DVD Reviews
I enjoyed the original "Twin Peaks" series a
lot. I watched it when it ran the first time. The new one is
good, but it's very slow and weird. I think the first series
benefited from some network interference or pressure, maybe?
It was more watchable, to me, than this new one. If you like
really odd shows, you may love this one.
One of the
main problems I have with the series is that we don't get to
see the good guy, Dale Cooper, who was one of the main
reasons to love the old series, very much. Another problem I
have is that they didn't get Michael Ontkean back to play
Harry. He and Cooper were the best thing about the original
series. I'm glad they were able to get most of the others
back.
I'm glad to get this DVD set so that I could
finally watch the series. I don't get Showtime. Also, it has
many great extras to watch, which I enjoyed. It's
worth buying if you're a fan of the original series, but you
can watch it and enjoy even if you've never seen the
original because it's a separate story all on its own.
