From The Archives: Behind the scenes of 'Twin Peaks' - LA Times:
"Back in 1990, the L.A. Times asked "Is TV ready for David Lynch?"
The answer, it turned out, was yes and no. Lynch and collaborator Mark Frost's serialized murder mystery poking beneath the surface of small-town America was a pop culture phenomenon when it debuted. But by its second season, audiences had cooled to the series and it was canceled on a shocker of a cliffhanger.
But "Twin Peaks" has been credited as the show that opened up TV to all manner of weirdness and eccentricity. And its influence has lasted for 24 years, right up until Monday's announcement of a revival of the series in a nine-episode limited run on Showtime in 2016.
This story by Steve Weinstein was first published in the L.A. Times on Feb. 18, 1990, just as the series was debuting on ABC."
