Considering we are discussing Twin Peaks, I thought I might mention this incredible show, The Kingdom. Complete maniac Lars Von Trier created it, and it has a remarkable resemblance to Twin Peaks. I think this has a lot to due with the genre bouncing each show does, and the idea of a Utopian society being mysteriously attacked by some type of evil force.
The most telling part of the "genre bouncing" the show does can be seen in its titles, where it tries to play itself off as some type of classic E.R hospital drama. Check it out here.
You can rent this in good video stores, where on the box it reads "Like E.R on Acid" and on the back specifically references its similarity to Twin Peaks. It's got ghosts, witchcraft, old people, supernatural forces, and lots more. It is also the most genuinely scary show I have ever seen, so go out and rent it.
