A couple of years ago Twin Peaks: The Return lit up the screens and the ardent fanbase was reinvigorated and excited to see the saga unfold with Agent Dale Cooper lost in the Black Lodge and Bob possessing the body of Cooper and repeating "How's Annie?"
There was a high level of expectation and hype surrounding the series after the 25 year wait. However the new series defied expectation and forged its own path, free from most of the shackles of its past and as a result, was the finest mixture of art and television I have ever seen.
Twin Peaks: The Return was a sublime limited series. Each episode was like a mini movie with gorgeously framed shots and haunting imagery that stayed with you long after the episode had ended. New characters were introduced and were taken close to the hearts of the fans and one such character was Chad, the no-good, corrupt cop on the pay of DoppelDale. Check out the music video made by Chad reflecting on his life in Twin Peaks and enjoy the iconic location shoots. Enjoy!
