Twin Peaks

Anyone else as happy as I am right now? 9 new episodes written by Lynch/Frost and directed by Lynch in 2016.

I thought this topic was going to be about the bar/restaurant.

I loved the original series, as weird as it was. I'm excited at new episodes, but also wary, since it's been so long.

I am very disappointed that it was not.

I'm a bit too young to have seen/remember the original series, but I have friends that are going to be super excited about this news.

Twin Peaks is a series/show I have always had plans to see, but never have... I think I am going to make an effort to check it out.

 

I have also never seen Northern Exposure, but have a buddy who quotes that show all the time. That is another one I'd like to see.

Twin Peaks is currently available on Netflix. At least it was a while back.

Twin Peaks was my favorite show back in the day, but I was never really able to figure out the series finale. I ran across a book about David Lynch in Barnes and Noble and read it to try and get some insight into his insanity. Now I probably understand more than I really want to.

Lynch is heavily into transcendental meditation, fwiw. Twin Peaks fell off the rails in the second season, as solving the mystery of Laura Palmer basically took all the steam out of the series, but at its best it was absolutely groundbreaking. I'm hoping with one story that they can remain focused throughout.

 

I like Inland Empire and Mulholland Dr., but I'd rather the David Lynch that tells a straightforward story, with touches of weirdness.

I have a connection to "the Straight Story". I grew up about 20 miles west of Prairie Du Chien and can recall seeing the lawnmower on highway 18 with the trailer and wondering what the story was on the driver. Years later there was a casting call for extras in Clermont when Lynch was filming the movie based on the story. I guess Lynch thought the bridge at Lansing was more scenic for the film, as opposed to the one between Marquette and Prairie Du Chien.
