Welcome to Stuff I Learned Yesterday. My name is Darrell Darnell, I wore one of my Star Wars t-shirts to the store yesterday and someone asked me what I thought of the new Rogue One trailer, and I believe that if you aren’t learning, you aren’t living. In today’s episode of Stuff I Learned Yesterday we’re taking a look back at an episode about patience.
Today fun fact is: Today is April 8th and on this day in 1990, Twin Peaks premiered on ABC! Here are some fun facts about this fantastic show. (from Bio.com)
- Catherine E. Coulson, aka The Log Lady, has been offered a lot of money for that log, but she’s still holding on to it. She used to take it with her to Twin Peaks conventions and appearances, but that ended when she stopped being allowed to store it in the overhead compartment on airplanes. According to the TSA, it could be used as a bludgeon.
- Mikhail Gorbachev was such a fan of the show that he asked George H.W. Bush to use his Presidential power to find out who killed Laura Palmer. The President failed, not because his request didn’t make it through to David Lynch, but because Lynch hadn’t decided who the killer was yet.
- He’d done a few movies, but David Duchovny’s first TV role was as transvestite FBI agent Dennis “Denise” Bryson, who comes to Agent Cooper’s aid when he’s temporarily kicked out of the FBI.
- The much-used homecoming queen photo of Laura Palmer is Sheryl Lee’s real prom photo.
- Maddy Ferguson’s murder – which revealed Laura Palmer’s killer – was filmed three different times, once with Leland doing the killing, once with Bob, and once with Ben Horne, to keep everyone on set guessing until the final reveal.
