starting this. I hope to be on a journey as absurd as everybody goes about. this is definitely in the David lynch realm already, but it's also so funny AND moving. The principal's speech was so sad.
This incredible pilot remember me why I love so much David Lynch. I think I'll love this tv show.
Nice pilot. Some of 90's stuff makes me laugh a little bit, but nothing to do with this anyway.
Great soundtrack.
inarguably the greatest pilot of all time
The same beguiling atmosphere as Lynch's own Blue Velvet, but with the added benefit/distraction of being a TV pilot. Benefit is it doesn't need to wrap up itself within one feature length, so the seeping in of dark surrealism and unease can feel more invitingly slow-burn, natural and intoxicating. The distraction is that it really has to depend on further episodes down the line about what it has established here, so a bad solution (I've heard about mixed reception for season 2 over the years) can lessen this a bit. For now I will cherish one lingering, unexpected grace note among the montage of darkness, disturbance, and terror at the end: Donna's warm and tender interaction with her dad about soothingly mundane stuff.
Great season opening. Kyle is like agent mulder from x-files, they look similar to me :)
A small town. Everyone knows each other.
And some young people betray their lovers.
For a show released in the 90s, it's actually good, even until now I think people would still like it. I liked it. I think I'll continue to watch the rest of the episodes (:
Reviviendo esta serie de 1900, cuando se emitió originalmente apenas tenía 6 años, una serie de culto, mejor de momento que muchas actuales.
This show probably should have been on cable tv to begin with. It was always too unique and ahead of its time for CBS.
Oh my god! Jack Nance! That's so awesome. Eraserhead is my favourite movie but I had no idea he was in this.
Revisiting Twin Peaks again since the praises for this show have been over the roof. I don't know. I remember the show being merely fine but reaching none of the artistic and emotional depth that's in the film Fire Walk with Me. This viewing of the pilot kind of solidifies some of the problems I had with the show. The character works are all quite broad-stroke and caricaturesque. Actors often give bland and soapy performances. The pacing can feel quite stale at times. The same music tracks are applied over and over again, functioning more as cues than as a developing theme. And most importantly, and it's also what separates Fire Walk with Me apart from the TV show, is that Fire Walk with Me is a deeply disturbing, tragic and empathetic account of the psychological toll of abuse, while Twin Peaks the TV show seems to be a quirky crime mystery with a detective that loves coffee and donuts.

One of the best pilots in the history of television. I don't get how could anyone not get hooked after watching it, regardless of what the series eventually turned out. It's a joke that is only rated 7.8 here.
