This week on the Damn Fine TV podcast…
We begin in space. Or is it the woods? Those worlds begin to collide as we discuss Twin Peaks, season 2, episode 13: “Checkmate.” Twin Peaks begins to collide with itself, too, as this episode holds many references and echoes to past events. It’s a juicy episode - sorry, we promise to stop using that word now - with just the right balance of shadow and light.
We’re back on the whiplash-giving rollercoaster that is Bobby and Shelly. We’re sleuthing with Andy and Dick. We pass some love notes with Ed and Norma. We empty our savings account with James. We do not take part in the Civil War. And we say goodbye to one of the show’s best villains, the incomparable, the suave, the perfectly-accented, Jean Renault.
What are your thoughts on the episode? What was your favourite moment? Did you love Jean Renault’s final monologue as much as we did? How do you feel about Ben Horne at this point? Head over to our Instagram to chat with us!
