Something to Muse About: Twin Peaks

And so, it begins! With the new SHOWTIME® limited event series that premiered this past Sunday (May 21, 2017), Entertainment Earth announces its first 2017 San Diego Comic-Con Convention Exclusive - the Welcome to TWIN PEAKS Sign Monitor Mate Bobble.

TWIN PEAKS® debuted in 1990 and, in retrospect, is a harbinger of the Golden Age of Television. Widely regarded as one of the best television dramas of all time, it mixed mystery, horror, and soap opera into one surreal package, delighting and mystifying audiences. Now, you can celebrate the return of the award-winning television series TWIN PEAKS on SHOWTIME®.

Let your office mates know how much you miss Laura Palmer and the quirky characters of Twin Peaks, Washington with this Monitor Mate™. Perched high atop your computer workstation, fly your flag of fandom for the once and future king of primetime melodramas. The sign looks much like the famed sign from the series, apart from being scaled down to fit on top of your computer monitor and being attached to springs for a pleasing bobbly effect.

Crafted of resin, this colorful sign will add mystery to the decor of any office. It attaches to your computer - or any surface with a non-damaging adhesive pad. This official TWIN PEAKS collectible from Bif Bang Pow! enhances the room and makes an excellent gift for any fan of the series.

The Limited Series Will Premiere In 2016

LOS ANGELES – October 6, 2014 – Dig into some cherry pie and rejoice! Today, SHOWTIME announced that the critically-acclaimed Golden Globe® and Peabody Award-winning series TWIN PEAKS will return as a new limited series. Series creators and executive producers David Lynch and Mark Frost are on board to write and produce all nine episodes of the limited series. Four-time Oscar® nominee David Lynch will direct every episode. TWIN PEAKS will go into production in 2015 to air on the network in 2016, marking the 25th anniversary of when the program last aired. Set in the present day, TWIN PEAKS will continue the lore of the original series, providing long-awaited answers for the series’ passionate fan base. The announcement was made today by David Nevins, President, Showtime Networks Inc.

“What more can I say – TWIN PEAKS with David Lynch and Mark Frost on Showtime in 2016!” said Nevins. “To quote Agent Cooper, ‘I have no idea where this will lead us, but I have a definite feeling it will be a place both wonderful and strange.’”

Lynch and Frost added: “The mysterious and special world of Twin Peaks is pulling us back. We’re very excited. May the forest be with you.”

For viewers hoping to reminisce or for those discovering the series for the first time, SHOWTIME will re-air the first two seasons of TWIN PEAKS, in advance of the new episodes going on air in 2016. Widely considered one of the most groundbreaking and influential broadcast series of all time, TWIN PEAKS followed the inhabitants of a quaint northwestern town who were stunned after their homecoming queen Laura Palmer is shockingly murdered. The town's sheriff welcomed the help of FBI agent Dale Cooper, who came to town to investigate the case. As Cooper conducted his search for Laura's killer, the town's secrets were gradually exposed. The mystery that ensued set off an eerie chain of events that plunged the inhabitants of Twin Peaks into a darker examination of their very existence. Twenty-five years later, the story continues...
