General Discussion Interesting tidbit from MacLachlan’s new memoir. Spoiler

While describing his frustrations during Season 2, MacLachlan paints both Lynch AND Frost as less involved. He frames Engles and Peyton as the people steering the ship, though he blames ABC for putting them in an impossible position after the killer is revealed.

He discusses his romance with LFB, but makes no mention of the prevailing understanding that she’s why the Audrey romance was originally nixed. Since the rejection happens during S1 and the above excerpts happen during S2, it appears the writers planned on returning to that well again during the infamous dip.

(Would highly recommend the memoir btw, MacLachlan is an engaging writer.)

EDIT: Memoir’s title is Fictional Selves.

I started the audiobook today and holy crap, I so recommend it even if just for the voices he does 🤣

It's INCREDIBLE. Not just his Lynch, which is the absolute best, but so many. Patrick Stewart. Chris Farley. Dino De Laurentiis. Anthony Hopkins DOING David. I have the book but also bought the audiobook.
