For Your Consideration: Kyle MacLachlan as Dale Cooper

For Your Consideration: Kyle MacLachlan as Dale Cooper in Twin Peaks

[@seanmcmanus9575]

I don't need the Emmy I want that Emmy

[@roystonlodge]

If there's one thing you should know about Kyle MacLauchlan, it's that he doesn't need awards from his industry peers.

[@PogieJoe]

Kyle's ability to pull off the many Coops was one of the most incredible things about the new season. He deserves to win all the awards.

[@eastendthug]

The arm wrestling scene was one of the most intense scenes I've seen on any tv show.

[@HotStrange]

It hurts when it’s down here. Starting position is more comfortable.

[@thepuresh5671]

Even though I think all the actors from the revival did an amazing job Kyle just blew it out of the water! He played FOUR different characters! (Evil Coop, Dougie, normal Coop, Richard)

[@wormswithteeth]

Five...the other Tulpa created by Mike!

[@EpsilonDelta12]

Six if you count the original Dougie tulpa created by Evil Coop

[@Ploobie86]

He also played a hybrid Coop in the last episode. I call it the "Gray World", where he was light and dark. He drank the coffee, but wasn't thrilled about it. He was very violent towards the cowboys, but didn't kill anyone, and then he asked for the address from that waitress while holding a gun, but he didn't point the gun directly at her. And he also quickly got over the fact that there was a dead body in Laura's house. When he and Diane went into that motel, it was a one level motel. In the morning, it turned into a two level motel, as if to say another "layer" was added (which I think is Cooper's dark side joining with his light side).

[@kuestenjung6900]

That's "Richard". But I think you nailed it with the transformation of the motel and what it signifies!

[@vavedern8860]

I honestly think Richard was normal Coop

[@Qwazin]

Cooper drinking coffee and not enjoying it. Heartbreaking.

[@roystonlodge]

That's how you know a Twin Peaks character is evil. ;-)

[@camdenferrell8074]

This is one of the most chilling performances ever seen, no contest.

[@kmsharley75]

The jail scene was badass too,when he looks in the mirror and it flashes back to him and Bob in the lodge. Also the scene where Gordon comes to see him,that chilling thumbs up was both reminiscent and horrific at the same time. Tragic.

[@dontlookatlukeplz]

He should win four* Emmys for the different characters

[@EmiMartinezAdrian]

four

[@sir_john_hammond]

six

[@EmiMartinezAdrian]

?

[@EmiMartinezAdrian]

1-Bad Coop 2-Good Coop 3-Dougie 4-Richard On THIS SEASON!!

[@sir_john_hammond]

1. Original Dougie 2. Our Dougie (Dale's soul) 3. Mr. C 4. Awakened Dale 5. Replacement Dougie at end for Janey E 6. Richard version of Coop with qualities of both Good Coop and Mr. C That's six, and nice try to whoever the hell deleted my last version of this comment.

[@tumaczeniakorepetycje1039]

Big smile just appeared on my face as THIS particular scene is one of my favourite. Not visually stunning, no mind blowing, no wtf. It’s just the superior acting level and the message that stays in your head: do we need this or do we want? What’s more important?

[@CurseTheCosmos]

"The Return" belonged to Kyle. It really did. If they overlook this, his pure talent, then it'll be a goddamn shame. He juggled four characters effortlessly.

[@wailer27]

right it's been 2 years and you need to explain who you think is the 4th character

[@BarryLetts379]

@@wailer27 Richard

[@daniloassis8958]

they don’t care about that, look at Bob Odenkirk in BCS, played 3 characters but lost to that Squid Game actor

[@ProminentCorpse]

@Strummer1980 yeah it's definitely Richard. It takes a great deal of skill to play a subtle yet immediately distinct iteration of a very well established character, especially when you need to effectively convey that change in only a half hour.

[@Theolppoman]

Kyle deserves a damn Oscar for his performance

[@dragulless]

Kyle MacLachlan great actor, great performer! Having interpreted more characters - so different from each other - certainly a great interpretive work, to honor with a EMMY!

[@lucasvieira1805]

David Lynch: ''Just eat that past, yes like this keep doing. Yea yea yea, your mouth is fighting. BEAUTIFUL!''

[@IgorMalyarevsky]

what can I say... this dark man is the main reason why I love this project

[@playeray1]

this video should have included all of his characters

[@Gabsagainstgod]

“as Dale Cooper” ...and Dougie, and Richard, and Good Dale Cooper.

