The Reality of Twin Peaks

For the majority of this semester we have been debating the intentions of David Lynch in creating the television series Twin Peaks. I think Twin Peaks is a reflection of the increasing use of drugs throughout mid-town America. The town of Twin Peaks was conveniently located near the Canadian border making obtaining illegal drugs seemingly effortless. Leo Johnson and Jacques Renault are the main sources for bringing the drugs into the town. There is not conclusive evidence to prove who all was involved in using drugs but it becomes evident that a large majority of the population of Twin Peaks was using some type of drugs by their hallucinations, mainly of Bob, and erratic behavior.
