Firstly, Lars Von Trier clearly watched Twin Peaks.

Secondly, The Kingdom is NOT a Twin Peaks copy. Even if Trier takes elements from Twin Peaks, AND FROM OTHER TV SHOWS !!!

Is The Kingdom bad because it's a mix of TV Shows ?

ABSOLUTELY AND UNQUESTIONABLY NO !

One of the greatest things about The Kingdom is it's a mix of comedy, silly horror and medical drama. This makes it an original masterpiece, only the intro tells it with it's mix of orchestra, pop and middle-aged choir. This series shows that a brilliant show can be made without big budget. Stig Helmer is one of the best examples for great character development, the setting is speaks for itself, the weak cameras are not taking away from the experience, they are one of the reasons for this otherworldly mood The Kingdom has.

The Kingdom is A VERY FUN SHOW.
