A New Twin Peaks for 2013?
Rumors are flying. Some encouraging it, some denying. David Lynch has reportedly met with NBC to consider a reboot of Twin Peaks. Like many internet rumors, it’s probably just someone taking us for a ride, but what a ride! David Lynch would arguably be at his best and, with the respectability of an elder statesman of American cinema, able to command respect from the studios. Ahead of his time in the 1990s, now the public is accustomed to the format of a long unfolding television drama…that he pioneered.

The final episode ended with Agent Cooper waking up in his bed at the Great Northern Hotel. Cooper asks about Annie, and Harry tells him that Annie is at the hospital and will be all right. Cooper gets up out of bed and tells Harry and Doc Hayward that he needs to brush his teeth. Once in the bathroom, he begins to put toothpaste on a brush, but then squeezes the tube’s contents into the sink. He slowly raises his head, looks into the mirror and smashes his head into it, bloodying the glass. BOB’s face appears in the mirror. As Harry and Doc knock on the door in concern, Cooper maniacally repeats, “How’s Annie?” and laughs uncontrollably.
Beginning season 3 with a demon possessed Agent Cooper pretty much opens up a whole world of possibilities.
