Comment on As ‘Twin Peaks’ Turns 35, the Mystery Is Still the Message for a World of Fans

Lost on the other hand doesn’t hold up imo. Feels totally unplanned and aimless in comparison like they were trying to do the strange mystery vibe of twin peaks without anythjng being thought through beforehand and just wroting by the seat of their pants the whole time. Twin peaks is a vibe too where lost is just glossy and overproduced.

Hmmmm, thanks for your great answer. Well I’m now even wondering if I’ll ever bother with Lost.
It sounds like I should invest some time into Twin Peaks then. I imagine that I’ll be able to decide if it’s for me after a few episodes.

I would give it at least 3 or 4 for the characters to be introduced and the mysteries to start developing, as well as to familiarize yourself with the tone and pacing, its a very unique show. Id say after 4 episodes you’ll either be hooked or you won’t though.

Thanks. I’ll definitely give it a try. I currently have “The Blacklist” on pause after a few seasons, I sometimes watch a couple of episodes of “Eureka” for some lighthearted entertainment, it’s a bit silly. Also I have recently been watching “Justified” and it’s going ok but not really grabbing me. “The Americans” has surprised me and kept me hooked, but yeah I’m looking for something more “quirky” I suppose.
Oh I just finished the third season of “The White Lotus” and I’m really not sure what the purpose of those shows were to be honest.

I love eureka. Warehouse 13 is great too if you havent seen it. Also buffy and the new (old) doctor who give me similar vibes. Oh and a show called reaper from the early 2000s. I kinda miss wheb tv was more lighthearted and fun
