8/10
A nice entrance to the surreal nature of Lynch.

Warning: Spoilers
This episode is everything you'd expect it to be. It's much like the previews show premieres, an hour full of nice introductions to characters we will certainly enjoy.

The episode starts at a *supposed* grey room, where we get to see the Giant, played by the legendary Carel Struycken. As well as our Cooper, (or is he?), played by the also legendary Kyle MacLachlan. We get to also see Doctor Jacoby, and his whereabouts, but not much is shown. Throughout the episode we also see some othermajorncharacters from the old series, as well as locations we revisit and will be visiting this whole run. However, it is noted that the note and pace do feel different, perhaps more Lynch-like, exactly how he would want the original show to play out. The colors are more dull, more cold, chilling. Greens and blues play out on our major locations, such as the Twin Peaks town, as well as Buckhorn. Enjoyers of the original seasons will notice this, some enjoy it, some not so much, mainly because of nostalgia-driven reasons. All in all, a great introductory episode to a great season. The best has yet to come.
