Never really got into the X-files.

Have you seen many of Lynch's films? I recommend Mullholland Drive as a good starting point, if not.

The first hour of Mulholland Drive was meant to be the pilot for a TV series that never got picked up. So Lynch extended it into a feature length film..., with added adult content .

I absolutely love Twin Peaks. Favourite TV show in the world. I love its mood, and the effect it has on me, so dreamy

I've just recently started. it. I got season 2 coming from Netflix. I can't wait, I love it!

Mullholland Drive is wonderful but very confusing. I finally understood what was going one after the 3rd time I watched it. There is so much meaning and the complex twist of the storyline really makes you think.

Lynch is a favorite of mine and I recommend seeing "My Son, My Son, What Have Ye Done" he is not the main director so it is a little easier to grasp. I think it was released in 2009.

Lynch represents to me a different approach to film making, as did Alfred Hitchcock. I just think people don't understand his work enough.

Twin peaks is currently running on cable in Australia and I was thinking about this as I'm about half way through the second season. I loved the first season though I'm now starting to lose interest fast.

I've seen most of Lynch's films and recommend for those who haven't seen his work to start with 'The Elephant Man'. It's a brilliant film but not as disturbing as many of his other films. But if you love bizarre film then some of his other classics like Blue Velvet, The Lost Highway or Mullholland Drive are the go.

As for Eraserhead, trying to explain the plot of that film is an exercise in futility

How's Annie?

Currently on the second season now. I love this show

LAURA!! !

I found the first season to be quite excellent, though my view of the series started to shift a bit into season 2.

The network had forced Lynch into revealing Laura Palmer's killer, while Lynch himself had wanted to have her murder sort of fade in and out of the storyline, never really to be solved, as other bizarre things went on in town. Maybe the series should have ended with Cooper solving the murder, but Lynch thought he could salvage the story, after philistines had savaged it.

I love Twin Peaks. Best pilot ever! I thought the first season was solid but once Laura's killer was revealed the show kind of went downhill. By the S2 finale things would have gotten really good again had there been a season 3, but w/e...

It would have been an interesting twist if Agent Cooper were Laura's killer and the reason he came to Twin Peaks was to cover his tracks.

Lynch's attention was averted to other projects, which is part of why S2 lost it's "charm"

The second season is pretty bad until it gets more involved with Wyndom Earl as the villain. He's a really good and interesting bad guy.

I absolutely LOVE Twin Peaks, especially near the end with the Black Lodge. David Lynch has an excellent imagination when it comes to horror. The drama is very soap opera-ish but I think that adds a campy charm to it.

I love Agent Cooper. Almost at the end of the show now, the Miss Twin Peaks contest. I don't want it to end
