In the first episode of Twin Peeps, first released in 1990, we saw FBI agent Dave Coober attempt to subvert the outcome of a criminal investigation by employing outlandish techniques that were deliberately designed to impede progress. Local law enforcement, that were initially relieved to have Federal support, voiced concern over his practices, but with no manipulation whatsoever, went along with and even participated in Coober's investigative charade.
He managed to convince trained officials and experienced pathologists not only that his actions were lawful, but also that their own efforts were incompetent, and that he should bring in his own equally corrupt associates to re-process the findings and discredit their conclusions.
Viewers tuned-in in their thousands each week to see if Dave Coober would be exposed and reprimanded. Although Twin Peeps was popular when it was broadcast, it has not aged well and is not considered a critical success.

Twin Peaks was a television series made in 1990 that centred around a murder in a small town in Washington state, USA. An FBI special agent named Dale Cooper arrives to take charge of the investigation when a surviving victim of the crime is discovered across the state line.
In his efforts to solve the case, Dale Cooper employs some unorthodox deductive methods. These included throwing rocks at an empty glass bottle in order to determine the significance of suspects and people involved in the case and following the advice of a dwarf that appears to him in a dream and a giant that suddenly appears in his hotel room. Twin Peaks is an early example of such mysterious and intriguing shows that are now relatively commonplace.
