I'll touch this up once I'm done slogging through the final episodes.

That is SO heavy on the INFP/INFJ-side. You're talking about the actors, right?
If this is correct, it's almost sensational with so many INFs in one place - must have been great working on the set

Btw - I don't feel I know the people well enough to have much of an opinion

 

[Thalassa]

Yeah, I thought it was a bit too INFx heavy, to say the very least. Major Briggs is ISTJ, Bobby Briggs is ESFx, Laura Palmer is ENFP, and Donna Hayward is probably ISFJ, and Shelley Johnson is probably ISFP, and Leo Johnson an ESTP or ISTP.

I think Special Agent Dale Cooper is INTJ (possibly INFJ) and the Log Lady is INFP.

 

[sleuthiness]

Well yeah, the thread title is "Twin Peaks cast". Character names are in parentheses.

Keep it up Marm!

I think the guy who plays Truman could possibly be istp, maybe even a 9, if only because his sp preference gets in the way and we tend to overassociate sp-doms with e9 (rightly so?). But it wouldn't be consistent with the rest of the cast's types.

The enfj actors' ewings are among the most likely to change. Can't quite pin that down just yet.

 

[Arclight]

This is mathematically impossible.

 

[sleuthiness]

This is mathematically impossible.

So have you settled on your type for good?

Oh yeah, and no, not with an audition process that tons of people apply through.

 

[Arclight]

So have you settled on your type for good?

Well the test my counselor administered to me said so. Maybe next week I will try on ENFP

I just checked to make sure the laws of the universe haven't changed since I have been responding to you... No, the numbers still don't make sense. How could so many INFs and NFJs be present in one place? I don't think there is that many INFPs in all of Hollywood.

 

[sleuthiness]

You think you could've played Audrey, Marm?

 

[Thalassa]

You think you could've played Audrey, Marm?

Yes, funny that you say that, she was my favorite character when the show originally came out.

Over time, though, I decided Agent Cooper was the best character on the show.

Either via my bias, limited actor availability, or the creators selectively chose individuals who were capable of conveying their ideas to the full, expression-wise. Maybe Mark Frost isn't infj. Haven't found any interviews of him yet.

 

[sleuthiness]

That Ashbrook guy reminds me of Willem Dafoe (presumably an e8 estj), which still crosses my mind every other episode.

 

[syndatha]

So - we're typing the actors, based on their performance in a role?
*Utterly confused*

 

[Viridian]

That seems like an awful lot of 5w4 actors... Your typing of Lynch seems spot on, though, from what I've heard of him.

On an unrelated note, am I the only one who thinks Lynch's hair looks awesome? The guy looks like something straight out of an anime!

 

[chickpea]

it's kinda hard for me to believe that not a single actor on the show was a sensor and that 90% are inf's. i know it's david lynch but still come on.

 

[sleuthiness]

Then make corrections! You're all pros, right?

French dude who's the older brother of the fatty shot dead must be sp/so e56 intp.

Actor who plays the lady who runs the whorehouse sx/sp e54 intj?

Dude who plays Truman could also be sp/so e54 intp, rather than infp.

So - we're typing the actors, based on their performance in a role?
*Utterly confused*

At least now we're all aware that you like emoticons, but what's your point?

 

[sleuthiness]

Currently also considering e43 for Amick, maybe even isfp, but I doubt it.\

Ashbrook may also be sx/sp.

But yeah, how is it a shocker for a show constructed around typical e54 fixations to have a predominantly 54 cast?

 

[Thalassa]

Yes, I strongly agree David Lynch is INFJ.

 

[Viridian]

I'm kinda curious, though... are you basing your typings (boy, they seem crazily thorough... ) on interviews with the cast or on their performances?

 

[syndatha]

At least now we're all aware that you like emoticons, but what's your point?

The point was that I don't think you can type the actors based on their character in the series. Otherwise, what's your point being a total bitch?

Yeah - that ---^
