple accidental bullseyes. Colin asks if the magical silliness is beginning to go to far, but is ultimately persuaded that it isn’t; Jennifer looks at the many tangled messages threading through the city and the narrative; Damon visits with the Tremonds and notices something familiar about the drapes; and Jonathan asks about the rules that govern Killer Bob and characters like him. We wrap up with a Twist on musical moments this week and how the show digs its 50s roots. LISTEN: BuzzSprout | Google Podcasts | Spotify | RSS | and more!S2, E2 NOTES: Barber Shop Quartet (19-century American vocal musical form)Lost (2004-2010, ABC TV series)Reflections: An Oral History of Twin Peaks (2014, book, by Brad Dukes)Steven Spielberg (b. 1946, legendary film director)Bear claw (circa 1920s, legendary breakfast pastry)Owl pellets (undigested bits of an owl’s evening meal)Little Red Riding Hood (pre-17th century, European fairy tale)“My Friend Killer Bob” (2021, article at WelcomeToTwinPeaks.com by Henry Lewis)Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997-2003, CW TV series)Fringe (2008-13, FOX TV series)Dracula (1897, gothic horror novel)Werewolf (Middle Ages, famous curse in folklore)Room to Dream (2019, autobiography of David Lynch, with Kristine McKenna)Chilling Adventures of Sabrina (2018-20, Netflix TV series)Riverdale (2017-present, CW TV series)
