Subject: Twin Peaks pilot -breakthrough for Norwegian? From: joee@ifi.uio.no (Joe Siri Ekgren) Date: 1990-04-17, 05:44 Newsgroups: alt.tv.twin-peaks As for the Norwegian investors, I thoroughly enjoyed the bits of norwegian dialog rendered in a hitherto unknown dialect. The movie momentarily raised hopes of norwegian becoming the "lingua franca" of real estate, but dwindled after the abrupt departure of the Norwegians. The Norwegian ministry of foreign affairs is rumored to have launched heavy lobbying in favor of reintroducing the Norwegian element in the "Twin Peaks Saga". By episode 83 you should expect to see: - plugs for trolls (aka bigfoot), - an intro to the art of eating sheep's-eyes, - Beaumont trading in his suit for a norwegian home-knit sweater, - serial killers communicating in runes and worshipping Odin, - assorted norwegian folkdance groups frolicking under the Douglas firs as Beaumont et al scout for clues and wildlife trivia, Please Email me as soon as you come across details that you believe to be truly Norwegian! I will summarize. ----------------- Joe Siri Ekgren Email:joee@ifi.uio.no University of OsloPhone:+47 2 434562 NorwayUSnail:Tidemandsgate 1, 0266 OSLO 2, Norway -- ----------------- Joe Siri Ekgren Email:joee@ifi.uio.no University of OsloPhone:+47 2 434562 NorwayUSnail:Tidemandsgate 1, 0266 OSLO 2, Norway
