Twin Peaks: The Television Collection [DVD]

David Lynch's TV epic Twin Peaks took the world by storm in the late 80s and early 90s. The mystery of the death of Laura Palmer captivated millions of viewers. Every week people watched to see Agent Dale Cooper try to solve the Palmer case. The first season was groundbreaking but the second season was a big misfire that ended the show prematurely. After the failure of the lone film: Firewalk with Me, the show vanished until 2017 when season 3 (The Return) hit Showtime and again hit a home run. The show is amazing and was arguably the most influential show of the 90s. So lets say you want to get the entire series in collection: is that possible? Yes, but with a caveat. This collection gives you all of Twin Peaks Season 1,2, and 3. Their are around 16 BR discs worth of content. Not only do you get the entire show but you get hours and hours of special features (everything from interviews, cast meetings, cast reunions, and entire history of the show, fan conventions,etc) making this the perfect package for both newbies to TP hardcore fans. That said there a few knocks about this whole package. First on the show side: yes season 2 is a notable drop in quality from season 1, its a slog to get through whereas seasons 1 and 3 are amazing and will keep you hooked from beginning to the end. Second: this IS NOT the complete franchise as Firewalk with Me (the prequel film) is not included. If you are going to want to see everything the movie ( and the Missing Pieces extra footage), you need to watch this too. Fear not, the movie is available via the Criterion Collection (with its own batch of goodies including the missing pieces which was another 90 minutes of film footage ), so you can get everything pretty easily on here if need be. Lastly, the packaging is sturdy but sometimes the discs are a little annoying to remove so be forewarned. Conclusion: If you always wanted to start the show, this collection is great. If you are still a longtime fan who wants to watch it all over again, you will be giddy over the extras alone. Welcome to Twin Peaks friend, you must try the cherry pie Norma makes. P.S If you meet a little man in a red suit dancing be sure to listen to him.

The show is unimpeachable; that’s not what this is reviewing. The physical product is great; it’s a ton of discs, stacked 2x2 in sections across the bookpage-style package. I was concerned about having discs sit atop one another but as long as care is taken it hasn’t been an issue. The discs are very similar-looking but each clearly labels what episode range is on each. Feature-wise, each disc has the Log Lady intros from syndication and previously-ons which can be opted-in to auto play or not, not to mention a variety of making-ofs or interviews or outtakes depending on the disc. The box set is probably the definitive way to own the whole tv saga.

Best show ever! This is a must have for any collection.

I remember coming across re-runs of twin peaks as a kid and not having a grasp of what the show was all about. Older me took the plunge and dived into the rabbit hole and boy was I just blown away how good the show is. The characters just grew on you. The original show kept you hungry and wanting more. The whole answering a question and ending up with a ton more was hit to the T. Im a fan of watching something that scrambles the brain a bit. The icing on the cake is the showtime episodes and revisiting twin peaks and see more of the weird odd David Lynch magic. It’s weird and strange but it works on so many levels. Such a great purchase I will always cherish.

I would give this a five star rating, except it arrived with a crack in the case that prevents it from latching shut. Also, one of the discs was loose and rattling around, but that’s just due to the impractical design of the case, which many other reviewers have complained about in detail. But all my discs appear to be unscratched. I love the series itself. It’s obligatory to mention that Season 2 has a noticeable dip in quality due to creative interference from network executives (namely Bob Iger), but Seasons 1 and 3 are very captivating from start to end. Do be aware that this collection does not include Fire Walk With Me and The Missing Pieces, which should be viewed in between Seasons 2 and 3. But I’m happy that I can have the original series and The Return together at a reasonable price.

Amazing deal! My best friend loves the series and was a perfect gift for her - lots of discs for lots of content!

This is a great, all-in-one set for the series. I am currently watching on a 4k bluray player which is upscaling the standard bluray to 4k onto a 70in tv. The image quality, especially in season 1 and 2, is noticeably better than how I viewed the series last year on Paramount+. With so many titles switching streaming providers or vanishing entirely, it is great to build up a physical media collection for titles you want to return to every few years. The smallest issue: The numbering of the episodes in season 1 and 2. They are a bit different from what is on streaming. So if you are trying to watch at the same pace as someone else, it is best to go by episode title. Example: Episode 1 is episodes 1 & 2 stitched together. So episode 2 is technically episode 3 on streaming. But the packaging is really great. I recently got Doom Patrol and it is similar, but the plastic which holds the discs is flimsy and comes apart (one shipment I sent back because several discs were sliding around). However, this Twin Peaks set is very secure and easy to get to the discs you need. RIP David Lynch!

Mi serie favorita, q loco que en dvd se vea tan bien Descansa en paz genio david lynch

Girlfriend love this for a birthday gift!! She's been talking about trying to find a box set of this show for months. Show is pretty good too can't lie lmao.

Overall very happy with this product. My only issue is the writing on the discs is very hard to see. Otherwise it's very good !

TV版の、全3シ－ズンを原語で一気見出来て、よかった。 昔、レンタルビデオ屋で空きが無く、視聴に数週間掛かかったのを思い出しました。 DVDと違いUS版もリ－ジョン等を気にせず視聴出来て便利になりました。 ディスクの取り出しが面倒ですが、慣れたところです。 次シーズン(があれば)、楽しみです

A série é excelente, reconhecida. A qualidade da imagem e áudio é muito boa. A caixa poderia abrigar melhor os discos, muitos vieram soltos.
