The show Twin Peaks had a killer who was probably an evil entity, named "Bob." The titular IT of the Stephen King novel sometimes referred to itself as "Bob Gray, ESQ," a conundrum which the recent Welcome to Derry TV series insisted on giving a backstory, IMO, unnecessarily.
I thought TP began very well but it went downhill quickly.
The early episodes were more unsettling locally, where we had a murder, the day after the broadcast of the second episodes, that superficially resembled the instigating murder of the series. That crime remained unsolved for more than a decade. DNA evidence later identified the killer. By then, the killer, facing charges on another crime, had killed himself.
Thanks for pointing out that Psych episode. I just wrapped up a Twin Peaks watch/rewatch a couple nights ago (I'd seen much of the original series when it originally aired, and two complete-out-of-context episodes of The Return), and that sounds like a fun episode to track down.

Bob from Twin Peaks, or Bob Gray, ESQ?
I don't know who either of those two are.

Ah. Never saw any Twin Peaks. I read the novel It years ago, but had not retained that name.

One of my favorite episodes of Psych was an homage to Twin Peaks, including a number of actors from the series.
"Dual Spires"

"Dual Spires" is episode 12 of season 5 of Psych.
Meanwhile, fifty-one years ago...
