Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

Aubrey Hackett While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

gordonthegorilla Season one is truly legendary. An engaging mix of mystery, unique characters & odd situations. Badalamenti's music is amazing. Serial television at it's finest. Season two starts off reasonably well, buts slumps into nonsense & lame melodrama after six or seven episodes. Season three is straight up awful. Totally different feel to the previous seasons. So much pointless filler. Torturously slow. The appearance of many original characters is more of a weak novelty than a clever integration. Just stick to season one & the first third of season two. Everything else sucks.

Rick Black When it comes to television there are many shows you can call classic. There is also shows you can call influential. Most of all there is very few shows you can call groundbreaking. "Twin Peaks" happens to be all that however its also a show that went off the rails fast. Season 1 every episode was great. There was something in every episode that was jaw dropping. Season 1 was also "Not as popular" as you think it was. The first episode was. That was the 2 hour feature length pilot. It aired on Sunday Night. The next 6 episodes aired on Thursday's at 9.It was a tough time slot. It aired opposite "Cheers". The first weeks episode was highly rated. However the next 5 weeks the show kept losing viewers. Things looked "Murky" for another Season. The last episode was moved to the 10:00 pm time slot on Wednesday! Mark Frost had to push ABC into letting him know about another season. He didn't want a cliffhanger. He was going to solve the mystery if it wasn't renewed! He was editing the final episode up to the last minute. The show was only picked up for another season because FOX (and possibly a cable channel) was interested in picking up the show. The final episode of season 1 did win its only Wednesday Night time slot. Things were looking great for the shows 2nd year. Because it won its Wednesday Night Time Slot everyone was shocked that ABC schedule the show for Saturday Night at 9:00 for the 2nd Season. Everyone thought it would play on Wednesday at 10:00. However what people seem to forget that episode still had 50% less viewers than the pilot episode. Thus the problems for season 2. When Season 2 aired each episode kept losing viewers. ABC forced the creators of the show to "Solve" the mystery of "Who Killed Laura Palmer". The show fell apart after that. The next 6 episodes were a mess! There was no longer a mystery. When the show found its footing again it was too late. A last ditch effort to save the show. ABC re-scheduled the show back to Thursdays at 9:00. However not only did "Twin Peaks" have compete with "Cheers" there was a new show on FOX that was getting the young crowd. That show was "Beverly Hills 90210". "Twin Peaks" ended up being the lowest rated show ever (up to that time) in that time slot. ABC canceled the show. The final 2 episodes aired as a movie on Monday Night after the television season was over.The show was great in Season 2 until they solved the mystery. After that it was just another soap and not a very good one at that. The final episode (Directed by David Lynch) was great. However it did end on a cliffhanger. That cliffhanger was left unsolved until 2017. In all if you have never seen the show you should. Watch the television shows then "Fire Walk With Me". I loved "Fire Walk With ME". To me that was much better than any of the season 2 episodes!Don't get me wrong season 2 is still good television. Its far better than the shows that ABC puts on today. Its just that the 2nd season had to compete with the 1st season. Even 26 years later Season 3 of "Twin Peaks" is still competing with season 1

MartinHafer "Twin Peaks" is not a show for everybody. This isn't really a criticism...more an indication that the style of the program and the plot is something that the average viewer won't like or appreciate...but many others will. This is because the show is ultra-bizarre and often surreal--with strange dreams, visions, plots that go off the deep end with oddness and more. Believe me...it's among the strangest TV shows ever made...like the later episodes of "The Prisoner"...but weirder. What did I like about it? Well, the show's music was amazingly evocative and cool...really cool. The direction was often exquisite...well crafted and distinctive. I really appreciated it from the onset. Acting was generally good, though the show had a million and one subplots apart from the murder of Laura Palmer...and a few of the characters and their stories were both unnecessary and boring (such as Bobby Briggs). All in all, a highly uneven show (later ones got a bit too weird at times) but one of the most creative ever made. Worth seeing if you have a high threshold for the ultra-odd.

Hollywoodwhore99 The first episode of "Twin Peaks" is a classic. It was one of the best films ever made in the 1990's regardless of the medium. It was something you could not take your eyes off of.Much has been made about the fact David Lynch never wanted to solve the murder of Laura Palmer. When the mystery went on & on viewers got mad and then tuned out. I stuck with the show until the end. I must say as a viewer "The public was sold on a mystery of Laura Palmer" and it was the biggest mystery since "Who Shot J.r.". As viewers We invested our time into the show. As season one winded down the mystery was not solved. 4 Months later with the season 2 premiere it still wasn't solved and that was the final straw for most people. (It also didn't help that ABC put the show on Saturdays). By the time the show solved the mystery (ABC FORCED David LYNCH TO DO SO) the show had already run out of gas. In May of 1990 on Donahue Mark Frost promised viewers that "When the death is solved it may open up Pandora's Box of other strange things). Well that didn't happen. The show had no master plan. It became a weekly exercise of weirdness after the mystery was solved. I still however enjoyed the show but I think after the murder was solved the show should of ended the season then. It would of gave them time to come up with another story-line. Instead the show kept going but had no focus until the last few episodes. It is still a show worth watching. I can't wait for the new show.
