Let me save you the trouble: “Hey, you’re not Nathan Rabin.” In so many ways you are absolutely correct. Sadly, Nathan can’t be here for the finale this week as he’s attending the funeral of a... Read Comments: 0
So how do you follow up by far the worst episode of the season? With by far the best, naturally.

"Uh, no. You've got to pull it up."
Time for one last greeting from Twin Peaks. Sorry it’s taken so long to get around to this. I never intended the Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me to be the TV Club’s Chinese Democracy but I kept getting busy... Read Comments: 0
