I didn't know the future Disney CEO was the guy that ruined Twin Peaks. This makes sense now....

11:04 saying twin peaks has no one to root for is insane when Cooper is genuinely one of the sweetest most delightful characters ever conceived????

So Bob Iger was already an idiot before destroying Disney.

Glad you identify Bob Iger as the real BOB and villain here.

Keep forgetting that Josie is still stuck in a wooden door knob😂

Lynch was really going somewhere with this concept. I wish it had been given the time to unfold as originally envisioned.

So the guy who helped destroy Twin Peaks is also working to ruin Disney now too? Damn, what a track record.

The Return is one of my favorite seasons of any show ever. It's a perfect conclusion

I don't why the line "what year is it?" hits so hard, nothing feels real after that.

For all you youngsters out there. It was a time before the internet, in the uk we had 4 tv channels unless you had a "new" sky bcb satellite dish. This TV series was an epic work of art that was watched due to word of mouth alone. It invented its own genre.

when Twin peaks came back in 2017, my friend and I watched it weekly, then as soon as possible, got the bluray and watched it all again from season 1.

The brutal critique of American society in The Return (selling one's own BLOOD just to survive) was a bold and welcome choice by the creators. Not to mention the critique of us Twin Peaks fans. We didn't *need* more Twin Peaks. We *wanted* it. *Want*.

If you never played Alan Wake, I strongly recommend it. Especially Alan Wake 2, that series has STRONG Twin Peaks influences.

Bob also represents the team of showrunners behind the camera. Also the audience, " the machine" that financialy depends on selling murder and violence for profit. The whole " we killed Laura" thing. Very cool. Meta story telling.

Need some coffee and cherry pie after watching this

still crushing on Peggy Lipton and Madgen Amick, they're both so dang beautiful in this

It blows my mind how lionized Bob Iger is in media nowadays when his approach to it is so absolutely anti-art.

As others have said, this deserves WAY more views. What a perfect summary. The way you’ve articulated everything so eloquently has honored Lynch’s masterpiece.

Man, this really makes me want to watch Twin Peaks

David lynch really crafted a masterpiece with season 3. I truly hope showtime will get a clue & sign up for a fourth season. The season finale though great, felt like it was just getting started.

I''ll never forget how Twin Peaks season 3 was actually the Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated series. Totally unexpected but pretty good!

Probably the best analysis under 30 minutes. Damn fine video.

I wonder if a main stream show like this could even get made today and I’m even talking about how bizarre or weird the show is. The way so much of this show was really just a slice of life story about the townspeople of Twin Peaks doesn’t seem like something that could get made today. It’d get classified as “filler” and be filtered out. It’s really unfortunate because the slice of life stuff is a big part of what makes this show so special and different from other shows

Fire walk with my is a great movie. The Return was great too. Great video!

Hey great video! I'll show it to some friends before they watch it! Bobby IS the BEST! I was lucky enough to meet him and Sheryl (Laura Palmer). Happiest day of my life!

I never understood the series although i really liked it. But one day i looked at it again after i had learned to understand 'in a practical sense' what anti social is.. it all made such an aweful sense. And the world around me started to look like Twin Peaks. Looking back at it, it is kind of genius in the way it shows this evil that is out there. Loved the characters, the story and the music made me wanna learn to play jazz and still at it today. So thanks for that Mr Badalamenti. Great video.. love how you can hear a certain admiration in the narration.

Excellent review David Lynch is one of the most creative minds in cinema and twin peaks along with blue velvet Eraserhead and muholand Dr are his masterworks

This is the best video you've ever made.

great underrated video. really appreciate shining light onto everyone who made this show so great, whereas many others simply talk about David Lynch only, when just like any good TV series the show's genius comes from a highly talented team.

Fire walk with me is amazing

AW is great. AW2 is absolutely brilliant. It’s my game of the decade, because I don’t believe anything will top it. I especially LOVE the musical sequence…

Thank you for a really lovely essay!

Damn good coffee ☕ and awesome donuts 🍩 thrown in makes it a pinnacle of success with a northwest kinda' style.

I feel like Mark Frost doesn’t get enough love.

Great video. Thank you.

Damn fine cup of coffee

Great video :)

Fascinating video!

Awesome video man. Great explanation. Watched fire walk with me for the first time the other day only because I was going through watch David linch movies. Had no idea about the series. Plan to watch the early series and the return. Also, what’s the first song? Sounds like a remix of the theme song of twin peaks

6:18 Tony Soprano: He's just like me

I adore everything about David Lynch and your thumbnail is so awesome,! Is there any way I can find a high quality version?

The song starting at 11:50, which sounds like a remix/interpolation of Into the Night by Julee Cruise, is a huge banger

This deserves a lot more views.

I've seen two versions on the "fire walk with me" poem. One says: "one chance out" The other says: "one chants out" which is canon?

Brilliant commentary of a masterpiece.

I absolutely loved the original series. Season one is perfect. And season two is severely underrated. Up until episode 16 is as perfect as season one. Sure up until episode 23 is not as good it was nice to see more of the great characters. The plot with windom Earle is great and I adore cooper and Annie’s story. And that finale is just amazing. I have seen the return but I had mixed feelings on it.

Greatest TV show ever made in my opinion that had a major part on how I viewed and listened to media. Although I loved The Return I do prefer the ground-breaking original 90s run with its flaws in some of the second season along with the devastatingly dark classic movie Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me :-)

GREAT SHOWS! The best ever made.

This video deserves millions of views.

Completely excellent!

I love this!!!!!

