Twin Peaks The Return Spoilers
Upon thinking on it some more, The Return really feels like a response to modern revival culture. David Lynch took every character you loved from the original series, and took away as much narrative agency that he reasonably could from them, going so far as to give the "climactic battle" to a brand new character with 3-4 total scenes. It feels like a deliberate mirror to what many revivals unintentionally become: A directionless cameo-fest.
