In reply to the discussion: Harry Dean Stanton, Big Love, Twin Peaks Star, Dies at 91 [View all]bathroommonkey76

I knew what was going on from the beginning of the series- I even predicted a couple of big scenes on my Twitter account.
There were a few YouTube shows that I watched from other Twin Peaks fans. One was called "Twin Peaks Coffee Time" and the other one was from the "Obnoxious and Anonymous" YT channel. Oh, I almost forgot, I also watched "The Vlog Lady" on YouTube.
Most of my adult life has been devoted to worshiping David Lynch and Twin Peaks.
The new season pretty much started where "Fire: Walk with Me" ended- Stanton's character (Carl Rodd) was the manager of "Big Trout Trailer Park" in FWWM. He had a couple of scenes with Chris Isaak (Chet Desmond) and Keifer Sutherland in that movie.
Personally, I think there will be a season 4, or maybe a mini-series to resolve the lingering questions from season 3. Showtime seems to be open to working with David Lynch again. The current president and CEO of Showtime (David Nevins) worked at ABC during the original run of Twin Peaks in the 90s.
Lynch talks about the possibility of season 4 here:
ill it happen again, again?
That's the No. 1 question on the minds of Twin Peaks viewers following the end of the recent Showtime revival or, at least, a top five question. (Frankly, there are so many loose ends, it's hard to prioritize them.) At the very least, the way in which David Lynch and Mark Frost closed out their run on Twin Peaks: The Return has left onlookers wondering if there are plans for further stories centered on Dale Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan) and Laura Palmer (Sheryl Lee), or Richard and Carrie, as it were.
Regarding a fourth season, few people expected a clean answer from Lynch, a filmmaker who famously lets the work speak for itself. And while the answer isn't necessarily "clean," at least Lynch has finally come out and addressed the idea of further exploring the world of Twin Peaks and thankfully, the door to the Black Lodge remains open.
In an interview with EW, Lynch said that he hasn't yet begun discussions with Showtime about another season of Twin Peaks ("The thing just finished!" , but he seems open to the possibility: "Even if there was more, it would be four years from now before anyone would see it. We'll just have to wait and see."
As for whether Lynch has actual ideas for a sequel? "I can't talk about that," he answered, dismissing the question like David Bowie's Phillip Jeffries shouting down the subject of Judy.
For what it's worth, several people orbiting the Twin Peaks universe are eager for a comeback, including MacLachlan, who previously told The Hollywood Reporter: "I would love playing Cooper forever and ever. It's just one of those characters who seems to fit. David and I have worked to make this amazing world and character. I love it. I hate saying goodbye. I hate not seeing him every week on the television."
