[edit] Tremors

The article mentions an episode called "Tremors". No such episode exists.

  • I threw in some episode references and the film. All the info listed in the text can be found in one of these. As to whcih info goes with which 'sode, I don't know how to do in-line footnote citation here, and I really question whether it's necessary. thoughts? - geoffr111 11 February 2007.
  • After reading the Wikipedia:Spoiler I added a "Spoiler Warning" to the page because it reveals major plot events that were used to create suspense. In particular it reveals "who killed Laura Palmer," which was the primary cliffhanger of the series. ~ User:jimmuhk - Wed May 30 15:52:37 UTC 2007

[edit] "Bob"

The 1990s Twin Peaks Observer zine asked if Bob was "Bob". The answer is no, but I have seen that posited elsewhere. 149.10.145.75 17:37, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

There is also a lot of discussion as to whether Bob is Bob, Bob, or Bob, although the answer to all of these is definitely probably no. Does anyone have a source? 72.68.43.70 04:45, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
Sourced or no, associating BOB with Bob Dole, Bob Vila, or Bob McGrath is just plain silly. Encyclopedia articles are not improved by adding pointless exercises in apophenia. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 12:55, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
The article states, as a fact, that Mike and BOB were once human, and that this human Mike cut off his arm. This is speculation. At the time of the Laura Palmer investigation, Mike did inhabit a human host with one arm. This man, Philip Gerard, was, at the most, in his early 50s. So, how could this be the same human who committed rapes and murders with KILLER BOB when BOB was already an inhabiting spirit when Laura's father Leeland Palmer, a man then in his 40s, was a child? The Spirit Mike did cut off his arm, but this might well refer to something altogether spiritual, as his arm is the Black Lodge spirit, the Little Man From Another Place. Perhaps someone more versed in Wikipedia policies and editing can correct and cite this, but Twinpeaks.org quotes Mark Frost (the co-creator of Twin Peaks) as having said that BOB is a Native American spirit who has existed since ancient times.
