‘Twin Peaks’ To Be Reborn In Third Series? Producer Mark Frost Dismisses The Rumor

Every once in a while a strong rumor surfaces about the possible return ofTwin Peaks, which was a TV smash in 1990 and then fizzled out in a truncated, unresolved second season the following year. Despite the fact thatDavid Lynchseems more interested in music than anything else of late, recent comments from hisPeaksco-producerMark Frostvaguely suggested a possible return for the show.

Then, on New Year’s Eve, ananonymous comment on 4chan(yeah, seriously) led to a widespread rumor that Lynch and Frost had met with NBC about reviving the show. (Despite the fact that ABC originally aired the series.)

Now Frost has spoken up to push the rumor way back from reality — the reality being thatPeaksis still dead and likely to stay that way.

Frost’s tweet from yesterday evening is the key:

Dear Internet: You are very good at spreading rumors. Truth is more valuable and much harder to come by. Sincerely yours,@mfrost11

And if that isn’t clear enough, Jace Lacob of the Daily Beast (viaMovieline) says he’s emailed with Frost, who denies any talks with NBC:

Just to clarify: per his email to me, there have been no conversations between Mark Frost and NBC re: Twin Peaks. NONE.

While Frostdid say recentlythat “[A third season is] something we talk about from time to time… If we ever do decide to move forward, I know we have a rich trove to draw from,” that was likely little more than idle talk. Mounting a third season would take a remarkable effort, and would require the full and unfettered collaboration of Lynch, Frost, and (ideally) some of the series' original writers to craft something that works as a suitable continuation. At this point it doesn’t seem to be happening, and as a tremendous fan of the series I have to say I hope it remains a thing of the past.

(Now, a good restoration of the cut material fromFire Walk With Meis a different story. That’s something I still hope to see one day.)
