How is this different from a soap opera?
>>
>>220657989
Its not made for women, therefor it has effort and soul
>>
>>220657989
It's meta.
>>
>>220658013
Women love the show.
>>

It was a tasteful series form a better time. A mysterious antagonist would never beg to consume feces or indulge in fellatio.
>>
>>220657989
it's for intelligent people like me
>>
>>220657989
it's a show made with care and attention
>>
>>220657989
It's a soap opera with surrealism. It's okay.
>>
>>220658069
Yes and it isnt made for them. Soap operas are made for female audiences. Twin Peaks was not made FOR women

Women love MJ, they also love Back Street Boys. See the difference?

Then why is all the focus on everyone cheating on everyone and getting into relationships?
>>
>>220657989
it has david lynch's name attached to it and he throws shit at a wall every other episode. really excites women and teenage boys.

It doesn't have any of the stylistic characteristics of a soap opera because it doesn't have the format of a soap opera. Soaps air like 200+ episides a year and the style is because of that. The circular conversations that go on multiple episodes is because storylines go for a week with a big reveal or cliffhanger at the end of the week and there'll be 3 or 4 storylines per week. Also soaps tend toward hour two hour time slots very rarely 30 minute time slots
Stop calling regular 20 episode season shit "soap operas", they aren't
>>220658013
Its made for anyone who might be susceptible to advertising because that's all it is
>>
>>220658084
There's nothing "tasteful" about that evil garbage
Kill yourself

It is not a show, it is an advertisement
Kill yourself

1) It's self aware.
2) It ridicules soap operas
3) It's filled with extremely dark subtext
4) It's actually really really good.
5) The characters are all deranged in a subtle (and some not so subtle) way.
etc
