  1. ^ Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

Twin Peaks is an American mystery-horror drama television series, created by David Lynch and Mark Frost, that aired on the ABC network from April 8, 1990 to June 10, 1991. The series centers on the investigation into the murder of schoolgirl Laura Palmer in the small rural town in Washington state after which the series is named.

Since the broadcast of the pilot episode, Twin Peaks earned widespread critical acclaim. The show earned a BRIT Award, a Grammy Award, a Peabody Award, three Golden Globe Awards, three TCA Awards, and two Primetime Emmy Awards.

Kyle MacLachlan received two nominations for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series and won the Golden Globe Award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series – Drama. Piper Laurie, who was nominated for two Primetime Emmy Awards—Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series in 1990 and Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series in 1991—won the Golden Globe Award for Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role in a Series, Miniseries or Motion Picture Made for Television in 1990.
