I mean, you're also being dismissive by distilling works that a lot of people think were amazing and groundbreaking down to "it's weird, so it's brilliant." Why can't people enjoy it on its own merits and think it's brilliant even if you just think it's weird?
And even if you don't personally enjoy it (which is totally fine), it's basically impossible to deny the impact and influence of something like Twin Peaks. Serialized TV with film-level production quality that deals with pretty serious topics is basically the standard for dramas now, but it essentially didn't exist as a form before Twin Peaks. There's a reason why David Chase (creator of the Sopranos) said something to the effect of "anyone making 1-hour dramatic TV who says they weren't influenced by David Lynch is lying".
