Twin Peaks: The Return delves into the surreal world of the Black Lodge, where Dale Cooper remains trapped after the original series' cliffhanger. The third season explores the themes of time, reality, and the enduring power of Lynch and Frost's unique vision.
In Twin Peaks season three, FBI special agent Dale Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan) is trapped in the supernatural Black Lodge 25 years after the original series’ cliffhanger ending. The third season sees Lynch and co-creator Mark Frost unleash their unique vision in all its surreal glory; the result is strange, sometimes excruciating – but always compelling. When Twin Peaks debuted in 1990, it was a cultural phenomenon.
On the surface, it was a classic whodunit: a homecoming queen, Laura Palmer (Sheryl Lee), is found dead and a charming, ebullient FBI special agent, Dale Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan), turns up in town to investigate. Despite the often violent content, entire families sat down to watch, and groups of friends had viewing parties where they ate cherry pie, drank damn fine coffee and dressed up as characters – including wrapped in plastic as poor Laura. The broad appeal was because of writer-director and writer-producer Mark Frost’s compelling style, which transformed a small-town murder mystery into an oddball drama, replete with profound tragedy, supernatural forces and complex relationships. Across two seasons and a prequel movie (1992’s Fire Walk with Me), Lynch and Frost’s uncompromising and unique vision and pastiche of genres and tones – from soap opera to film noir, zany comedy, tragedy and horror – forever changed what television could look like. Fast forward 25 years and Twin Peaks: The Return landed in 2017 – a third season, featuring 18 episodes, all directed by Lynch. No longer beholden to network constraints, Lynch and Frost used their full creative autonomy to execute a vision entirely their own – and the result is strange, sometimes excruciating, but always compelling T
