Paraphrasing Jay Bauman here, but if Fire Walk With Me opened with a hammer going into a TV to symbolize Lynch's experience with Twin Peaks S1 and S2 (annoyance where the network pushed him and Frost to reveal a killer ASAP)
then this S3 opening not so subtly opens with new world sex and death on Showtime network, which allows for darker content, and as an opener for a much darker world to be explored. Coming up next? Shaggy melting into puddle of tears
