‘Twin Peaks’ remake now not coming until 2017, per Mark Frost
There have been countless rumors and conversations about just what the future will hold for this revival of one of the most noteworthy dramas of all time. At one point it appeared that David Lynch was not going to be involved anymore over some behind-the-scenes issues. Many of those conflicts have now simmered off, and the latest issue now revolves around when it will air. As Mark Frost stated in a new interview with the Baseball Hall of Fame of all people, it may not be until 2017:
“A lot of people always look back at Twin Peaks and say that was the start of this explosion we’ve had in good television drama, but we did it in a time when there were still only three networks. The challenge for us is to try and come back and raise the bar above what we did the last time. We’re coming back with season three of Twin Peaks after a 25-year absence. We’ve finished the scripts, we start production in September, and that will be coming out on Showtime sometime in 2017.”
One of the other reasons for this lengthy delay may tie into the fact that the show is not going to have an 18-episode third season, which is going to take a lot longer to make than the nine that was originally hinted at.
Let’s just hope that this is all worth all the time it is going to take to come out. Remember that sometimes you really want something, but then it actually hits the public and it is not anything like you imagined.
