TWIN PEAKS: LIMITED EVENT SERIES. The three faces of Kyle MacLachlan slide together like a chevron jigsaw puzzle on this Blu-ray's awesome hard-board box _ although its foldout insides will drive some fans mad with those slip-in disc pockets. Being picky comes with the territory of auteurs David Lynch and Mark Frost, back on the scene of their original 1990 TV fever dream, in this year's 18-part Showtime continuation.
Extras: Six-plus bonus hours, many equally dreamlike, include 3 Blu-ray exclusive half-hours _ cast on-location rumination, and a pair of Red Room shooting shorts. On both Blu-ray and DVD is idiosyncratic 10-part series "Impressions," tracking Lynch's production process. Also: Comic-Con panel, "Phenomenon" look-backs, Lynch-produced promos, more.
List price $65 Blu-ray or DVD, out Tuesday from CBS.
