A still from an intro sequence in Twin Peaks. The Log Lady speaks directly to the camera wearing her signature red glasses.
Summary The enigmatic allure of Twin Peaks is inextricably linked to the presence of the Log Lady. Her cryptic prophecies and otherworldly wisdom serve as a cornerstone of the show's surreal atmosphere. Yet, a glaring oversight in the streaming era has deprived audiences of an essential component of the show's experience – the Log Lady intro scenes which, much like a book by Jennifer Lynch, are a Twin Peaks companion.
Twin Peaks' Log Lady Intros Are Missing From Streaming Close A glaring omission in the streaming availability of Twin Peaks is the absence of the Log Lady introductory scenes. It’s a puzzling decision, perhaps a genuine oversight but possibly due to audio volume differences. Either way, this exclusion does a disservice to new and returning audiences.
Twin Peaks’ Log Lady Intros Are Important During The Show's Chaotic Events Close In addition to being Lynch’s equivalent of an editorial note, Twin Peaks’ Log Lady intros ground the series. Throughout Twin Peaks, especially in season 2, events get increasingly off the wall. Without Margaret to greet the viewer and provide some context, albeit cryptic, it would be easy to dismiss some events as weird for weird’s sake. Her commentary is the anchor.
Margaret’s questioning about the drawer pull entrapment shows it’s not meaningless. She highlights Josie’s being trapped in her lies and pursuit of power and calls her a “victim” of power, a reminder that Josie was trafficked, one of several characters that mirror aspects of Laura Palmer. This scene also contains the only closeup of the Log Lady in all the intros, aside from the zoom on the finale, prompting the audience to pay closer attention to seemingly frivolous details.
