Robot simply would not exist without Twin Peaks. Heady genre-defying shows like True Detective, Dark, or Mr. At a time when American television fell into only a few formulaic genres, Lynch and Frostâs deeply complex, philosophical, and often dizzying series broke the mold. In case you arenât a fan of the cult show, the programme follows the investigation of FBI Agent Dale Cooper (Kyle McLachlan) into the murder of a beautiful all-American teen, Laura Palmer in Twin Peaks, Washington. The brainchild of David Lynch and Mark Frost, Twin Peaks first aired in April, 1990, was cancelled in 1991 due to poor ratings, and revived 25 years later in 2017 for Twin Peaks: The Return.

ââInvitation to Loveââ a voice booms over swelling music. âEach day brings a new beginning and every hour holds the promise of an Invitation to Love.â A hulking diamond ring flashes beneath soft studio lighting as the beautiful, disembodied hands move out of frame.Īnd so each episode of Twin Peaksâ show-within-a-show, Invitation to Love, begins. A beautifully manicured hand reaches into a white envelope and delicately places a card atop its folds.
