The great, GREAT Hank Worden. He was a character actor in a lot of Ford and Hawks westerns.  AND--according to IMDB--had an uncredited role in Smokey and the Bandit.  Do you like apples?

I would have gotten that one, along with tp 22 and tp 39, were I feeling spendthrift.  Maybe tps 10 and/or 11 for good measure.

I considered TP 10, but I don't really collect photographs.  I've always liked Lynch's artwork, though, and ordered a digital print of this, suitable for framing:

FYI, I received word that TP 10 and TP 11 are close to sold out. I decided to grab 10 as a gift for my sister, a Twin Peaks/small things seated next to large things enthusiast.

I am really annoyed that in order to watch the pilot again (I haven't seen it in at least 15 years) I have to buy the gold box set. I have seasons 1 & 2 on DVD, but I bought them separately, so they don't include the pilot.

I might have the pilot on VHS somewhere, but that would require digging out boxes from storage. Maybe I should just sell my two existing DVD sets and buy the gold box.

You can't buy the pilot separately, can you?

My friend has the pilot on DVD; it's probably an import and it's quality is lacking.

I think the Gold box may be the way to go. You get the US televised pilot and the international pilot.

When it becomes available on NetFlix Instant, I believe.  Someone who knows about such stuff will have to fire the starting pistol.

I was amazon right now debating my box set purchase when I saw Lynch's quote on the back of the box:



I imagine Lynch curiously looking at the box thinking about what it  might be.

It sealed the deal!

I immediately ordered two of these.

Which ones?  I got TP 17, which I believe is ESSENTIAL.

TP 17 is very good, and would probably have been next if I'd gotten more.

I got TP 22 and TP 35 - never seen 35 before, I find it playful and fresh compared to some of the others. Leftfield, sort of. And 22 is of course hypnotic. But I could've gone with a handful more.

Good choice.  I like that one for the same reasons.

I haven't properly read through the whole thread yet but I'm in.  I have recently been re-watching this.  When I was in 10th grade the inside of my locker door at school was covered in Twin Peaks pictures cut from magazines.  I read The Secret Diaries of Laura Palmer (written By Lynch's daughter) and the Agent Cooper book and listened to the Diane tapes.  It's a great thing when something you are nostalgic about is actually really good.
