Entertainment David lynch sesame street
This Sesame Street ‘Twin Beaks’ parody has been going viral and we’re sure David Lynch would have loved it
There’s been so much love for the legendary director David Lynch on Twitter after his death at the age of 78, and quite right too. People have been sharing their tributes to the great man and they’re a wonderful read.
One of the more unlikely tributes came from the official Sesame Street Twitter account who shared their own take on Lynch’s masterpiece Twin Peaks, starring The Cookie Monster.
It’s called ‘Twin Beaks’ for reasons which will quickly become apparent. We’re sure that David Lynch himself would have loved it.
Parodies of pop culture hits like David Lynch’s Twin Peaks are key to Sesame Street’s co-viewing model, giving adults and children a chance to enjoy the show together. #RIPDavidLynch pic.twitter.com/ZFMsf4aNiz
