from Now We Know
Digging once again into the depths of the Now We Know vault, originally recorded in September 2022, an examination of On The Air. July 1992. Mark Frost and David Lynch are a year removed from the cancellation of the landmark TV phenomenon Twin Peaks, and Lynch has just months prior screened Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me at Cannes, disparaged at the time, yet now considered a masterpiece. So, the dynamic duo decide to pair up on a new show, in a whole new direction: a hokey sitcom about a 1950's TV station starring Twin Peaks alums Ian Buchanan and Miguel Ferrer. Met with scathingly negative reviews, it was pulled after just seven episodes. Did it deserve it? Well, you'll just have to lis-oh, whatever, yes! Yes it did! It's awful!
