   I would have much preferred LFB over Moira.  You comment that she
seemed "more of a bitch", but that really only happened later in the
series -- she actually physically looked different in the latter part
of the series, bitchy and smoking, while in the pilot she looked
much more sweet and innocent than Moira.
 
   Moira and Sheryl seemed so...bland looking for Lynch women, 
compared with the trilogy of Boyle, Fenn and Amick that started
out the series.  The TV women had personalities, Moira and Sheryl
seemed to be caricatures of "good girl", "bad girl".

   The thing is, so much of this was taken care of by reading the
Secret Diary, which covers so much of the what the movie was -- the
movie didn't shock or surprise me one bit because of the fact I 
had read almost the entire thing two years previously.  
 
   Anyway, the TV show wasn't about Laura.  It was about Coop and BOB.
I think I may actually had enjoyed FWWM if I _hadn't_ known anything
about Twin Peaks or the Secret Diary, though...
