Heh. @Hyper Dose, it didn't really fit in with the show per se. But The Return was like that. A lot more out there than the original on ABC with a lot of set pieces that were their own thing. And I loved 'em.

I couldn't ever get enough Twin Peaks. Even when it was bad like early in season two, it was neat to watch.

Even before Michael here, TP: The Return put me onto the Cactus Blossoms. They were one of the first acts on the closing roadhouse segments. They did "Mississippi" and I was hooked.
