Twin Peaks: TV Guide News

twin peaks
A surreal cult favorite about the investigation into the murder of a high-school homecoming queen in a Pacific Northwest lumber town. Cocreated by filmmaker David Lynch, who also directed two episodes, the drama was a mysterious and mystical (when it wasn't merely murky) excursion into the dark side of human nature, rife with sex, violence, dream sequences and a gallery of bizarre characters. It was risky and provocative, but not everyone's cup of damn fine coffee and it was gone in a year.

  • What JumpTheShark.com's Erin Is Watching | Today's News: Our Take | 1/23/2008
    As part of TVGuide.com's Strike Survival Guide, we've asked our staff of... staffers to tell you how they are biding their time in these TV-anemic times. Hi, my name is Erin, and I'm a TV addict. (This is where you say, "Hi Erin," as you nervously look around at the other TV addicts.) The WGA strike isn't freaking me out at all, because now I have time to watch all of the shows on DVD that I've been missing for one reason or another. I'm not into reality programming at all, except for American... read more
  • Young Indiana Jones, Old Variety Shows and Twin Freaks...awwww yeah! | Today's News: Our Take | 11/14/2007
    Still feeling grateful folks. I can’t help it, it’s this month. Ya got Thanksgiving coming up, the weather’s finally changing (although this Philly humidity is total bullshizz) and the DVD coffers are filled to the rim with causes for celebration these days.And with this TV writers’ strike shaping up to suck long and big, having a few great DVDs to keep your flat-screen toasty is never a bad thing. Especially if the DVDs themselves are bad-ass weirdness like this week’s... read more

  • I like to think I'm an ... | Matt Roush | 7/20/2007
    Question: I like to think I'm an educated TV viewer. I live for smart shows like The Wire, Lost, Battlestar Galactica and The Shield. Shows that don't spoon-feed you plot but rather force you to pay attention and think. But after the latest episode of John from Cincinnati, I am at a complete loss. This show is either an epic-level disaster or pure genius, and I have no idea which it is. For the first five episodes, I felt like one of the characters in the show — I was annoyed and unhappy, I had... read more

  • Pick of the Week: April 3, 2007 | Today's News: Our Take | 3/28/2007
    The "Pick of the Week" for April 3 is a tough, tough decision. The obvious choice would be Twin Peaks Season 2, but I'm unimpressed with the set. The set has a few interviews that total approximately an hour, as well as the "Log Lady Intros." We waited five years for this? I'm about 95 percent sure we'll see a complete series release in time for the holidays.No, my "Pick of the Week" goes to BCI's She-Ra Princess of Power: Season 1, Volume 2. This six-disc set includes 33 episodes and tons of... read more

    Question: This week marks Buffy the Vampire Slayer's 10-year anniversary. (The show debuted on the WB on March 10, 1997). Looking back at those 10 years, it's difficult to ignore the show's remarkable influence on other shows, on all genres and on the industry itself. Just to name a few: Alias, Smallville, Lost, Heroes, Veronica Mars, Battlestar Galactica, and even shows like Gilmore Girls, Scrubs and Grey's Anatomy. (The creators of those three shows have declared in recent interviews their... read more

  • Without Hope, All Is Lost | Matt Roush | 2/28/2007
    Today’s TV sermon, inspired by tonight’s wonderfully entertaining Hurley-centric episode of Lost, is all about hope. About not giving up hope, even when the TV gods seem to be working against our innate optimism that all good things come to those who patiently wait and watch.I have hope for Lost, always have had. The show may never regain the mass audience of its first season, and that was probably inevitable. As the show got denser and the island more cluttered with new characters... read more

  • I have to wholeheartedly ... | Matt Roush | 1/12/2007
    Question: I have to wholeheartedly disagree with Dewey's notion that a show should stand the test of time before being lauded as one of TV's best. For one thing, creators, writers, directors and actors move on from TV projects, so to judge a TV show in its entirety robs the talented people behind the show's success of their glory and exalts the mediocre people responsible for its less successful years. Think of Alias: The first two seasons were brilliant in every way, but once J.J. Abrams left... read more
  • It seems to me that there are ... | Matt Roush | 1/8/2007
    Question: It seems to me that there are more and more shows making it into network prime time within the regular television season that don't make it past six weeks. Are you aware of a plan by any of the Big Four to greenlight projects for shorter seasonal runs, much like HBO and Showtime do? With a shorter schedule, a series would be able to focus on its arc, and increase its effect on the viewer. For most shows, it would decrease the need for "filler." (You must admit that even the... read more
  • NBC's Surrender, and Other TV Topics | Matt Roush | 10/19/2006
    So NBC is going to abandon the first hour of prime time, according to non-visionary chief Jeff Zucker. No more pricey comedies and dramas to fill the 8 pm/ET hour in the future. I guess the handful of shows, mostly comedies, now airing in that hour will migrate elsewhere at some point, whichever ones actually survive. Sounds like surrender to me. Not to mention fewer scheduling options for a lesser range of programming. Be on the lookout for more cheesy game shows and cheaper reality retreads.... read more
  • Matt Frewer Takes Eureka to the Max | Today's News: Our Take | 8/29/2006
    Within the strange, genius-populated little Northwestern town at the heart of Sci Fi Channel's Eureka (Tuesdays at 9 pm/ET) resides Jim Taggart, the off-center "dogcatcher" who specializes in the critters, creepies and crawlies born of the burg's bizarre scientific experiments. TVGuide.com spoke with Matt Frewer (aka Max Headroom for my fellow children of the '80s) about his stay in Eureka and the series' "aggressive multiplatform media initiative." (He has no idea what I just said.)... read more
  • Eureka Star's Interest Is Twin Peak'd | Today's News: Our Take | 7/18/2006
    Starting tonight at 9 pm/ET, Sci Fi Channel's Eureka ventures into the same Pacific Northwest that played home to Twin Peaks as it tells the tale of a tiny town harboring a big secret: namely, a population of geniuses, many of whom toil for a top-secret government think tank. Playing U.S. Marshal Jack Carter, through whom viewers experience this strange (and soon about to become stranger) world, is Colin Ferguson, whose alter ego has little idea that this quick pass through town, with a... read more
  • I am amazed at the new ... | Matt Roush | 5/15/2006
    Question: I am amazed at the new Lost-related websites springing up. The Oceanic site last year was cool, and then the Hanso site, but now there is a site for the Valenzetti Foundation, which is somehow related to the new book Bad Twin and the site for Windmore Laboratories, the makers of the Dharma food and Sun's pregnancy test. Oh, and let's not forget the new Hanso phone number (which, I admit, I did call). How involved are Lost's creators in the info going up on these sites, and is it... read more
  • Insider Buzz on Fall's New Shows | Today's News: Our Take | 4/20/2006
    Television's new fall lineups won't be unveiled until May, but Hollywood is already making predictions about which pilots will become full-fledged shows. Here are some projects that are generating heat. Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip NBC has penciled in this drama from West Wing creator Aaron Sorkin about the backstage doings of a famous sketch-comedy show à la Saturday Night Live. Sorkin's mighty pen, and a cast that read more

    Former Twin Peaks G-man Kyle MacLachlan — most recently the star of ABC's now-adjourned legal drama In Justice — is joining the cast of Desperate Housewives on April 16 for a multiepisode arc. "He’s a lovelorn, single dentist who is trying to make a connection with Susan," says executive producer Tom Spezialy. "She’s already entangled with her ex-husband and Mike, so he’s very much the fourth wheel in this situation." MacLachlan will appear in a handful of episodes and it’s possible he... read more
