  • How Twin Peaks Changed the Face of Contemporary Television
    “That Show You Like Might Be Coming Back in Style” 44 DOI: 10.1515/abcsj-2015-0003 “That Show You Like Might Be Coming Back in Style”: How Twin Peaks Changed the Face of Contemporary Television RALUCA MOLDOVAN Babeş-Bolyai University, Cluj-Napoca Abstract The present study revisits one of American television’s most famous and influential shows, Twin Peaks, which ran on ABC between 1990 and 1991. Its unique visual style, its haunting music, the idiosyncratic characters and the mix of mythical and supernatural elements made it the most talked-about TV series of the 1990s and generated numerous parodies and imitations. Twin Peaks was the brainchild of America’s probably least mainstream director, David Lynch, and Mark Frost, who was known to television audiences as one of the scriptwriters of the highly popular detective series Hill Street Blues. When Twin Peaks ended in 1991, the show’s severely diminished audience were left with one of most puzzling cliffhangers ever seen on television, but the announcement made by Lynch and Frost in October 2014, that the show would return with nine fresh episodes premiering on Showtime in 2016, quickly went viral and revived interest in Twin Peaks’ distinctive world. In what follows, I intend to discuss the reasons why Twin Peaks was considered a highly original work, well ahead of its time, and how much the show was indebted to the legacy of classic American film noir; finally, I advance a few speculations about the possible plotlines the series might explore upon its return to the small screen. Keywords: Twin Peaks, television series, film noir, David Lynch Introduction: the Lynchian universe In October 2014, director David Lynch and scriptwriter Mark Frost announced that Twin Peaks, the cult TV series they had created in 1990, would be returning to primetime television for a limited nine episode run 45 “That Show You Like Might Be Coming Back in Style” broadcast by the cable channel Showtime in 2016.

    2016 PILOT PRODUCTION REPORT 6255 W. Sunset Blvd. CREDITS: 12th Floor Research Analysts: Hollywood, CA 90028 Adrian McDonald Corina Sandru Graphic Design: http://www.filmla.com/ Shane Hirschman @FilmLA Photography: FilmLA Shutterstock FilmLAinc TABLE OF CONTENTS WHAT’S A PILOT? 3 GROWTH OF DIGITAL PILOTS 4 DRAMA PILOTS 5 COMEDY PILOTS 6 TOP PILOT PRODUCTION LOCATIONS 7 THE MAINSTREAMING OF “STRAIGHT-TO-SERIES” PRODUCTION 8 PILOTS’ ECONOMIC IMPORTANCE 10 THE CURRENT DRAMA LANDSCAPE IN CALIFORNIA 11 CONCLUSION 13 Each year between January and April, Los Angeles residents observe a marked increase in local on-location filming. New television pilots, produced in anticipation of May screenings for television advertisers, join continuing TV series, feature films and commercial projects in competition for talent, crews, stage space and sought-after locations. However, Los Angeles isn’t the only place in North America hosting pilot production. Other jurisdictions, most notably New York and the Canadian city of Vancouver have established themselves as strong competitors for this lucrative part of Hollywood’s business tradition. Below these top competitors is a second-tier of somewhat smaller players in Georgia and Ontario, Canada—home to Toronto. FilmL.A.’s official count shows that 201 broadcast, cable and digital pilots (123 Dramas, 78 Comedies) were produced during the 2015-16 development cycle, one less than the prior year and the third straight year in which more than 200 pilots were produced. Out of those 201 pilots, 79 projects (25 Dramas, 54 Comedies) were filmed in the Los Angeles region. This represents a 13 percent drop from last year, when 91 pilot projects filmed here and it is also the lowest number of pilots in the last six years that were produced in the region.

  • Twin Peaks at Twenty-Five
    IN FOCUS: Returning to the Red Room—Twin Peaks at Twenty-Five Foreword by DAVID LAVERY or Twin Peaks (ABC, 1990–1991), 2015 was a damn fine year. The last annum has seen the completion of a new collection of critical essays ( Jeffrey Weinstock and Catherine Spooner’s Return to “Twin Peaks”: New Approaches to Theory & Genre in Television), an international conference in the United Kingdom (“ ‛I’ll See You Again Fin 25 Years’: The Return of Twin Peaks and Generations of Cult TV” at the University of Salford), and the current In Focus.1 Not coincidently, this has transpired alongside the commissioning of the return of the series on the American premium cable channel Showtime for a 2017 debut.
