In the last moments of 2024, I’m looking back at favorite Twin Peaks Blog stories you may have missed this year. From conversations with Twin Peaks stars to film locations that no longer exist to a new page cataloging props and set decorating, this year was the most successful one since launching the blog in…
In 1993, I fell in in love with David Lynch and Mark Frost’s “wonderful and strange” show by watching reruns of Twin Peaks on Bravo TV. But that Bravo TV was the cable channel found in the United States. Two years later in April 1995, a different Bravo TV began airing reruns of the show…
In this day of streaming services and 4K Ultra HD discs, it’s wild to think Twin Peaks first aired when those things were only futuristic daydreams. In 1990-1991, the only way people could watch David Lynch and Mark Frost’s “wonderful and strange” show on a different day or time than it was broadcast was to record…
Like many Twin Peaks fans, I was saddened to hear of Piper Laurie’s passing at age 91 on October 14, 2023. Her Emmy-nominated performance as Catherine Martell in the show’s first two seasons was exceptional (her exchange with Sheriff Truman about her time on Pearl Lakes is my favorite scene). Originally named Rosetta Jacobs until the…
What a year! As the last seconds of this unprecedented and surreal year tick away, I’m reflecting on the highlights for TwinPeaksBlog.com in 2020. This year marked the 30th Anniversary of David Lynch and Mark Frost’s masterpiece, and despite the challenges we all faced, there were damn fine moments that kept me connected with fellow…
It’s an exciting day at TwinPeaksBlog.com as another Bookhouse Boy is joining our writing staff. I met Jason McMahan virtually through our shared interest in identifying props used in David Lynch and Mark Frost’s wonderful and strange show. Considering we’re both long-time fans of Twin Peaks, I was delighted to hear of his interest in…
One aspect of Twin Peaks that I’ve greatly enjoyed over the years of being a fan is how well mystery is mixed with some comedic relief. A true joy was seeing David Lander, famously known for playing Squiggy on Laverne & Shirley, return to the ABC Television network in Season 2 of David Lynch and…
In the folksy town of Deer Meadow, Wash., FBI Agent Desmond (Chris Isaak) inexplicably disappears while hunting for the man who murdered a teen girl. The killer is never apprehended, and, after experiencing dark visions and supernatural encounters, Agent Dale Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan) chillingly predicts that the culprit will claim another life. Meanwhile, in the…
By now, you should know of my intense obsession with David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. This 1992 theatrical follow-up to the 1990-91 series has become my all-time favorite Lynch film. If I had a nickel for every time I’ve seen it, I’d be dead. Recently, I was delighted to discover HBOMax has the…
While researching a different article tonight, I discovered that Arnie Stenseth passed away on Feb. 7, 2020 following a short illness. He was 82. You may recall Mr. Stenseth played Sven Jorgensen, the lead Norwegian businessman, in the Twin Peaks Pilot. This Love Letter pays tribute to his brief-but-memorable scene from David Lynch and Mark…
