Thematically speaking, this is a perfect end for the redoubtable Dale. What is the point of more Twin Peaks? When we left Dale, he had come to the end of a horrifying road he began by travelling back to 1989. It cannot be as it was before.Ī streamlined, affordable, thematically satisfying Twin Peaks: Season 4 A 4th season would have to be more conventional behind the scenes. Beyond the issue of age, if you look into the production of season 3 you'll see that it was kind of a miracle project hundreds of actors (mostly getting paid the industry minimum), lots of locations, all on a shoe-string. It's really getting tricky now to write something coherent because people are starting to drop like flies. You could start with the many cast members who have now either passed away or aged out of acting. My boots are full.Īfter all of that, you also have to consider the production issues that would affect a 4th season. We got 18 hours of glorious Twin Peaks, weird Buckhorn, surreal Vegas. Going back there for more shenanigans seems somewhat needless to me, the whole point is that it all changed yet stayed the same. With The Return, we got some great highlights with Ed and Norma and spent a lot a of quality time with Bobby Briggs, Hawk, Andy and Lucy, and overall learned that Twin Peaks is much as it was a weird mix of good and evil, Jacoby still Jacobying, drugs still prevalent among the youth, etc. Personally, I was very satisfied with where The Return left the town of Twin Peaks, so the entire purpose of a 4th season must first be addressed.

I guess this post is something between a season 4 prediction which factors in the realities of producing and TV show and, though I try to avoid delving into anything too deeply, some amount of fan fiction. With Lynch heavily hinting that he would be (and likely will be afterwards) working on a 'continuing story' if not for Covid, I thought I would take a long look at what a 4th season on Twin Peaks might look like.
