Twin Peaks Return Ending

[John Bailey]

It would make a magnificent 18-hour binge, or even two 9-hour days.
There are a few plot threads that arc across the whole thing but

really is close to a Pynchon novel in terms of narrative complexity,
and I don't necessarily mean one of the shorter novels.
