]]>Rashida and Kidada Jones, her daughters from previous marriage with Quincy Jones, announced the tragic news. Lipton was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2004, and spent many years battling this disease.
“We are heartbroken that our beloved mother passed away from cancer today. She made her journey peacefully with her daughters and nieces by her side. We feel so lucky for every moment we spent with her,” read the official statement released by Lipton’s daughter.
Peggy Lipton gave showbiz a try when she was fifteen years old. Her modeling career quickly took off, and it didn’t take her long to sign a deal with Universal Pictures. After landing a couple of supporting movie roles and guest spots on TV, Lipton joined ABC’s crime drama The Mod Squad.
This series transformed her into an overnight sensation, and she went on to win a Golden Globe for her portrayal of Julie Barnes. Lipton later joined David Lynch’s cult show Twin Peaks, and its 2017 revival is her last TV credit.
She received numerous award nominations over the course of her five-decade long career.

]]>According to Showtime CEO David Nevins, Twin Peaks has served its purpose and brought in new subscribers. The show will likely end after running the announced 18 episodes.
Nevins was asked if the show will continue to which he replied, “I don’t think so, but it’s not impossible. [David Lynch and I are] both avoiding the conversation for a while; we want to let the story coalesce and see how people feel at the end.”
As Nevins explained, the return of the legendary ’90s show turned out to be a great financial investment: “I’m really happy with the performance. It drove our business in a way that almost nothing else could. It’s been interesting and maybe it’s a blinding glimpse of how Netflix looks at the world but [it had] a palpable effect on subscribers even though its overall numbers are not as big as our biggest shows. But it’s had a very palpable effect on subscribers for multiple months now.”
