You know how there are good TV shows sometimes? X-Files was the second good TV show. The first was called Twin Peaks.

I would even argue that the X-Files was a direct result of Twin Peaks. David Duchovny just couldn't get enough.

Afaik it was. Twin peaks proved that a show could have a season long plot and people would not only watch it, but it'd be wildly popular. X-files was the first show to take the example twin peaks set and run with it.

every show made after twin peaks for like 20+ years was a direct result of twin peaks

I never finished “The Return” It got way to David Lynch for me. Loved the original seasons tho.

Star Trek TNG predates Twin Peaks, but yeah it didn't change the medium like Twin Peaks did.
