This release includes the first season of director David Lynch's shockingly original television series. When its two-hour pilot episode aired on April 8, 1990, the program forever changed the face of prime-time television. A bizarre, ingenious, hysterical, terrifying murder mystery set in the Pacific Northwest logging town of Twin Peaks, the series opens with the discovery of the body of Laura Palmer (Sheryl Lee), a seemingly straitlaced high school student. Assigned to the case is FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan), a quirky man who converses regularly with Diane, his portable tape recorder. As Cooper settles into his life in Twin Peaks, he meets a revolving cast of characters who are all off-kilter in their own personal way. Gradually, the town’s facade of extreme normality begins to crack mightily, revealing an endless barrage of schemes, fronts, and hidden relationships that expose Twin Peaks as the disturbed, unsettling town that it is.

This is David Lynch at his finest. It has a wonderfully crafted plot that centers around a dead protagonist who drives the action further to reveal the crumbling decay that lies underneath the sleepy small town called Twin Peaks. This quirky television series will keep you enthralled until the very end. Then to your dismay you will discover Season 2 is still yet to be released on DVD!

Quirky characters and haunting music make this an interesting whodunnit.
