i gotta agree with giospurs, i found it maniacal, not goofy in the least. always have. cooper NEVER acted that way before, so how can you gauge the influence of BOB inhabiting him? we're all guilty of this, but sometimes we put ourselves in the interpetation, and one ends up judging a piece of work which one has attached personal baggage. the result being a biased interpetation, because not only are you judging the work, youre judging your inital reation to the work, or other feelings you may be having at the time. im not accusing you personnally of this coolsprings, but i see it happen quite a bit. i think ive said this before, but i cant think of a better way to end the saga of TP the TV series, especially as lynch and frost et al. pretty much knew their time was up. i still remember my parents totally shocked at that last scene, my mom throwing a pillow at the TV, my sister crying because she saw BOB, yet i loved it and i still have the same eerie feeling everytime i see that scene.
