When Evan, Brian and I did the TV Timewarp of Twin Peaks, my love of the show took a hit, I'll admit. Those last few episodes of the series are so rough, and by the time we got to Fire Walk With Me, I was hating the world. But in the ensuing years, as I'm able to watch the show at my own pace and skip the episodes that pain me, I'm back to adoring it and Lynch's amazingly strange prequel film. And this is nothing but good news:

The Twin Peaks Blu-ray is finally hitting shelves July 29, and it will include nearly 90 minutes of unseen footage from Fire Walk With Me - footage that fans have been fighting to see for years.

'During the last days in the life of Laura Palmer many things happened, which have never been seen before,' Lynch said in a statement. 'They’re here now alongside the new transfer of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me and Twin Peaks, the television series.'

The visual quality on the Gold Box DVD is already fantastic, so I cannot wait to see how beautiful this beautiful show is going to look on Blu. The box itself is incredible:

and the above trailer had me squirming in anticipation in my seat. But I'm dying to know what other special features will be included on the Blu. As I said, the Gold Box looks great and includes commemorative post cards that I jealously hoard, but it's a little puny in the way of special features, particularly commentary on crucial episodes. I'd love some Lynch commentary on the pilot, on Fire Walk With Me and other important eps.

As my co-pilot Special Agent Dale Cooper once wisely said, "Every day, once a day, give yourself a present," and come July 29, I'm giving myself this box set.
