"She's dead. Wrapped in plastic."

Date: Friday, February 24, 1989: Homecoming Queen Laura Palmer is found dead,
washed up on a riverbank, wrapped in plastic sheeting. FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper
is called in to investigate the murder of this young woman in the small,
Northwestern town of Twin Peaks. What he doesn't know is that in
Twin Peaks, no one is innocent.

YES! I am so thankful that we have this FORUM because I was a big fan of Twin Peaks! And I probably wouldn't have known that it existed if it weren't for Soap Opera Digest because they covered it. Who killed Laura Palmer? That was the question that many people wanted to unravel, but little did they know what was in store for them. Especially a show created by David Lynch and Mark Frost.

Do you know where i can download old episode for Twin Peaks?. Because i've been wanting to see this show because i never seen it before.

[Noel]

That's a good question, TVSoaps08! I'm such a YouTube whore that I'm spoiled on it. There HAS to be someone out there who can share some Twin Peaks with us!

[Southofnowhere]

I watched the movie a little while go and it made no sense once so ever!

[Noel]

Are you talking about Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me? What didn't make sense to you because I've watched the movie like 150 times and I think I understood David Lynch's logic about the movie once and for all!

[Southofnowhere]

Ya that was it. I couldn't understand any of it.

Did it take u the whole 150 times to understand it?

[brimike]

I think I'm the only TP fan alive who loved the Wyndham Earle story more than the Laura Palmer story.

Yes, I know that makes me the devil. Or Bob, in this case. I accept that I'm in the minority.

"I watched the movie a little while go and it made no sense once so ever!"

Hi, this is my first post...long time lurker but this thread encouraged me to register. Anyway, Fire Walk With Me should only be watched after you see the entire series - or at the very least through until the Palmer murder is solved. My suggestion is to watch the U.S. pilot first, then the entire series, and THEN watch Fire Walk With me. Even though it's a prequel to the series, it won't make any sense without viewing the series. (It's also the weakest link in the entire saga, although it has its moments.)

Also, if/when you find the Pilot, be sure it;s the U.S. version and not the European version, which was designed as a single event and spoils parts of the series.

[EricMontreal22]

The complete box set is one of my fave purchases--and is really good bang for your buck (considering I paid more for that old release of Season 1 without the pilot...)
