Two seasons captivated Twin Peaks early 1990s television viewers – but then the Mystery Series 1991 ended abruptly with an open circuit. No wonder that the fans were thrilled when it was the end of January 2015 the urprüngliche inventor and director David Lynch was involved in the planned continuation of the series. However, in April already came the disappointment: Due to contractual differences with the Showtime, said Lynch, you’ll have to do without it:

Given the high cost of production should have asked Showtime Lynch and his colleagues Mark Frost putting on to waive a portion of the profit. The horror among the fans was great: “This is a nightmare,” it said in a commentary. He continued: “It would be crap if it would turn another”. That has probably Showtime thought. As the magazine Variety writes that there had been after the cancellation Lynch several new rounds of negotiations with the director and his colleagues Frost. The differences seem now dispelled. Because Lynch reported now on Twitter. “It happened again”

The fans want it not quite believe at first, wondering in Tweets whether Lynch actually takes over the directing. The answer is the president of Showtime, David Nevans. He confirmed Lynch will turn the entire new season, which will include more than the previously announced nine episodes. Early 2016, the continuation of Twin Peaks be broadcast -. 25 years after the end of the original

That is what the series

In the first three seasons of series from the 1990s was all about one thing: Who killed Laura Palmer? This is a question the people of Twin Peaks , a sleepy town, named for its mountain scenery. As suspected a series of murders, the FBI sends Dale Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan). The agent meets the homely atmosphere, featuring the town: Majestic trees, fabulous cherry pie and incredibly good black coffee. But behind the façade hides secrets.

In a mixture of Mystery- and detective series Agent Cooper follows the clues and interviewed witnesses, only a matter of part of the city. Characters such as the singing of the murdered father act comedic, turn over just a moment later into Creepy. The parallel storylines are linked so that comedy, horror and soap opera mix.

David Lynch unravels a network of characters that can compete with any current TV series, but he relies all the laws of series overridden. Suspects disappear without a trace, cliffhanger ends in nothingness and narrative conventions play with the expectations of the audience. In short, Lynch questioned what constitutes a television series and maintains the same time his audience. Whether it will also go to the Palmer murder in the new episodes, is still unknown