[@MGTOWRising]

I WANT more Twin Peaks.

[@roystonlodge]

I still WANT a Twin Peaks/X-Files crossover. ;-)

[@badcooper235]

Thanks for putting this scene up. It cracks me up

[@santiagoaguilera9718]

Three iconic performances. You get to really hate Evil Coop, cherish Dougie and adore endlessly real Coop.

[@terminalpictures]

What an amazing job. It's a shame the schedule couldn't work for last year, he really deserves it. Time for a rewatch, I should think!

[@udim7284]

For Your Consideration : The Guy who eats spaghetti

[@AmoralTom]

Jack barely touched his three dinners.

[@wailer27]

As the series starved viewers of the proper cooper, I wish they had included a lot more of the evil cooper as it was a fascinating concept and all his scenes were compelling, especially the arm wrestling

[@TonyLehane]

Dougie deserves the Emmy nomination in my opinion. Along with Sheryl Lee.

[@Casinorhgd]

Dougie started well. But he got boring as the season progressed.

[@CrankyRayy]

Him "wanting" over "needing" reminds me back to the original run where cooper says basically the opposite when he's in Audrey's room.

[@BestBFam]

He is one of the greats!

[@watertommyz]

That's Mr. C, not Dale Cooper.

[@julianmx13]

The amount of Rays in this scene, *Ray*

[@NeverSaySandwich1]

Hell yeah baby

[@evakatrinaa]

Do actual Dougie and Dougie Coop count as two separate roles? Because that would make it five..

[@sir_john_hammond]

Dougie: The original fat slob, seen in house and again in lodge Our Dougie: Dale's soul inside him, unawakened Dale as Dale: When he wakes up Re-created Dougie made from Dale's hair: A new and improved version of Dougie the way Janey-E needs him to be (more like Dale) Mr C / Evil Coop: Yrev Very messed up version of Dale Dale, Richard version: Uses the pseudonym Richard, we see that he is still Agent Dale Cooper but has qualities of both himself and Mr. C That's six parts, eached played slightly or extremely different. Lots of nuance. I can't imagine how he could have pulled it off better.

[@evakatrinaa]

Sir John Hammond That's true -- even though all we see of the new Dougie is a smile and a hug, he was different

[@roystonlodge]

YES YES YES!

[@benjaminconnor2411]

Kyle should have 3 Emmy’s , i don’t care if that’s not how it works. Mr.C /doggie /SA cooper , just incredible

[@roystonlodge]

He played a doggie as well?! I totally missed that episode! ;-)

[@mr.c7883]

And now... an Emmy is coming. ...not that I need it.

[@user-cv6rg7wd6n]

If you want something, the want has dependencies on needs. Though I doubt that I’d have said that to him.

[@user-cv6rg7wd6n]

Mr. C isn't too careful with his words is he? 0:06, "I'll need to be on my own", TP season 2 finale: "I need to brush my teeth."

[@NINisTR1]

Now it's dark.

[@CrankyRayy]

i'll fck anythin that mooooooooves

[@VictorNewman201]

Mr C, Mr C.

[@divelostmind]

if the interpretation of cooper being an insert for the audience is true, this scene would basically mean the audience demands things it doesn't "need" out of pure curiosity, likely referring to needing to have the 'mystery' of twin peaks itself solved, and therefore ruining the show.

[@roystonlodge]

That ain't Cooper, though. I'm just saying, is all!

[@CrankyRayy]

ye and also he basically says the complete opposite in the first season

[@PepeMV1971]

Kyle os the brst

[@eddjoey]

Mr. C still gives me the creeps but tbh i prefer Kyle's work as Dougie

[@thommytaranto]

That isn't Cooper

[@PunksterOS]

sraey 52 ni niaga uoy ees ll'I

[@voltaire-325]

Kyle was good in this and deserves an Emmy. However, playing that mindless dolt Dougie for so much of the series was a waste of his talents. Anyone could have played that stupid character.

[@solharv7817]

But that’s the thing, they couldn’t. Actually takes a lot of talent to create such a likeable character with so little to actually do.

[@pinealdreams1064]

It's actually unbelievably difficult to pull that performance off in the manner he did and make it work. Many talented actors would fail.

[@szymonbaranowski8184]

very good but not perfect a bit forced
