After hearing about the death of David Lynch, I went looking for this fantastic set of "Twin Peaks" themed commercials commissioned by Coca-Cola Japan from their Georgia range of canned coffee, but was surprised that no one seems to have posted it previously.
Broadcast in 1992 and 1993, this series of commercials was actually written and directed by Lynch himself. The series tells the story of a Japanese police detective, Takeshi "Ken" Saito (played by Takanori Kikuchi, most famous for portraying Kaoru Kino in "Kamen Rider Agito"), who asks Agent Dale Cooper to search for his missing fiancée, Asami Hara.
Apart from Kyle MacLachlan reprising his role, Catherine E. Coulson (The Log Lady), Kimmy Robertson (Lucy Moran), Harry Goaz (Deputy Sheriff Andy Brennan), Michael Horse (Deputy Sheriff Tommy 'Hawk' Hill) and Mädchen Amick (Shelly Johnson), also return in their roles.
The campaign explained and expanded the story of the four commercials with additional material printed on the side of 32 special edition Georgia cans of coffee. A planned sequel to the TV commercials was halted when when the campaign did not increase the sales of Georgia range of canned coffee as much as Coca-Cola had expected.
