I post this because 1) there are many Twin Peaks fans on the forum, and 2) because the '91 DS was often compared to TP:

I think they've had ideas about its coming back now, since the show was on originally.  Remember they showed a glimpse of the future supposedly, the dwarf dancing, the curtain, an older McLaughlin (name?) sitting in the chair?  That was 20 or more years in the future.

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.)

The USA network show 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.

Too bad they weren't Nielsen families, right?

I've told this story to several Twin Peaks actors,  Sheryl Lee, Russ Tamblyn and Kimmie Robertson. I hope at least one of them related the story to David Lynch.

Funny you mention that because a few months back I had met James Marsters and told him that tale...

He's quite the animal lover himself and did seem genuinely affected by the story, because of course by this time the dog had passed on into that great White Lodge in the sky...   [hall2_cry]

Robot Quentin, I had the exact same experience with Sheryl Lee. She was very sweet and compassionate.  [hall2_cry]

It was my pleasure - particularly when members here are obviously interested in the TP reboot.  [hall2_smiley]  It's odd, though, that they changed the title of the article after I posted the link because it's now called "Cooper and Audrey OTP and 4 other 'Twin Peaks' companion book predictions."

the OS aired when I was in college and at some point in it's run they (quite foolishly in retrospect) moved it to Saturday nights...

I recall going to "keg" parties and everyone crowding into the one dorm room that had a television set and watching. it was "must see".
