Jon's Ego (in print form!)

connorratliff:

Here’s a weird video I did for the very fun Executive Decision: Twin Peaks show earlier tonight at UCBeast. It features the always great Verónica Osorio Videtta and I had tremendous help from Keith Haskel on the visual effect. (SPOILER ALERT if you haven’t seen the whole of Twin Peaks, though I don’t reveal WKLP.) Also thanks to Matt Dennie, Shalyah Elizabeth Evans, George Kareman & Alan Starzinski…

Knobland was an unaired Twin Peaks spin-off developed by Mark Frost & David Lynch with writer/actor Ted Blitzer in 1992.  The groundwork for the series was laid in episode 16 of that show’s second season, and actress Joan Chen’s exit from Peaks was intended to be explained by her new show.  Unfortunately, the combination of diminishing enthusiasm from ABC and the fact that this pilot episode came in over budget and with a running time of 2 minutes led to the project being shelved.

Well, this sure is the best thing ever.
