Her arc in Twin Peaks was quite long (half a dozen or so episodes) notable for a few reasons - she was hired directly by David Lynch, her arc came during a much-maligned sequence of weaker episodes and her arc was one of the most-notorious, giving her a lot of cult attention at the time and still in the fandom. One of her episodes was notable too for being one of Diane Keaton's first and last directing ventures in TV, very noteworthy at the time. Other noteworthy/cult-status ventures include a famous "Riptide" episode that got buzz at the time for mocking/parodying "Moonlighting", which beat it in the ratings, leading to "Riptide"'s cancellation. (She played a mock version of Cybill Shepherd's role.) She's also known for some cult 80's movies, such as "Creature". Was in a lot of other major shows, had a decent stretch on "Baywatch". Comes from a mini acting dynasty and left the business rather abruptly. Still gives cult interviews for Twin Peaks and things. She seems to have retired but has loads of major credits and links to other articles she's mentioned in. While a lot of her roles were small, all the credits are major, and some of her roles gave her cult status. --HistoricalAccountings (talk) 16:44, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Only official sources are used in the article, but there are other articles and interviews by the Twin Peaks fandom that explains some of the directors she worked with, the poor critical reception and the allusions to classic movies, but I don't think they can be included in the article itself due to their nature. Here's a few anyway for those interested in learning more (the first two in particular are good) and if anyone feels they or any of the info can be added to the article, go for it.
Update: I had another look and decided to use some of these in the article, not the wordpress one though. They can be removed if considered unsuitable, but think others are okay. -- HistoricalAccountings (talk) 11:17, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
