	Author	Review
United States	James Poniewozik The New York Times	"Mr. Lynch's mastery of tension persits. (...) At times it feels as if it were a nostalgic 1990 version of the show is alternating scenes with a colder, harder-edged 2017 version."	POS
United States	Sonia Saraiya Variety	"Twin Peaks: The Return is weird and creepy and slow. But it is interesting. (...) Lynch’s vision is so total and absolute that he can get away with what wouldn’t be otherwise acceptable."	POS
United Kingdom	Mark Lawson The Guardian	"[It] will baffle and irk even hardcore fans (...) If the brain is sometimes frustrated, eye and ear are always rewarded"	NEU
United States	Brian Lowry CNN	"It's too soon [2 episodes], ultimately, to conclude whether "Twin Peaks" will justify the investment or, like many a revival, should have stayed in limbo. The first two hours should, at least, pique any fan's curiosity."	POS
United Kingdom	Tristram Fane Saunders Telegraph	"The first new episode was as gloriously/frustratingly obscure as fans could have hoped/feared (delete to suit your tastes) (...) This series will require some patience"	NEU
United States	Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"[The premiere was] scary, disturbing and audaciously funny as many of the best parts of the original 'Twin Peaks'"	POS
United Kingdom	Alex Godfrey Empire	"Lynch unleashed, untampered with, free to do exactly as he wished (…) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Mayer Nissim Digital Spy	"A twisted, triumphant return (...) There's so much going on, and so much 'new stuff' going on"	POS
United States	Emily L. Stephens AV Club	"Pure Lynchian horror (...) It’s unsparing in showing how cruel and calculating people—friends! husbands! wives!—can be to each other. It’s punctuated with pure nightmare imagery"	POS
