This past week, I woke up from a dream with the idea for this article (no rock throwing was involved). Since David Lynch and Mark Frost’s Twin Peaks first aired on the ABC Television Network in April 1990, there have been many variations on the series logo. Granted, some of these variations are based on graphic…
From One-Eyed Jacks to Windom Earle’s doctored cards, playing cards have played an important role in Twin Peaks since the very beginning. It was no surprise to find them in the most recent season on Showtime. While researching the film location for the cheap motel in Buckhorn, I identified the card Mr. C shows Darya and soon…
While researching a recent article related to the conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn, I identified another book used in Twin Peaks. This one briefly appears twice in Episode 2020 inside Windom Earle’s cabin.
After all these years of being a Twin Peaks fan, there are certain images stick out in my mind. In particular, I remember many scenes with James Marshall as Laura Palmer’s secret boyfriend, James Hurley. While some have joked about his role, he really does give an emotionally-charged and powerful performance in all three seasons plus Twin…
Kicking of the New Year with a return to the Kiana Lodge in Poulsbo, Washington. This location served as the film location of both the Packard family’s Blue Pine Lodge and The Great Northern Hotel as seen in the Twin Peaks Pilot. Today, I’m focusing on the kitchen which is seen briefly toward the beginning of the…

Russ Tamblyn who played Dr. Lawrence Jacoby and his alter-ego Dr. Amp in Twin Peaks celebrates his birthday on December 30. To celebrate another year of having his wonderful soul on Earth, I’m reflecting on my first meeting with him at 1996 Twin Peaks Fan Festival in Snoqualmie Valley, Washington.
In honor of Harry Goaz’s birthday on December 27, I’m examining Deputy Andy Brennan’s outfits from Season 1 of David Lynch and Mark Frost’s Twin Peaks. This Costuming Peaks article covers the Pilot Episode through Episode 1007.
One of the first articles I wrote for TwinPeaksBlog.com traced the route Agent Cooper drives when entering the town of Twin Peaks. I clearly have an affinity for identifying these driving scenes seen throughout all three seasons of my favorite show. This time, I’m examining the route Mr. C drives during Twin Peaks – Part 3…
I feel like I’ve been waiting my entire life to write this article. Today, the planets Jupiter and Saturn will be conjunct in the night sky. Long time Twin Peaks fans have been mimicking Windom Earle signing about this conjunction since Episode 2020 (#27) first aired on April 18, 1991. It is by far one of…
