Don t trust us either. eat my shorts. all right. the simpsons is like shakespeare in the sense that we quote the simpsons all the time, very often without even knowing it. excellent! i wish i could create something that culturally indelible. it is unlike anything else tv has ever wrought. twin peaks showed up out of nowhere at the beginning of the decade, and the pilot episode of that was one of the strangest and most exciting things i have ever seen. diane, i m at the twin peaks county morgue with the body of the victim. what s her name? norah palmer. it was incredible. i mean just how slowly in the beginning the news spread around this little town that this young, beautiful girl had died and that haunting music was so dark and so beautiful.
