Last year, writer-director David Lynch bestowed upon the world his 18-episode revival of his classic ABC series TWIN PEAKS. The entire series is currently available to Showtime subscribers on multiple devices, websites, and applications. But for all of us that don't have any of those applications, today we have good news.
Today we have word that Showtime will be airing all 18 episodes of TWIN PEAKS: THE RETURN uninterrupted. This marathon is part of an Emmy For Your Consideration run, which will begin at 4:35 AM ET/PT and end at 10 PM PT/ET June 2nd on Showtime 2.
TWIN PEAKS: THE RETURN was written and executive produced by David Lynch and Mark Frost and picked up:
25 years after the inhabitants of a quaint northwestern town were stunned when their homecoming queen Laura Palmer was shockingly murdered.
The massive cast for the revival series included Kyle MacLachlan, Sheryl Lee, Sherilyn Fenn, Dana Ashbrook, Madchen Amick, Miguel Ferrer, David Patrick Kelly, Richard Beymer, Mark Frost, Frost's father Warren Frost, Ray Wise, Grace Zabriskie, Peggy Lipton, Everett McGill, Wendy Robie, James Marshall, Al Strobel, Kimmy Robertson, Harry Goaz, Charlotte Stewart, Gary Hershberger, Jan D'Arcy, Harry Dean Stanton, Catherine E. Coulson, Amanda Seyfried, Peter Sarsgaard, Balthazar Getty, Robert Knepper, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Bailey Chase, Laura Dern, Robert Forster, Naomi Watts, Tom Sizemore, Grant Goodeve, Larry Clarke, Caleb Landry Jones, James Belushi, Ashley Judd, Jessica Szohr, and Lynch himself.
If you missed the new season when it aired last year, then I highly recommend you check out this marathon. The show was strange as shit, but also (like all of Lynch's work) utterly brilliant and beautiful at times as well. In the end, the good outweighed the tedious in my opinion. Give it a try!
You can start by watching the entire first episode of the revival series below. Then mark your calendars as the uninterrupted run will begin at 4:35 AM ET/PT and end at 10 PM PT/ET on Showtime 2 June 2nd.