I watched a few of these as a kid but never really understood what was going on. Now I live in WA state and am feeling inspired to go check the series out again. Thanks!

That was great..thanx

If your looking for something similiar to Twin Peaks, I'd recommend the podcast, Welcome To Night Vale books and podcast. It has a Lychian vibe, but more campy.

Who can really say there's no one to root for in Twin peaks?

Is this same Bob Iger who’s fucking up Disney?

This is incredible

The best show ever on TV!

Did anybody ever watch northern exposure not the same but it was also a show in a town with interesting people

nice job

I tried to watch the original series years ago. 2,756 years later...I have absolutely no idea what the hell I watched

*My log saw it.*

Fire walk with Me.

I see twin peaks, I click and like 😍😍😍

Excellent

Psyche did a great spoof episode of Twin Peaks

David Lynch is on the autism spectrum, and Dale Cooper has been called the greatest autistic character on television. Although that also applies to Gil Grissom of CSI. Lynch said that Blue Velvet was based on his time in Spokane. Although, he lived his formative years in Boise, Idaho and I see a lot of that reflected there as I grew up in Boise.

Just about to finish the original series for the first time, its been a great show but boy did season 2 go off the rails. Couldn't figure why it went so wrong so quickly, but behold, it was Bob Igor, what an asshole. Thanks for the video.

I'm a rookie mangaka my greatest influence as a storyteller is Atsushi Okubo he makes a lot references to this show and uses the batshit crazy surrealism of the show as one of the reoccurring themes across his multiple series not to mention the Persona video game series I'm quite addicted to visually references it a ton

honestly, they should’ve saved BOB’s reveal for the season two finale…. That way, the pacing wouldn’t have been screwed up AND it would’ve opened the door for the original series to be kept running

Twin peaks walked with me in my younger years

"you fuk us once, shame on us. You fuk us twice, shame on you" Twin Peaks season 3 is one of the greatest things I've ever seen. It doesn't always work flawlessly perhaps, but I cannot recall anything quite as inventive and occult as this. And even the trajectories that initially you wonder if this is a good decision, they start to work over time. Juggling this many characters, and keeping almost every scene either funny or riveting... the ability to make you laugh and then bring back high levels of menace in back to back scenes, and it works somehow, when really it shouldn't. It feels like I'm watching a show that shouldn't work, and yet it's a masterpiece about good and evil, choice, and echoing destiny.

I Love this series.

Love this show

Loved Twin Peaks - great television!

I loved all of Roald Dahl books as a kid, even his short stories for adults! (Which I was definitely too young to be reading) Absolutely adored the old Willy Wonka movie too!

God damn, i realize I forgot everything. It's like if i never understand half of it.

Love me some twin peaks.

I liked this video, yes, nice.

Bob Iger - franchise killer. Learned nothing spoiling Twin Peaks, so spoiled Star Wars too. Goof off failed upwards.

As 1:07 it was 1990 not 1989, but I'm liking the narration so far.....

As of 17:27 if Season 1 got all of that unexpected recognition then maybe the series really did impact Television and/or American culture. Maybe it showed studio execs that audiences could appreciate programming far more sophisticated than sitcoms.

Where can I find this remix of Into the Night, please?

As of 24:14 pretty good so far. This was one of the most unusual shows ever on TV, but I don't get any sense of how it changed Television in the years since. Also, I don't think the police procedure aspect is the point. I feel that agent Cooper represents the audience, but his FBI authority allows him, and David Lynch to peel back onion concealing the mysteries of Twin Peaks.

btw, your text at opening has a significant typo…. the quote is “one CHANCE” out between two worlds.” not CHANTS. it’s s important, the “one chance out” is essential to the story

Blue Velvet is another classic

Twin Peaks is a TV Show.

Yeaaaah Let's get this video to a lot of views in the first hour so that it gets love from youtube Algorithm bless this video which i liked even before watching it because it's that good Seriously, sometimes i end up pissed off because i can't like it again after watching it, fix that youtube Lots of words lots of engagement, yadda yadda

represent the third season of Twin Peaks with the two doubles Agent Cooper, Daggie and the bad Cooper who has taken over Cooper's body not the mind which remains still and stuck in a dream, if we remember correctly Cooper becomes Daggie and remains in that family recovering positive energy and recovering the strength to fight with the bad Bob, many characters help, in the end the good wins, I don't think Agent Cooper died second he woke up, unfolding the future and taking Laura into another dimension, time leap, in fact we also find the waitress who worked with Carrie Page in the future... the photo of Laura dying disappears, so Cooper saves Laura but takes her to another place and year... Laura forgets her old life, even if then with the mother's voice remembers everything and perceives the evil that still exists, Cooper only then realizes that he has not managed to eliminate the evil entity, and Carrie's cry is just so strong, she remembers, she feels the evil.. Said this would require another series of twin peaks where this time leap is resolved and we see both Cooper and Daggie, the two worlds, understand if Laura's mother is the one to be eliminated... there are still things to resolve, dreams and reality. we want the fourth season

David 'what the hell?'

I'm still not sure what to think of the Return. I found it much more difficult to digest than the original.

It premiered in 1990

The "sequel" series was under appreciated imho

Wow. I can't believe Bob Iger keeps destroying everything until now.

👍🏻👍🏻

I love twin peaks but when scooby doo mystery incorporated did it it just made it more depressing. I don't like my scooby doo bumming me out so much that i can't even finish the series

Fire walk with me

Fire Walk With Me is a masterpiece. normie.

Hey Look, Bob Iger killed Twin Peaks before Disney Star Wars and Marvel!!
