Revisiting the Black Lodge
There was a time when television was entertaining. A time before television was stricken with a horrifying disease called reality television. That time was back in the mid-nineties when
Showcase was playing Twin Peaks every night at 10pm.
Today I’m taking a break from major issues regarding sex, porn and stripping. Instead I would like to address something more urgent to me: the fact that the second season of Twin Peaks has not yet been released on DVD. This is a big let down to me since David Lynch is my favorite director and Kyle MacLachlan is one of the coolest actors of all time.
Last week I bought season one of Twin Peaks on DVD and was disappointed to find out that season one only contained 7 episodes. When I consulted the Twin Peaks episode guide last Friday, I found out that there were as many as 29 episodes spanning across two seasons. Why, then, has the second season not yet been released? The worst part of this is that after watching only 7 episodes we still don’t get to find out who killed Laura Palmer!
Another problem with the release is that the first season box set doesn’t include the pilot episode! How ridiculous is that?! Why didn’t the company release the series in its entirety? The complete series of Twin Peaks wouldn’t be a much bigger box set than one whole season of 24!
If anyone reading this is interested in purchasing the second season on DVD (or is simply willing to fight for the cause), I ask you to visit this link and enter your e-mail address in order to petition the studio to let them know that there is a demand to purchase this title. Thank you.
Now back to your regularly scheduled porno.
I was informed the other day that Laura Palmer is not only the name of Sheryl Lee’s dead character in Twin Peaks; it is also the name of a porn star. Coincidence? I think not. The Laura Palmer porn star is a spitting image of the Laura Palmer deceased teen queen. I still have yet to find out what kind of porn she makes… could it be necrophilia porn? I wonder if they make her lie still with her eyes open, paint her skin blue and say “Oh baby, you’re so… cold.”
