'Twin Peaks' Series Update: Co-Creator Mark Frost Says Reboot Has Been Pushed to 2017

Fans who are eagerly anticipating for the return of "Twin Peaks" in the small screens may have to wait a bit longer, the show's co-creator recently confirmed.

Speaking with the National Baseball Hall of Fame's senior curator Tom Shieber, Mark Frost said that his and David Lynch's cult classic series will air two years from now and not in 2016, as what has been previously announced by Showtime.

"A lot of people always look back at 'Twin Peaks' and say that was the start of this explosion we've had in good television drama, but we did it in a time when there were still only three networks," said Frost. "The challenge for us is to try and come back and raise the bar above what we did the last time. We're coming back with season three of 'Twin Peaks' after a 25-year absence. We've finished the scripts, we start production in September, and that will be coming out on Showtime sometime in 2017."

The show, which debuted back in 1990, was first ordered a nine-episode revival by the cable network in October and was initially announced to premiere in 2016.

The later updates indicated that original cast member Kyle Maclachlan has already signed to appear in the reboot project.

Lynch's involvement, meanwhile, saw a lot of changes. In April, he announced that he is exiting the show "because not enough money was offered to do the script the way I felt it needed to be done."

Good news followed in May when Lynch declared that he is already returning to the project and it will now have additional segments than what has been previously ordered.
