Il politico Doug Jones è diventato il primo senatore democratico dell'Alabama eletto negli ultimi venti anni.
I fan della serie I segreti di Twin Peaks hanno quindi festeggiato la notizia condividendo online le gif e i meme di un altro Doug Jones, ovvero il personaggio interpretato dall'attore Kyle MacLachlan nei nuovi episodi dello show.
Le battute erano ispirate alla famosa sequenza in cui Doug vince alle slot machine e si è poi sottolineato come la storia mostrasse una brava persona che riusciva a sconfiggere un demone le cui vittime erano delle teenager.

In retrospect it was all over when Dougie Jones saw the red curtains from the Black Lodge over the voting booth

I know Twin Peaks '17 was weird & not wildly popular but it's IMPORTANT that the whole story was about a nice guy named Dougie Jones who defeated a demon who raped teenagers.
