Old School Twin Peaks Fans

I guess maybe it was different everywhere, but where i lived, no one watched it. I had some friends outside of school that did, but that's it. It was pretty cool actually because twin peaks had its own little subculture of people. We were the artists and weirdos and musicians and misfits.

By the time FWWM came to the theaters, twin peaks was considered "cool" by the masses, due to things like lollapalooza, jim rose freak show, and lsd.

If I'm interpreting you correctly, you're basing this on logic rather than having experienced it, yes? I don't deny that you have a point, but nonetheless far from everyone had heard of it. And a lot of people were just like, "What's that weird show? Boring." and promptly forgot about it.

Most people just had a few channels on TV. You had ABC and NBC and CBS or whatever, and then PBS if you wanted to watch "Victory Garden" or "This Old House" (lol). If you were a sort of couch potato family that worked normal hours, 8pm was a really important "prime time" and you'd go, "OK, it's prime time. Let's see what's on." If you happened to like "21 Jump Street" with Johnny Depp (or whatever!) on ABC, then that was your show, and you didn't pay attention to Twin Peaks on CBS. (I don't remember what channel it actually was on.)

As an aside, my whole 4 years at college I never watched/saw TV at college. I didn't know anyone who had a TV in their dorm, and TVs were not put in public places of the college. There was one little cubby-like place where you could go watch a TV, kind of for research purposes like if you were taking a politics class and wanted to see the news. Of course, when I would go to live with my parents in the summer, it would be the couch potato routine again and the TV automatically stayed on (as if to keep everyone company) during prime time. I'm not claiming it was like that for everyone, just saying it wasn't weird to not know what was going on on TV unless you were following it or had a habitual routine of keeping TV on certain times.

Yeah see that was the weird way things were, because I had heard of Fresh Prince, but never even seen an episode.

Signatures! Whoah. The only thing like that I did was write a letter to Weird Al. And to a ninja.

Yes, yes, yes! That f'ckin llama scene is definite top 5 best tps scenes!

Good job converting the young one. Mormons... you'd think there'd be more of um.

Exactly. My age is 41. (How is that a surprise or a mystery?) Which is why you calling me grandpa or a child (alternately) falls flat.

With you on the other hand, being an actual Pinterest Grandma, with your overuse of emojis on the tablet, boasts about your porcelain skin and thick hair, tabloid talk about botox, Tesco's runs for missing recipe ingredients, hormonal mood swings, furious use of ellipsis while typing in the doctor's waiting room, holidays to Spain, etc etc it is clear you are in slight denial of your senior status.
