Twin Peaks (1990–1991)
Brilliant! I love it, but it also annoys me tremendously.
24 June 2010
I must say I have mixed feelings towards this show. One moment I love it, it is the best show on earth, the next minute I hate it, it does nothing but annoy me. The reason I started watching Twin Peaks was because I learned it was written and partially directed by David Lynch. Him being a known artistic film director, I assumed this show would have a quality others did not have. And I was right on that one. The concept behind this show is really compelling. He has managed to make some of the most bizarre and original characters I've ever seen on the TV screen. Sometimes the event that they are in can be seen as a bit of a cliché, but he somehow makes them good. The show also has a supernatural undertone that only appears once in a while, which again makes the show even more compelling. However, like most TV shows, it loses it's quality over time. This normally takes a few season and Twin Peaks only lasted two seasons. But when a TV show has as much quality As this one did, it can so easily hit rock hard bottom. At some point this show sadly fail to deliver, and suddenly the show just ends with a cliffhanger. I feel this is important to mention, just so you've been warned. I truly love this show, it's so much better than most other, but when it comes to the end you might feel a bit cheated like I did. So you've been warned, but I still strongly advice you to see it. Watch the pilot and the two first episodes (there's a scene in episode two that I really interesting) and I can guarantee you that you're hooked.

I have decided not to give a vote on this review as I has such mixed feelings for it. I'll give that start a 10/10, some episodes even fall as far as a 5/10, and some deserve both.
