‘Twin Peaks’ revival finally gets a premiere date and episode count

I hope you’re ready to get weird, because the followup to David Lynch’s enigmatic and thoroughly f*cked up ABC series, TWIN PEAKS, finally has an official premiere date! Now, if dancing little people, log-caressing women, and cheshire-grinned creepy killers are your cup o’ tea, then you’ll definitely want to change your channel to Showtime at 9 pm on May 21, 2017 when the two-hour presentation of the show premieres!

What’s that? You’ve been waiting for this show for what feels like forever, and a two-hour long premiere simply will not be enough to satiate your desire for murder, nightmares, and sudden changes in a character’s hair color? Well then, you’ll be stoked to hear that, immediately following the premiere, Showtime will make episodes 3 and 4 available via their digital platform.

TWIN PEAKS will consist of 18 episodes that are almost guaranteed to confuse the living daylights out of you. Again, the show will debut via Showtime at 9 pm on May 21, 2017.
