Laura did tell Cooper ”I’ll see you again in 25 years”.

Knowing how his fans hang on every word of every rumor of a possible revival, would he be so cruel as to drop such a tantalizing clue?

It’s probably baseless. And if it is true I’d put my money on it being a disappointment. But who knows?

Damn good coffee!

Damn good show!

The owls are not what they seem.

Diane, 11:30 a.m., February Twenty-fourth. Entering the town of Twin Peaks, five miles south of the Canadian border, twelve miles west of the state line. I’ve never seen so many trees in my life. As W. C. Fields would say, I’d rather be here than Philadelphia. Fifty-four degrees on a slightly overcast day. Weatherman said rain. If you could get paid that kind of money for being wrong sixty percent of the time, it’d beat working. Mileage is seventy-nine thousand three hundred forty-five, gauge is on reserve, riding on fumes here, I’ve got to tank up when I get into town. Remind me to tell you how much that is. Lunch was, uh, six dollars and thirty-one cents at the Lamplighter Inn, that’s on Highway Two near Lewis Fork. That was a tuna fish sandwich on whole wheat, slice of cherry pie, and a cup of coffee. Damn good food. Diane, if you ever get up this way that cherry pie is worth a stop. Okay. Looks like I’ll be meeting up with the, ah, Sheriff Harry S. Truman. Shouldn’t be too hard to remember that. He’ll be at the Calhoun Memorial Hospital. I guess we’re going to go up to intensive care and take a look at that girl that crawled down the railroad tracks off the mountain. When I finish there I’ll be checking into a motel. I’m sure the sheriff will be able to recommend a clean place, reasonably priced. That’s what I need, a clean place, reasonably priced.

Oh Diane, I almost forgot. Got to find out what kind of trees these are. They’re really something.

I could be persuaded to watch a Twin Peaks redo that cut the atrocious second season and follows more on the plot of the lodges and the evil entities that dwell within and possess humans.

The Log Lady!

I watched the show when it originally aired and I would support a remake, especially if David Lynch consulted.

I could also be persuaded to do this. But only if they didn’t leave Agent Cooper possessed at the end.

I don’t think they’re talking about a redo. I think they’re talking about a sequel, following up 25 years later.

It better have Badalamenti’s music! They’ll need a new cast, too. My favorite – Sherilyn Fenn – has bulked up too much to play her old part. Who could still do their same part, you think?

Anyone who hasn’t seen the *Psych *homage to Twin Peaks (called “Dual Spires” I believe) needs to get to their Netflix account, toot pronto!

If it takes place 25 years later, then any changes in appearance will make perfect sense.

Now that’s true! :cool: Are any of the originals unavailable due to passing on and the like? (I haven’t kept up – obviously)

Jack Nance (who played Pete – sweet old dude who says “she’s dead! wrapped in plastic!”) is long dead.

Thanks, Steken, I guess we could look over the whole list for survivors. Those were good times!

damn donut store.

Jack was a favorite of David.

Aka Eraserhead.

I quit this partway through the second season, so I actually have no idea how it even turned out. It sounds like that’s a good thing.

Jack was in more of David’s production than any other actor, half of it.

For those interested, some info on the death of Jack Nance.

25 five years later… Coop comes stumbling out of the woods with no memory of the last 25 years, not even aware at first that 25 years have passed until he encounters Sheriff Hawk and Mayor Truman.

Pete Martel passed years ago.

Audrey runs the Great Northern. She’s single… bitter, crippled, and disfigured from the explosion. For 25 years she’s been obsessed with the mystery of what happened to D. B. Cooper - that’s Dale Bartholomew Cooper, the FBI agent, not the airplane hijacker; although many of the avid “Cooper Conspiracy” theorists insist that the two are connected. She’s regularly harassed by these crazy conspiracists; some of whom insist that she knows more than she’s telling.

Then the daughter of James and Dr. Donna Hurley is found. Dead. Wrapped in plastic.
