From 'Riverdale' to 'X-Files': xiv Shows Nosotros Wouldn't Have Without 'Twin Peaks' (Photos)

• 

  It'south not an exaggeration to say that "Twin Peaks" inverse the face of tv set. It proved that you could tell serious, surreal, narrative, character-based stories. You lot could too take risks. David Lynch proved that you tin shape the stories around interesting characters, explore the most mundane of settings ... and still create an intriguing story. Since its debut 3 decades ago, the show's legacy has only gotten stronger with a batch of shows that information technology inspired, for better or for worse.

• 

  "Northern Exposure"
  It wasn't as creepy as "Twin Peaks" -- far from it -- but "Northern Exposure" drew from some of its more wholesome elements. Null also suspenseful or weird happened, but that was the point. Like "Twin Peaks," "Northern Exposure" was near the characters' relatively minor lives.

  CBS
• 

  "The X-Files"
  Fox's sci-fi serial is not exactly similar "Twin Peaks," merely it'south difficult to imagine that this show about FBI agents investigating weird crimes (sound familiar) would've gotten made without it.

  Flim-flam
• 

  "Six Feet Under"
  HBO'south funeral habitation drama was more directly upwards comical than "Twin Peaks" ever was, simply both shows attempted to explore decease and the surreal aspects of life with a form of lightness. "Twin Peaks" was more supernatural-based (sometimes), but both wanted to say something new in regards to those topics, and it spoke to fans.

  HBO
• 

  "Veronica Mars"
  For some reason in the early 2000s, nosotros got a slew of series that were essentially "Twin Peaks" but for a teen audience. "Veronica Mars" had a similar premise -- a teen girl is murdered and somebody has to effigy out who did it. Information technology'southward only in this case, we get to see Kristen Bell, a high school pupil, solving crimes.

• 

  "Pretty Little Liars"
  This is another of one of those 2000s murder teen dramas. Based on a popular book serial, "Pretty Footling Liars" follows 4 girls who are fatigued together later they all get messages from the mysterious "A," who knows nigh the murder of their friend Alison and all their secrets. The violent mystery element ties it to "Twin Peaks," merely the suburban drama and camp makes it fresh.

• 

  "The Killing"
  Both the Danish series and the U.Due south. series describe from quite a few "Twin Peaks" elements: pocket-size town murder, teen murder, a deep dive into the intimate lives of the characters. Just the U.S. 1 feels particularly inspired, since information technology takes identify in a world like our ain, just one that's just slightly off. It made for neat cinematic, narrative TV.

  AMC
• 

  "Gravity Falls"
  Information technology'southward weird to meet a Disney Channel drawing on hither but I tin can't talk to this show up enough for fans of "Twin Peaks." Twins Mabel and Dipper Pines move to the town of Gravity Falls and soon discover not everything is every bit it seems. There are town conspiracies, supernatural demons, humour, horror, and plenty of actual "Twin Peaks" references. Be certain to picket out for the Kyle Maclachlan cameo in the serial finale.

  Disney
• 

  "Les Revenants"
  This is Gothic, supernatural suspense at its finest. This French drama series (which was adjusted to U.Southward. television with less than stellar results) depicts a town where the dead suddenly render alive. It'due south a small town drama, supernatural mystery, and grapheme story all rolled into one.

• 

  "Hannibal"
  The books NBC's "Hannibal" show were based on came out before or around the same time as "Twin Peaks," only Bryan Fuller's takes information technology in a whole other direction. "Hannibal" is less nearly the story and author Thomas Harris' obsession with serial killers and focuses more on psychology and symbolism. Take a look at any of the dream/fantasy sequences and note how any of them would fit right at home with David Lynch.

  NBC
• 

  "Broadchurch"/"Gracepoint"
  ITV'southward "Broadchurch," along with its American accommodation "Gracepoint" on Fox (both starring David Tennant) are basically the same show then we tin lump them here. Ii detectives -- 1 local and another trying to starting time over -- investigate a murder in a tiny town by the bounding main. Yes, trying to solve the murder is an integral attribute of the series, merely how everybody in the town treats each other mail-murder is ultimately more satisfying and engrossing.

  ITV
• 

  "True Detective"
  Like "Hannibal," and patently "Twin Peaks," HBO's "True Detective" is obsessed with its artful and mythology. Information technology's non so much about the story equally it is most the graphic symbol journeys and the lofty dialogue. That was the example in Season 1 anyhow. We don't talk near Season two.

  HBO
• 

  "Wayward Pines"
  The early trailers for "Wayward Pines" were about too familiar to fans of "Twin Peaks," but the show was able to distance itself for being less welcoming to its regime amanuensis protagonist, at least in Flavor one. Information technology'south a lot darker, more hopeless, and probably the almost egregious imitator on this list.

• 

  "Stranger Things"
  Netflix's striking takes more from Stephen King and Steven Spielberg, but those creators take a lot in mutual with Lynch in what fascinates them. Rex specially loves exploring minor town life affected by supernatural events, and the violence that can tear people apart. "Stranger Things" is a story about kids in the heart of a traumatic outcome and, unlike "Twin Peaks," the cardinal victim doesn't terminate up dead. Others aren't so lucky.

  Netflix
• 

  "Riverdale"
  All you lot have to do is bandy out a couple of key elements to meet the parallels in the beginning season. Instead of Jason Bloom, information technology's Laura Palmer. Instead of Archie, Jughead, Betty, and Veronica, it'south Donna, James, and Audrey.
