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…
I loved seeing the legendary Don Murray play Bushnell Mullins, Dougie Jones’ boss at Lucky 7 Insurance, in Season 3 of Twin Peaks. Thanks to a giant framed poster behind Mullins’ desk at Lucky 7, we get some insight into his character. Now that some time has passed since Season 3 ended (and those Non-Disclosure Agreements…
In a year that has been filled with immeasurable loss, it is with heavy heart that I pen this Love Letter to Clark Middleton. He played Charlie in Twin Peaks Season 3 on Showtime and passed on Sunday, October 4 at age 63 after contracting West Nile Virus. Appearing in four episodes, Clark’s character Charlie left a…

During my recent search for the Twin Peaks film location of the Glass Box Experiment from Season 3 on Showtime, I stumbled upon the location of The Farm from Part 13. Interestingly, both location are in downtown Los Angeles, California. So let’s return to “starting positions” and explore this location supposedly set in Western Montana.
During my seemingly neverending quest to document all the Twin Peaks film locations, I love highlighting establishing shots like the Western Montana scenes from Part 13 in Season 3 on Showtime. While these scenes serves as great transitional shots for the series, they also have an interesting story as to how I found them.
One of the treats for me from Twin Peaks Season 3 was seeing Nadine Hurley’s shop, Run Silent, Run Drapes. This was such a payoff from Season 1 when she tried to create “completely silent” drape runners using “COTTON BALLS!” The location used for her shop is found in the heart of North Bend, Washington and…
