Message: <blockquote data-quote="Rackhir" data-source="post: 1813934" data-attributes="member: 149">I call it the escalation problem, I think Evangellion also suffered from that to a great extent. Twin Peaks remember wasn't really supposed to be much more than a Mini-Series. In fact an ending was shot revealing who Bob was which they showed in the European broadcast version. So I don't think they did have a plan either, if fact I don't even believe there was much if any planning for the end that they did shoot. Lynch just sort of picked this guy off the set (I think it was the same one who did play Bob later though). With this sort of show, you have to keep escalating the mystery. It has to be going somewhere, dropped hints and dark suggestions will work for a while, but eventually you have to have them pay off and be resolved/answered in someway. Now I think someone posted, that they have planned to have partial resolutions at the end of each season and lesser ones scattered over the course of the series which as I believe was supposed to be 3 yrs according to the post. With fortunately provisions made for wrapping things up, if the fickle whims of the public and broadcasters bring it down sooner. So it sounds like they do have a plan and they do have a point. Hopefully we will be looking at a B5 ending and not a Twin Peaks. Though I did rather like the last scene in the TV series being Coop repeatedly smashing his face into the mirror, while someone was asking "Coop, are you Ok?". And then you see an absolutely maniacally grinning expression on Kyle's face as the blood slowly rolls down his face. Not a great ending, but a great sceen at least. Some people claim that there was a movie made, but I do not believe such lies.</blockquote>
