A cluster of buildings sit on a nondescript corner of a desert road outside Palmdale, California. Surrounded by Joshua Trees and nestled in the shadow of a beige-colored mountain, these seemingly abandoned buildings look like something from a bygone era. Things are not what they seem, however, as the diner, gas station and motel are…
In Twin Peaks – Part 3 on Showtime, hitman Jake (played by Bill Tangradi) tracks Jade’s yellow Jeep as she leaves the Rancho Rosa Estates neighborhood.

I still vividly recall Mr. C’s first appearance in Season 3 on Showtime. Kyle MacLachlan’s appearance in Part 1 at Buella’s Place was frightening, yet left me wanting more.
