Eraserhead: 2 lines craft ×2

  1. craft (craft): Eraserhead → Twin Peaks. The apartment's repeated floor patterns and curtain staging resemble the red room in Twin Peaks.

Twin Peaks: The Return (season 3, parts 1-7 and beyond): 2 lines contrast ×1 craft ×1

  1. contrast (contrast): Twin Peaks: The Return (season 3, parts 1-7 and beyond) → Twin Peaks. The Return uses far less Badalamenti music than the first two seasons and the two movies.
    “There's so little of the Battle of Menti music in this show compared to the 1st 2 seasons and the movies.”

Twin Peaks: The Return, Part 8: 2 lines unmapped ×1 theme ×1

  1. unmapped (setup): Twin Peaks → Twin Peaks: The Return, Part 8. In season one the supernatural is first hinted by talk that something is in the woods, which the woodsmen embody.
    “I would say like the 1st indication when you have season one of Twin Peaks, the 1st sort of indications of the supernatural things that will immediately start happening in season 2 is them talking about, there's like something in the woods.”

Angelo Badalamenti: 1 line craft ×1

  1. craft (craft): Angelo Badalamenti → Twin Peaks. Connor says Badalamenti's jazzy music made even the weakest season 2 scenes feel like Twin Peaks and watchable.
    “he made even the lowest points of season 2 feel like Twin Peaks and feel watchable because his music was always there”

Arrested Development: 1 line unmapped ×1

  1. unmapped (revival logic): Twin Peaks → Arrested Development. A revival can be worth it for one great piece, as Wally Brando justifies the Return the way a few moments justify the Netflix Arrested Development.
