Am I the only one who believes that the lack of humor during the
TP segment of the film worked. I thought that since the theme
was more or less "Laura Palmer's decent into hell" that humor did
not fit. I think that the intense darkness, the somberness of that
portion of the flick was most fitting. I think if we did see bits
of Andy/Lucy, Pete, etc. it would have taken away with the nightmarish
narture of the film. I was drawn in by the intense nightmarishness of
the whole thing. It was non-stop, heavy, and I felt that I was 
experiencing all the hell that Laura went through. If there had been
the cutesy stuff I feel that it would have broken the spell. I
for one was captivated by the horror. And there still was elements
of humor, the whole first part was damn funny, and really work to
get me off guard for the TP section of the movie, and thus, at least
for me made the TP part even more intense.
