Tammy will be the hero.


Although, according to the complaints of some, season 3 has been rather "flat" or still just getting warmed up (3/4 of the way through), Tammy is one character who has an arc.

In the conversation between Denise and Cole, Cole's defense of Tammy was a hint that she is destined for greatness. Initially it seemed sometimes that Tammy was Cole's pet, but we've also been shown that -- while Cole appreciates Tammy's allure as much as the next hetero male -- they are not involved. Further, Albert revealed how they had been grooming Tammy. Tammy's great anxiousness at the start of her induction into the Blue Rose squad -- or rather the way the direction dwelt upon it -- puts Tammy into the forefront as a character about to embark on a quest. I think it's a quest that will end with her as the decisive hero.

reply

Tammy is as boring as you are.

reply

I disagree. I think Tammy is alluring and charming, and her character arc is rising. Unlike actors and/or characters that seem to have simply been "brought back" because fans expect/demand it, Tammy and the actress are new and a deliberate part of Lynch's design.

reply

Yes but she hasn't done much so you can't say she hasn't been boring so far. I think she's pretty ridiculous, the way she walks and behaves, as if she craved male attention. You would think an FBI agent is above that kind of bullshit.

reply

Audrey needs to teach that hooker how to walk across a room.

reply

She's not a hooker, although she does seem to think she's a sex siren or something. And I disagree, and FBI agent shouldn't walk in a silly 'over-feminine' way, she should walk 'normal' and start using her brain while she's at it. Oh and her awful painted eyebrows also really annoy me. I guess she just forgot to paint a black beauty spot on her cheek to finish her ridiculous look off.

reply

Lol about the beauty mark. I don't know, im sticking with hooker. Im really glad all us gals could come together and hate on her though. Ahh..good ol' female bonding.

reply

Don't care for her.

reply

do you have a penis.

reply

Character...

reply

do you have a brain?

reply

Must be in his penis.

reply

I am assuming that is a "No".

reply

She probably has a bigger penis than you do. LOL

reply

That sounds hot.

And you sound jealous.

reply

Why should I be, maybe mine is already big enough.

reply

Because Chrysta Bell is like 40 and looks amazing, a fully mature woman with statuesque features as well as CREATIVE, graceful, and smart. While you probably developed British Face at 28 and started cutting your thin hair short at 35. You give yourself a Liverpool tan about once a year, but the rest of the time your skin looks like a map of Micronesia.

reply

She's 40?! Wow, now i really hate her. I have to ask....what is British Face?

reply

Maybe that's your problem Bobby Briggs Briganza, that you have a British Face. LOL Well guess what? I'm NOT British, and in actual fact I get most complimented on my fabulous thick natural hair and my great skin, without fillers or botox. Oh and I hate tanning, so maybe that's why I have good porcelain skin.

And for a 40 year old I don't think Chrysta Bell looks that great. She's got botox, for starters. Let's see how she looks without it.

reply

Just because Tammy is hot, doesn't mean that I have to like her character. Duh.

reply

Exactly. Bobby Briggs Briganza equates 'sexy character' with a an interesting character. I don't like here because I find her boring. I like Audrey Horne, who was also considered sexy, because she isn't boring. Go figure.

reply

Audrey was a great character and sexy too. I don't get the penis reference when it comes to how interesting a character is. Weird.

reply

Don't expect much from someone with the brain of a third grader. lol

reply

Obviously not.

I just asked if you had a penis.

I'm trolling MyName123456789, who wants to virtue-signal by showing us she thinks "looks aren't everything" or "brains are more important." Everyone knows that already and no one cares, i.e. it need not be said, but the fact she feels the need to say it shows how numbingly basic and unimaginative she is.

reply

You need to change the tape...kiddo. 😜

reply

Why did he want to know if I had a penis? Is he interested?

reply

Already answered this Q.

reply

You asked Modica if she had a penis, not me, so no you haven't answered her.

Nevermind.....πŸ¦„

reply

So literal-minded...jesus christ.

Mind your own business you old biddy.

reply

You're the one not minding your own business, kiddo. Modica asked ME a question, not you. See the difference?

I wonder what I should buy tomorrow in the shops...πŸ›’....mmmm....

reply

Guys, not that it matters, but I am a boy.

reply

So am I!

Nah, just kidding.

reply

Hmmmm....

reply

What man calls himself a boy?

Answer to the original question, confirmed.

reply

There is no reason for you to be so nasty to me. I never attacked you. I'm done.

reply

Yeap, maybe he loves penises. Dreams of them. πŸ˜†πŸ™ƒ

reply

I do love penises and dream of them.

But you still obviously don't get what's going on. It reminds me off those seniors watching things like this:
https://youtu.be/zx-WoMdBfV8?t=14s

reply

LOL

Wanna bet you're older than me?

reply

What do your grandchildren call you? Nan? Mima? Gram? Gigi?

reply

They call me Poodles! LOL πŸ‘«πŸ‘―πŸ‘ΆπŸ‘΅

As if I even have grandchildren...seriously. 😱

What do your mummy and daddy or the 🦍who brought you up call you.... Hewie? 🀦

reply

It's so sweet how seniors try to use up all the emojis on their tablets. It's like they think they're doing "what the kids are all doing these days", "With the LOL and the WTF," but actual kids don't even bother with that big list of emojis. My mom sends me messages with emojis and I have no idea what they are supposed to be.

