Lynch and Frost - On The Air


Listen Later

Let's take it back.

Way back.

It's the Summer of 1992. The viewing public had long since learned the answer to the question of "Who Killed Laura Palmer?"; Twin Peaks had been off the air for a year, and all hope for a revival and answers to the plethora of questions raised by the Season 2 finale had been thoroughly and hopelessly dashed (or piqued even further) by Fire Walk With Me.

For some bewildering reason, the suits at ABC entrusted Lynch and Frost to come up with another TV show. A sitcom. Based on the mid-century variety shows that had long gone out of favour, and the hilarious hijinks going on backstage at the fictional Zoblotnick Broadcasting Company. Predating 30 Rock and Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip by a good dozen or more years, On the Air was a baffling collection of 7 episodes (3 of which aired between late June/early July on ABC before the show was cancelled).

It's surreal. It's bizarre. It's utterly weirdly fantastic. And it's the subject of this week's Bickering Peaks. (Recorded in early 2017, re-released with a new intro. We hope you enjoy!)
