Watching Bob kill Maddie Ferguson was the most horrifying thing ever broadcast on network tv TO THIS DAY and my Mom and I were literally cowering in the corner of her bed as we watched it. I slept with her for a week. It might have been two weeks, and it wasn’t just because I was so totally freaked out, it was also because SHE was so totally freaked out.
Hubby and I watched Twin Peaks last year. He’d never seen it. He refused to believe me that it was actually a real show on real tv. After each episode he’d say “Nope. That was NOT on ABC. You’re lying.”
I had a hard time watching that scene a second time, even as an adult.
I DID NOT NEED TO SEE ANOTHER PICTURE OF BOB EVER! Bob is the scariest thing to have EVER been burned into my eyeballs EVER. Even in freakin’ production stills, Bob is scary.
(shudder)
There is just not enough BOB in all our lives anymore.
My mom just emailed this photo to me.
Subject: BOB
Body: Thought you’d like this!
How quickly we forget that 8th grade Sarah made her mother stand next to her in the bathroom while brushing her teeth at night because she couldn’t be alone after a BOB episode.
WTF Mom.
Hahaha on the husband not believing TP was actually a real show on ABC. So true. Still baffling that some executives around a table went “yep, this is greenlit, good stuff here, people will not have nightmares for a decade.”
PS- I’ve got good news. That gum you like is going to come back in style.
PPS- Ok, I’ve completely freaked myself out and am going to get a pedicure. I can no longer be alone in my house.
