I can see the scene now: large bowl of popcorn by your side, pants with the elastic waistband on, large glass of wine in hand, cat sitting on a chair, clown staring in the window. Okay, definitely not the last part (LOL) but you’re getting ready to select a new show to watch on Netflix, Hulu, or what have you. In this instance Netflix because that’s what I watch because I can only dupe my parents into paying for one streaming service. Anyway, this is my way of saying, watch Twin Peaks if you’re looking for a new show.
Damn, I had a good time writing that intro, but seriously, Twin Peaks is about to rock you. It’s a David Lynch directed, 3-week binge-worthy, murder mystery, messed up, sexy, twisting, 1990’s thriller extravaganza you’ve got to prepare yourself for. That said this show is not normal. You really have to read into it.
There seriously is weird stuff that happens, alter egos, midgets, giants, Little Nicky, guns, violence, endless cups of coffee, and a strip club about to be sold to a group of investors from Iceland. If you can get past some of the more obscure events, it’ll be a great cinematic experience, I promise.
The characters can often look like a different species considering it was made in the 1990’s and everything looked weird then. Also, the main character, Cooper, played by Kyle MacLachlan, is unreasonably attractive and his young suitor Audrey played by Sherilyn Fenn.
The show is extremely well thought out and there are virtually no plot holes because everything is tied in so well. The episodes definitely leave you hanging but in the best way. You have to keep watching it, though, or else you’ll get lost since it is so involved. There are only 2 seasons but each one has 22 one-hour-long (or longer) episodes. Seriously, though, it’s worth the time commitment. Also, this is even more exciting because at the end May 2017, your boy David Lynch is revamping it! That’s right, you have to watch the old one to prepare for the new one.
So, if you are looking to be spiritually moved by a show, you’ve found it, because I’m telling you. And I know what you’re thinking. How can she just give away this information, is she famous? Is she getting paid? There has to be a catch! No catch here good readers, just your local Odyssey writer telling you, watch Twin Peaks.
