no. why do you think FWWM got panned when it came out? because it was way too weird for twin peaks.

I wouldn't recommend jumping directly into the new madness but you probably won't enjoy the weird hammy shenanigans of the original.

The Extreme Rules main event could be a super fun match.

I'm loving everything about the new episodes, I watched all 4 last night. If it keeps up I think they have something incredibly special
Was originally dreading having to wait 2 weeks for more but I'm going out of town this weekend so it's more like one week.

This is why you don't listen to people on here, Nak won. They're just complaining because Dolph is trash.

The new season dives head first into the weird shit from the first two series and gets even weirder. The first season introduces the odd Buddhist/occultist/Jungian stuff in a more quirky and funny way rather than just throwing you in the deep end.
All of those shows they run in India!

How are you complaining about something you clearly didn't watch?
I wouldn't of if the show wasn't as old as it is. Too many shows don't look good after that long, so decide to jump into the new series. But it isn't for me.
how do you think they plan on starting?
I didn't love Fire Walk with Me when I first saw it. I thought it was okay. But I think people -- myself included -- wanted to see more Peaks-y stuff. More Coop. More special agentz. But it was very Laura-y.
After watching it a second time, I appreciate it a lot more. But it was a hard transition from TV show Twin Peaks.

He won the GFW title off of Magnus on Impact, and he beat EC3 so at Slammiversary he's challenging Lashley for the TNA title too
The big story for their show is good guy Del Rio coming in and being mega world champ of everything
Yep. They were already posting banners of dude with the belt in India weeks ago.
They're about to make a killin over there.
They'd have to run in massive venues as well to make the money they want. Considering a lot of fans in India can't pay the average cost of a ticket for a WWE show.

Thanks for the correction; I read somewhere that he lost.
I mean, he lost in the sense that they booked it where it was hard for him to defeat Dolph fucking Ziggler.

One India show will equal 5 regular shows because they're richer!

You smoking that urban shit again?

I get where you're coming from
However, I think the original series holds up because of its particular brand of weirdness. Any "dated" aspects were already deliberately there and hammy. The original series is more of a twisted, hammy soap opera wrapped around a murder mystery. The new series is a completely different beast that still goes hand in hand with what came before. But it's challenging, even for fans of the series
I watched the original a few years ago for the first time and really enjoyed it. I actually watched all of season 1 and fell off. Picked up season 2 a year later and I was hooked.
I really enjoyed True Detective season 1. Even though, at a glance, Twin Peaks is totally different in tone and format (though the new season definitely matches the darkness/grit), I think the core murder mystery in a small town with weird occult happenings gives the same kind of intrigue
It's a lot of interactions where you're not sure what's really happening, what people really know, and it all gradually unravels until midway in season 2

I showed my girlfriend the ladder match from Saturday and she was so sad they lost and was saying how much she loves them together. Fast forward to the logo popping up and the show ends just when the betrayal happens and she wanted to cry. What a mark.

FYI, WWE's next tour of India isn't until September, so get ready for the Summer of Jinder.

I just hope he feuds with a bunch of people I don't give a shit about, freeing those that I do to feud with each other...
Then I can just watch Jinder WE champion for the ridiculous spectacle it is.
Because god knows Randy WWE Champ in 2017 was quite literally watching paint dry.

Really I'd rather watch Roman dominate Raw than Jinder on SD because at least with Roman I know the bad promos and boring angles will at least end in a probably great match because Roman is actually pretty good in the ring.
There's nothing to look forward to with Jinder.

It's a net 0 change.
Well I'll say this, at least it's *new*. We've had Orton as champion a billion times already.

How was the PPV yesterday? I didn't watch. Thinking of canceling sub, actually I am going to cancel today.

Orton needs to get off the weed and go back to the pills or whatever he was taking during his Legend Killer run.

If you are basing your decision on last night's show, cancel immediately.
But if you haven't watched Takeover, 100% do that before cancelling.
I prefer Jinder to Roman
