Re: Does any tv series / book saga / movie saga achieve B5's plot structure?
But Twin Peaks wasn't planned out from the beginning, I'm pretty sure it was mostly made up as it went along. I even don't think they decided who murdered Laura Palmer in the beginning. I mean sure they knew it was "bob" but who he inhabited and the details were probably not decided.
I remember reading the Lynch didn't even want to reveal the murderer until the end of the series.
