Since no one else has mentioned it, I'll throw this out for consideration. How about Deer Meadow as a twin of Twin Peaks. You have a great case for a doppelganger community here. The Sheriff's secretary is completely antithetical to Lucy's sweet, winsome, helpful, generous ways. The deputy always laughs, Andy always cris. Sheriff Cable couldn't be further from Truman. The town (at least, the Fat Trout Trailer Park) seems to be at the diametrically opposed end of the socio- economic spectrum from Twin Peaks. Contrast Harry Dean Stanton with Ben Horne for guest accomodations. Then there's the diner, with the sardonic waitress, cigarette but hanging from her lip; hardly Norma. But she is blond, as it the Sheriff's secretary. Another thought: point has been raised as to a possible continuity error whereby Laura has already given Harold Smith her secret diary _before_ she wakes up with Annie in her bed telling her to write in her diary about Cooper and Laura being in the Lodge. But this is in fact perfectly correct, because this dream is not reflected in the diary, we don't find out about it until Cooper and Donna (in the series) encounter the _real_ Mrs. Tremond, who gives them the note that Harold or Laura had given her to give to Donna. That note describes Laura's dream in which she believes Cooper is going to help her, the dream about the Lodge. So she must have given that to Harold or Mrs. Tremond the next day.
