Current TV Boxset Addiction

I disagree with you on all counts there. Principally because if a first time viewer were to leave off at season 1 episode 13, it really doesn't offer a satisfying ending.

Depends how much you value closure over consistency.  Not much point in having a definite ending if it's an ending to a different show.

I'm still waiting for Twin Peaks to be properly finished off.

Wasn't there a rumour recently that Twin Peaks is returning?

[smilersaltash]

I heard that rumour too, but don't know if it was anything more than that.

I am going to borrow Game of Thrones Season 1 tomorrow as my interest has been piqued. General concensus in work was that it is like a soft porn film, so thought I would take the plunge.

You missed it - the Red Room appeared in and was a major plot element in the final story arc of Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated.  There was an entire episode set within it, but the short version of the story is that the events of the Mystery Incorporated series are wiped from time itself and become a prequel to the original 1960s Scooby Doo series, every other Scooby Doo continuity, other Hanna Barbera cartoon shows such as Blue Falcon and Moby Dick, and Twin Peaks.

According to Jennifer Lynch and Mark Frost it was never a 'thing'.


Story-wise, next year will mark the significant '25 years' since Cooper first entered The Black Lodge.

Yep. I could handle some new Twin Peaks! 

Do you know, I was 12 when I first watched that show and I got REALLY into it. Weird for a kid that age innit?

You know, there are many great show's I've watched. But Twin Peaks isn't one of them. I should probably fix that.

I agree, but I DID watch it. Pretentious bunch of pants then, pretentious bunch of pants now.

We share a birthday Mr Dare and I tend to agree with most of your posts, but that is like a slap in my face!
As for Twin Peaks 3, it'll never happen. Lynch says he ended it the way he did believing he would be given a 3rd run on demand and he would be able to tie everything up and finish it properly. When that didn't happen, he was well pissed. When his Mulholland Drive series fell apart, he swore never to work on a TV show again. When Frost said he would do Twin Peaks series 3, Lynch complained openly about it and put Frost off in doing so. Apparently, he did attend a meeting with TV folk recently to discuss Twin Peaks series 3- only to say they had left it far too long and it won't happen.
In the book Lynch on Lynch, he says [spoiler]an entry was found in Laura's journal about Cooper being in the Black Lodge and they got him out of there; it's just Lynch never filmed it happening[/spoiler].
Don't forget there were rumours years back of an X Files/Twin Peaks crossover (would Duchovny be Mulder or Denise in that?) and Lynch said it was insulting to suggest Mulder and Scully could sort everything that happened there in a small number of episodes. Lynch still gets annoyed when its suggested shows like X Files and Lost were made possible thanks to Twin Peaks. It looks to be something of an illegitimate father to much of the TV that followed.

I watched the Pilot and didn't watch any more, I was expecting more of the weird I've heard about but it just came across as an extended soap-drama movie. Maybe it takes a few episodes for the good stuff to kick in but the pilot was enough. Generally if you don't hook me with the pilot you've lost me.

Dude, my favourite films of all time are Videodrome, Forbidden Zone, The Big Lebowski, and Zardoz. I live off pretention.

They remade this several years later and renamed it Raper, only someone made a typo.  Then they took out the rapes, so in the end it worked out okay.

Brian Glover is always watchable, though, and apparantly a top bloke in real life.

I think you mean 'John', Pro. I've never seen such slack wok in my life, Casper.
