I’ve previously mentioned how much I adore Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me – it’s easily my favorite David Lynch film. You can probably imagine my delight when I finally saw The Missing Pieces in 2014, which contained extended and deleted scenes from this incredibly emotional film. One of those “pieces” was a scene where…
In the first two parts of Twin Peaks on Showtime, we are introduced to the William (Bill) and Phyllis Hastings who live in the town of Buckhorn, South Dakota. These scenes were actually shot at a private residence in southern California. Let’s take a closer look.
I’ve lost count the number of times I’ve watched Twin Peaks. Even being a fan since 1993, I continue finding things I’ve never noticed. This prop identification article is the latest example.

So I was determined…
After an intimate night with Diane/Linda at a nondescript hotel in Twin Peaks Part 18 on Showtime, Richard/Cooper drives to Odessa, Texas in search of a waitress. He spots a coffee shop with an interesting name – Eat at Judy’s – and stops to investigate. In reality, this scene was shot at a restaurant in…
The exploration of the film locations used for the hotel in Buckhorn, South Dakota continues with a look at the FBI Room. Seen in Parts 14, 16, and 17, this location was shot in the same building in Los Angeles as the Blue Rose Task Force meeting scene in Part 12.
