I practically did a spit take with my coffee and my cherry pie fell on the floor!!!!!!!
I think I called or emailed or texted at least 10 people yesterday about this... Oh the great memories this brought back watching our fuzzy VHS tapes I had of this show.
One of my friends reminded me that now Lynch can really do what his vision is, without the constraints of network censors... (nudity and disturbing imagery being his forte.)
In nosing around on the internet, the recent Blu-ray set of TP has like almost 2 hours of deleted scenes! (most of which I think is from the movie, but looked like very interesting material.)

Psych did a TP tribute episode a few years back entitled "Dual Spires" with a few of the original players. It's worth looking for if you're a fan.
