Yeah I assumed so. I watched 1&2 back in the day and have probably forgotten most of what went on.

Plus "Fire Walk With Me", which was its own kind of mess. There are also 90 minutes of deleted scenes from that movie in the collectors box.
Dream logic... that actually makes more sense than you'd think. Might be the best way to describe his creative process.
FWIW, I'm a Twin Peaks fan, and I totally didn't see the reference until I read it here. I thought it was just more koala wackiness. I tend to compartmentalize a bit, so outside references sometimes go right over my head.
But I did appreciate the Paramount mountain in the background. Will Boimler someday realize that he's a fictional character?
(Everyone here has read Redshirts, right?)

I think this is a film that's been somewhat reappraised in recent years. Certainly I wasn't a fan but I've only seen it once and that was in the 20th Century. Certainly I know a lot of horror/Lynch aficionados who initially were cool on it yet rave about it now.
No.
It's brilliant.
I’ve been meaning to read Redshirts but have never gotten around to it. Maybe some day.
I first saw Twin Peaks for real a few years ago. Back when it was first on, I tried to watch the finale (I was 13 or so?) and had no idea what was happening.
I remembered the The Simpsons clip and there's an episode of Darkwing Duck called "Twin Beaks" which is full of weirdness, like a talking log, which is also something that references something in the show.
Anyway, when it was revealed who BOB was, I did think of Redjac from "Wolf in the Fold".

Is that what Captain Robau said when he went inside a burning building?
If this show is supposed to be cannon, and excepted as existing in the same universe as other Star trek shows, then how can the Nomad probe possibly be sitting in that room when it exploded roughly 200 years earlier? !!!View attachment 36427
What the **** is Nomad doing in the Anomaly Storage Room??!!!
I'm pretty sure that eye visor wouldn't have shielded the wearer from Medusan-induced madness.
How did the Cerritos end up with all this stuff? Good fanfic potential there.
That is what makes it an anomaly, and why it is in the Anomaly Storage Room.
If there is a collectible replica anywhere in the universe it would be on the Cerritos.
An a more serious note (well... MORE serious) Nomad came out of nowhere, nearly destroyed a Federation Starship easily, and was able to bring people back from the dead. Of COURSE some lunatic would try to build another one.
It's Mirror-Nomad! And it felt such tremendous guilt at hiding while all the Malurians were being exterminated by the Empire that it shut itself down. You see, Nomad is nice in the Mirror Universe.
It exists as an elevated retelling of in universe events.
Also, Boimler loves collectibles.
But there is still a goatee painted on it somewhere.
Which just happened to be fused with another Tan Ru? Unlikely.
I DNF'ed it about 2/3 of the way through.
Eventually, the "real world" story became as or more contrived than the supposed "bad" science fiction of the early chapters, and my patience was shot. Supposedly the last few chapters are just Scalzi breaking the fourth wall to lecture on what he thinks makes for good or bad sci-fi, and no thank you.
