[QUOTE="mtwentz, post: 480, member: 27"] First of all, I don't normally like to criticize actors, but Joan Chen is awful in that scene. To me, her trying to simulate dying from a sudden seizure is one of the worst acting performances in the entire show. Ontkean was also awful in that scene, IMO. Secondly, Bob and Little Man appearing just comes out of nowhere. There is no known connection with Josie and Bob/Little Man. Up until that point, those mystical characters had been confined to the Laura Palmer story. So why they suddenly show up for Josie's death made no sense at the time (it was finally explained by Cooper many episodes later). Finally, the cheesy drawer knob special effect was straight out of Nightmare on Elm Street. So 3 problems with the scene, 1) Chen/Ontkean acting leading to Jose dying, 2) Bob and Little Man appearing was out of place and 3) the actual face in the drawer knob, both the special effect itself and what the hell it meant. Basically, that one scene almost killed the show before the season ended. So to this day, I can't warm up to it. In retrospect, Lynch needed to direct that scene for it to have any hope of that scene not being a complete disaster. [/QUOTE]
