Which season? Either way the simple answer is 'no' but I don't know which one you mean.
The 2017-one. My boss is a huge Twin Peaks fan, but refuses to watch the new one. He says it was never meant to be made, and was only done so against what Lynch had really wanted. Something with contracts and money.

He’s probably wrong, but I don’t think I will try to convince him otherwise, he was so passionate when he talked about it a couple of months back.

I feel like anyone with that sentiment doesn’t really respect David Lynch

I'm imagining how this conversation went.

Showtime Exec: "David, we'd like you create a series that's more or less an 18-hour movie about interdimensional, timeless evil that folds back onto itself an infinite amount of times like a mobius strip on drugs. Oh, yeah, and Kyle MacLachlan is going to play 3 or 4 different characters."

David Lynch: "Fine, if I have to."

If it makes you feel better, the opposite is actually true. Lynch was ready to walk away because Showtime tried to interfere and refused to give him the budget he needed to achieve his vision.

He walked away. Then after more talks Showtime have in and have him the money and totally creative freedom. The Return is pure Lynch. His vision in and out, through and through. No compromises.

On a side note, I picked up the soundtracks today. There is so much good music on there! So far I seem to be drawn to the song by Trouble more than the others. My only complaint was that I was hoping they would put the slowed down Moonlight Sonata and the Woodsman's poem from Part 8 on there.
What an amazing show
