"Twin Peaks" is a crime drama and psychological thriller series that originally aired on ABC. Its first two seasons premiered in 1990 with a movie adaptation called "Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me" that was released in 1992.
The franchise's story started when FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan) went to the fictional town of Twin Peaks in Washington to look into the murder case of popular high school student Laura Palmer (Sheryl Lee). He quickly became the darling of the town, known for his distinct expressions as well as his deep love for a "damn fine cup of coffee."
