A new teaser for Showtime’s upcoming revival of the 90’s murder mystery TV series “Twin Peaks” has been released and it’s all kinds of perfect. Showing nothing more than co-creator David Lynch as FBI Deputy Director Gordon Cole eating a donut, it features a slightly revised version of the theme song to the series. I couldn’t imagine the revival moving forward without Cole, so it’s heartwarming to see him realized.
Widely considered one of the most groundbreaking and influential broadcast series of all time, “Twin Peaks” followed the inhabitants of a quaint northwestern town who were stunned after their homecoming queen Laura Palmer was shockingly murdered. The town’s sheriff welcomed the help of FBI agent Dale Cooper, who came to town to investigate the case. As Cooper conducted his search for Laura’s killer, the town’s secrets were gradually exposed. The mystery that ensued set off an eerie chain of events that plunged the inhabitants of Twin Peaks into a darker examination of their very existence. Twenty-five years later, the story continues…
The cast for the revival is , totaling nearly 200 people. It includes multiple people reprising their roles, such as Kyle MacLachlan, Mädchen Amick, Dana Ashbrook, Everett McGill, and more, as well as tons of newcomers. It has quickly become my most anticipated event of 2017, passing Alien: Covenant and Blade Runner 2049, both of which have me drooling, if that gives you any idea.
