Twin Peaks musings/It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia musings

Twin Peaks--the whole premise is about HOW many people that died? One.

One high school student is murdered and the whole town goes apeshit. In the first episode alone, you have the parents of the victim going thru the process of finding out, and it's absolutely heartbreaking. The music is the most beautiful thing imaginable, too--Badalamenti is a genius, and him and Lynch together are a great combination.

The show didn't need a body count. One death is enough, if you treat life on film with the same fragility that comprises it. That shit is real! Now that I have daughters, it just makes me bawl my eyes out even more.
