I am a big fan of David Lynch's works and had huge expectations from Twin Peaks.
The story captures you at the beginning and you can feel the mystery as you expected, but afterward it turns into a circus.
The problem is the storyline feels like they came up with some ideas in a night or two and started directing with the materials they put on paper.
What kills the story is:
- Too many side stories which are going nowhere
- Too many filler characters and dialogues
- Desire of connecting everything to each other, but forgetting this is a small town(For instance; Donna finding out the fact that her father is someone else or James is leaving the town but ends up in a criminal act which has nothing to do with the story.)
- David Lynch acting as an agent with hearing loss. This character was so annoying and far away from being funny
- Too many mysterious cases like a fruit salad(Agent does not hear anyone but Shelly or Dale Cooper's nemesis shows up and surprisingly he is also into the mystery. Plus he has a connection with the Major and on)
- The characters are cool with supernatural cases and the way pieces are connected is so weak.
The final statement: This is a very promising series which is not matured enough to be aired. It deserves a clean 7, but the rating is really exaggerated by the fans that I felt like I need to bring the balance. The white/black lodge thing. You know what I'm saying...
