You must have a funny definition of "always". By my records, it was
pre-empted a total of twice -- that means two times -- on the 24th of
November and on the 26th of January. The three week period between the
15 Dec episode and the 12 Jan episode is par for television. Just about
*every* show gets interrupted during the holidays, it's just that it's
not quite so visible with other shows because they broadcast re-runs.
Given the serial nature of TWIN PEAKS, it isn't easy to just drop in a
random re-run.

In the 20 weeks since the beginning of the second season, we've seen
16 different episodes of TWIN PEAKS. That's probably a little higher
than average for a network show.
