This release includes the entire first season (7 episodes and the pilot) of director David Lynch's shockingly original television series. When its two-hour pilot episode aired on...
more...April 8, 1990, the program forever changed the face of prime-time television. A bizarre, ingenious, hysterical, terrifying murder mystery set in the Pacific Northwest logging town of Twin Peaks, the series opens with the discovery of the body of Laura Palmer (Sheryl Lee), a seemingly straitlaced high school student. Assigned to the case is FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan), a quirky man who converses regularly with Diane, his portable tape recorder. As Cooper settles into his life in Twin Peaks, he meets a revolving cast of characters who are all off-kilter in their own personal way. Gradually, the town's facade of extreme normality begins to crack mightily, revealing an endless barrage of schemes, fronts, and hidden relationships that expose Twin Peaks as the disturbed, unsettling town that it is.

Full review
If you liked Twin Peaks all those years ago when it was on TV your going to absolutely love it now. Having the box set makes the storyline alot easier to follow and once the music kicks in its like meeting an old friend.
If you havnt allready had the pleasure of Twin Peaks and you like fantasy, thriller or a good who done it, then this is deffinately for you. But be warned, this is not the norm. Twin Peaks had a cult following and may not appeal if you are bothered by the strange. There are twists and turns galore, along with the strangest characters you are ever likely to come accross.
Twin Peaks is a unique experience that i recomend to all who enjoy a touch of the strange.
