And imo it is pretty accurate. I never interpreted the Lodge residents as self-aware TV characters before, and the idea of it all being a metatextual commentary on television makes a lot of sense when you rewatch The Return. Discuss.

the Fireman in the palace in the Endless Ocean is the balanced world of Film and the unified field of Transcendental Meditation that Lynch pulls his ideas from.

the Black Lodge and the Convenience Store is the world of lowbrow TV tropes and Mike + the Arm are plot devices that know they are plot devices informing a TV show. Same with the Woodsmen, they are all meta and self-aware about their position "behind the red curtain" of a TV show.

BOB is born after the nuclear test launch and represents the new zeitgeist of lust for lurid violent television entertainment that always resolves itself in the end for "closure". Audiences and the studio demanded closure from Lynch and he was forced to reveal Laura's murderer, killing the show and proving his point about the lack of balance in television.

In the Return, The Fireman (Lynch) sends Laura Palmer to the TV world from the Film world to restore balance to televison and the zeitgeist. This is Lynch trying to drill his point home one last time, but the Return is ultimately giving the audience what they asked for while also showing them what a hollow experience it truly is (the scene in episode 17 at the sheriff's with Freddy and the green glove).

There's a lot more to it than that, but such is the jist.

the show from the beginning was referencing and playing around with soap opera conventions. that's a bit element of the whole project that a lot of people seem to miss. specifically a show called 'Peyton Place,' which was hugely popular in the 1960's when Lynch was younger.

not just soap operas, everything that was TV at the time - nighttime soaps, murder mysteries, and sitcoms.

I refuse to believe this just because it’s so tragic. Self-referential “art” is so homo. Like anybody who writes a song about the radio needs to kill themselves.

I want to believe lynch had bigger thoughts.

Ofc. I’d recommend watching it once, then IMO if you really want to understand it, watch Season 1, Season 2, Mulholland Drive, Fire Walk with Me, the Missing Pieces, The Return (season 3), Lost Highway.

I've seen seasons 1 and 2, i read about FWWM and didn't see the point. I don't want to watch a bunch of deleted scenes. Lost Highway is a great movie, haven't seen anything else by him.