So which is it?: I'm a little baby or I'm older than you?

reply

Depends which personality is out! 🀸

reply

Finally: She admits her personality disorder. Wish I could have had that warning at the beginning.

Maybe try some Melatonin?

BTW, I don't even know what emojis you're posting. They just show up as squares or weird symbols.

reply

No, I meant YOUR personality disorder.

Too bad you are missing out on my emojis....πŸ’ͺ

reply

Poodles??? πŸ©πŸΎπŸ˜‚

reply

ahahaha! Typical delusional senior citizen claim.

My old Sicilian granny used to rave about her "porcelain skin" and "thick hair," along with her "hourglass figure" (LOL!) and how her doctor supposedly would say she looked decades younger than her age. "Fillers or botox"? Who do you think you're talking to here? That stuff doesn't mean anything to me. That's crap that catty women gossip about with each other.

You can have British Face and be from Australia, duh!

reply

πŸ‘² be nice to πŸ‘΅

reply

I will bring some butterscotch candies when I come to visit.

reply

Mmmm yummy. I bet you will have scoffed them before though. Next time Mr Nice Dentist gives you a balloon after fixing your rotting teeth.....remember to thank me for buying them in the first place.

reply

Werther's Originals.

reply

Mmmmmmm.

Is that how the man with the raincoat enticed you into his magical car....with Werther's Originals? 🎈

Impossible! 🎈

Or her death.

reply

...tammy??!! ...really?! So i had to google because i didn't know who you were talking about. That's because in my head i call her dumb fbi bitch. That 10ft ginger freak will not save anything except lynch's dick from going limp.

I don't want to talk about tammy.

reply

You may not want to talk about Tammy, but you will be talking about her -- mark my words.

And if she can save Lynch's dick from going limp, that alone calls for a hero's medal.

reply

Right about that!
My catty anger derives from my fear that you may be correct. I didn't know that was her last name til i looked her up.

reply

Yes this Christa Bell only got this gig because of Lynch's infatuation with her. They've even recorded music together.

In anycase, so far, nobody likes Tammy except you. And Lynch. lol

reply

And Janey E only wanted to have sex with Dougie after she saw him in the doctors office. So?

Why are you so negative about bodies / sexuality? Why pretend like we have to exclude looks when considering someone positively? Your elderly prudery is showing. How often do you dye your hair?

reply

I'm not negative about bodies/sexuality. What has that got to do with an FBI agent that acts as if she was Jessica Rabbit? It's just not credible!

Oh thanks for reminding me, I better buy some hair dye! And you don't forget that it's school day tomorrow, hey? That's a good boy!

reply

It's just not credible!

Holy crap, you really don't understand David Lynch. Are you watching Game of Thrones and Matlock on Sundays nights, and recording TP for the next day to "watch" while prepping the potatoes?

reply

I watched it live, no potato prepping for me! Games of Thrones I watched days before...leaked episode you see.

I do understand Lynch. Cole is meant to be a bit of a ladies man anyway. I guess I just imagined Tamara differently. Same about Diane.

reply

It was painfully obvious as soon as she was introduced that Lynch is banging her. She is not a good actress or an interesting character. She always seems awkward despite doing very little other than attempting to do a sexy walk in every scene. It's a sad comment on how crappy the season has been that tammy may very well be the "hero"

reply

Hey, well at least I've got you *sort of possibly* on board with the hero idea.

And if Lynch is banging her, more power to him. I think it's more likely that he has just been working with the actress for 17-18 years on music projects and such -- she is "the new Julee Cruise" -- and he threw her a bone (pun not intended), like he threw a bone to a lot of other D-list actors INCLUDING Sherilyn Fenn, just because fans want to remember them.

reply


Nope. Don't think so.


😎


"Fruitcake anyone?"

reply

If you think any one / ones will be the hero, who do you think it will be? Just old Dale?

I am predicting Bobby, Ed, and Tammy. At least, I think these are ppl Lynch views as morally "pure."

I think ever since that speech from his dad in the original, Bobby's character arc has been set up to be a huge heroic role.

reply


You may be right. On the other hand, do you think Lynch will actually provide us with a "hero"?


😎


"He's dead."

reply

Yes. I mean, some people will act selflessly and not sit there apathetically.

Coop tried to be a hero in the original, but then got people hurt, and left himself open to evil. He was not able to perfect himself by entering the Lodge without fear.

I personally would find it disappointing / boring if it turns out that Coop simply redeems himself and/or overcomes himself and/or stops the evil or whatever. Better to leave Coop as the flawed and failing character, and have someone with an immoral (Bobby) or suffering (Ed) past, or someone presenting youthful hope for the future, for carrying on (Tammy).

reply


We shall see.


😎


"Fruitcake anyone?"

reply

Uncle jerry. Obviously.

reply


No, probably not.



😎

reply

Lmao you don't think so? I would love that.

reply


It would definitely take me by surprise, and knowing Lynch, anything is possible.



😎

reply

Tammy is keen. She understands Blue Rose.

Also, she has poise, lol.

reply

Time to prepare for Tammy and Bobby heroism.
