I love Twin Peaks and it’s my favorite series (old one, I hated the new one). Peaks ran a brief 14 months from April 8th, 1990, to June 10th, 1991. When watching Dallas, when Pam woke up to find Bobby in the shower, in my brain I just subrtracted a year and figured since 1985-1986 was a dream, now the 1986-1987 season was actually spanning 1985-1986, that basically the last six seasons are not 1986-1991 but rather 1985-1990. With that in mind, if an episode airing in February of 1991 is actually a year in the past, it would be February of 1990 and so TWIN PEAKS is still two months away. This timeline theory helps me sleep at night but it’s also contradicted at least once when James makes a reference to the Bush administration, but the episode should be 1988 so it’d still be the last days of the Reagan administration. Of course I’m probably putting more thought into this than the creators and writers ever did when they decided to erase season 9.BTW I’m also interested in how often DALLAS keeps winning in your face offs cuz I can’t think of anything I’d want to do less than watch the final season of DALLAS (or any season after Bobby’s death), but your enthusiasm for this era makes me wonder if I’m being narrow minded.</blockquote>
