The television drama, which aired originally on ABC from 1990 to 1991, followed the FBI investigation of a murder in the small fictional town of Twin Peaks, and was supposed to get its long awaited third season next year.

Frost, during the Baseball Hall of Fame speech, said: "The challenge for us is to try and come back and raise the bar above what we did the last time." It has been 25 years since the initial release date of the series and since they began working they have faced a few set backs in production.

Entertainment Tonight reports back in April, director David Lynch was leaving due to budget conflicts with the network. In May, Lynch returned to the project and production resumed once more, Frost during the speech mentioned scripts were done and they'd begin shooting in September.

Twin Peaks will now return in 2017 and is set to air on Showtime, no other information about the revival has been released since the changes to when it is supposed to air.
