minus-squareFrank [he/him, he/him]@hexbear.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·20 days agoAfaik 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.
