Dear Facebook Friends, Showtime did not pull the plug on Twin Peaks. After 1 year and 4 months of negotiations, I left because not enough money was offered to do the script the way I felt it needed to be done. This weekend I started to call actors to let them know I would not be directing. Twin Peaks may still be very much alive at Showtime. I love the world of Twin Peaks and wish things could have worked out differently.

The cast list for the new Twin Peaks show includes Eddie Vedder, Laura Dern, David Duchovny, and Trent Reznor (and wife)... Interesting!

This just sounds to be a hipster thing.

Laura Dern stars in multiple David Lynch films, including beside Kyle MachLachlan (Dale Cooper) in Blue Velvet. David Duchovny played a recurring character in the original Twin Peaks, which is how he ended up playing Mulder.

David Lynch and Trent Reznor have a long history of working together, including Lynch doing videos for Reznor and Reznor producing the Lost Highway soundtrack.

Eddie Vedder? What's hip about a washed up rock star? The cast list for this series is gigantic, and may break the TV record for number of named characters. That he somehow snagged a bit part isn't very interesting or exciting imo. He knows Lynch and has done charity stuff for Lynch's meditation foundation.

Yeah, Jasper has been missing from ANR for a very long time, I hope all is well with him.

Jasper, if you're lurking, just give us a sign that you're still alive. :wave:

Has anyone seen the new season yet? Is it any good? I read somewhere that it is slow going but is worth the buildup. I may try to watch some episodes this weekend.

Get Netflix, dude! It took me like 5 or more years to get on board, but it was worth it. Or download the kodi app that Art recommended some time ago...

For us in Mexico, it is on Netflix :nod:
They used to air the episodes the next day (Monday).

So, I've been watching the new Twin Peaks and I'm really digging it.

It started a bit slow and weird in the beginning, and then it got even slower and even weirder.

It has the same dark, moody atmosphere the original series had. They really try to tie the original series with the new one, without wanting to make a copy. Different storylines etc ....

And just when I thought I was able to understand/follow the story I just watched this totally weird episode yesterday (episode 8), which was like some weird out of space acid trip that ended with some crushed skulls.

I also like the fact that they don't fell into the action/shooting trap (well ok, it is David Lynch), and you know, all these series where everything is moving very fast. It maybe is a bit artsy .... But anyway, the third season is not shitting on the legacy imo.
