I'm not trying to talk you out of watching The Prisoner, but I felt compelled to mention that the first season of Twin Peaks predated Wild At Heart (albeit, only by a few months).

Still, I can only take two hours of sound effects being way too loud, and dialogue
sounding way too forced. Sure, I loved WAH for its sheer magnitude of stupidity,
but like I said, I have a low tolerence.

I'm going through the entire series for about the tenth time and am again forced to wonder how much the main theme ("Falling") that Badalamenti and Lynch wrote influenced what would become Labradford's "sound." It really would not sound at all out of place on E Luxo So or Mi Media Naranja.

In a fit of rabid housecleaning, I unearthed my VHS tapes of ON THE AIR and the original, made for TV MULHOLLAND DRIVE.

I got them when I was working at ABC. I wish I could watch them, but my VCR is broken.

I want ON THE AIR to be released on DVD.

ON THE AIR! What happened to this show? It wasn't crap.

I thnk I only ever watched the first episode of this, but the "this is what Blinky sees" bit is one of the funniest things I have ever seen on television.

Is it pretty much same until the lesbian scene? From what I've read, everything from that scene on was shot just for the film version.

Oh, and "Twin Peaks"? Not crap. Waffles for the middle of the second season, but Lynch saves it with the final episode.

I went to high school in a very small town in northeastern Washington, and it was very "Twin Peaks"-esque. With this series and "Blue Velvet", I've always felt that Lynch captured a sense of weirdness that feels very much like the rural parts of the northwestern states.

there is a site out there that chronicles which scenes were from the TV pilot and what was made for the film and it's actually quite interesting...evidentally, robert forrester was supposed to play a big part in the series, unfortunately...

again, twin peaks - not crap

mulholland drive - super duper not crap

andyk - about to take a crap

I guess the Season 2 DVD is coming out soon.

They'll be showing the European theatrical version of the pilot here soon, with Catherine Coulson (log lady) in attendance. Cool!
