You knew it was coming. You could hear the almighty footfalls in the distance. You could see the water glass vibrating. I promised it lo, these many weeks ago and now I'm back to keep my promise. This is the EPIC TWIN PEAKS RECOMMENDATION POST OF EPICNESS.

BITTER ALWAYS. Sometimes I feel like I'm overreacting, because it's just a TV show, and it was twenty years ago. And then I remember the "breakup" scene, and I start wanting to break things again. Supposedly- though obviously this is all rumours- part of what fuelled it was that Lara Flynn Boyle (who was going out with Mclachlan at the time) didn't like Sherilyn Fenn, and thus didn't like the idea of her boyfriend having an onscreen relationship. Which a) it's called ACTING for a REASON, you moron, and b) why in the name of all that's holy did the writers go along with it? If I demanded that the writers of a show I was in change the story because I didn't like it, they'd laugh in my face. WHY. WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT.

Bitterness abides.

And not just because I still have the Audrey/Cooper New York Magazine cover from that fall tv season.

I could, but this is quicker: Google Books FTW! The cover is GORGEOUS and the article starts on Page 33.

So that's where that picture came from! I have a black-and-white print of it up on the wall of my dorm room.

(That's one of the things that always boggled me about their decision to axe the storyline. It wasn't like it was planned for the future; they had already started it. They're started it in the second episode. Hell, they'd advertised it. To throw away the storyline at that point, they would have had to destroy all narrative integrity and consis- OH WAIT, THEY DID.)

Oh, and pay particular attention to the last line on page 38.
