The channel add ons (Hulu, amazon) will have them available the next day as I understand it. Pretty sure I saw someone say that they called amazon and Comcast and they confirmed as much. I'm on the hulu trial now but definitely don't want to wait the following day to see it all.
I've tried to do everything above board. I picked up Showtime via Verizon, which gives me access to Showtime Anytime. There will probably be no problem accessing 3&4 after 1&2, but if there is, well, I will nevertheless be seeing 3&4 that night, and that's really all there is to it.

That should be part 1&2 at 5am and 3&4 at 7am (guess it's the same for FIN, SWE, DEN as well (different timezones maybe?).
Really?? Ok, that is definitly going to f''' up the start of the week for me. No way I can skip work on Monday. I'll have to go to bed early on Sunday (as if I'm going to get any sleep anyway) - get up 4.30 - watch episode 1&2 - go to work - watch episode 3&4 Monday night - then, not be able to sleep again probably.....

I got it from their reply on a comment from this FB-post (they won't give us a precise time, but I believe my assumptions are somewhere near accurate):
@SkyAtlantic on Twitter is communicating with Twin Peaks fans and seems to be working on getting episodes 3+4 available for Monday 22nd. Cross yer fingers.

That's very good news, hopefully they'll sort it out! I also saw that they confirmed that all episodes of the show will be simulcast throughout the season.

Yeah, I've been tweeting them on and off for a while and getting no response. Yesterday was the first time I started getting responses when a few of us ganged up on them. I think the point has been made that they are potentially going to irk the hardcore if they don't sort it out.
Hopefully get some positive news out of it at some point today.

auch bei uns kannst du auf Sky on Demand ab 22. Mai direkt vier Folgen Twin Peaks in der englischsprachigen Version schauen. Am 25. Mai startet dann die deutsche Version mit Teil 1 auf Sky Atlantic HD. Gruß, Martina
Is this the same for Austria as well? I'd love to be able to watch everything on time (legally).
UPDATE REGARDING AUSTRIA:
I asked SkySerienAT on Facebook...
The parts will be available via Sky Go, Sky On Demand and Sky Ticket when they have been broadcast in the US.
That means only parts 1 & 2 will be available on May 22nd.

yes this is the same for Sweden too so almost certainly goes for Finland and Denmark too.. everyone who can access HBO Nordic.

genereally, if anything is on in Germany it is in Austria. Normally if they buy something
and put it on their channels, Sky has the same rights for Austria and Germany.
Dunno if this is also for stuff beign put "on demand" only (like Ep1-4 on 22nd after 3.am)
As you see even they did something else in the UK (Same Company, Sky).
Just tweeted Sky atlantic to see if the simulcast will run ads - they said yes it should do. Still no news on episodes 3 & 4. I suspect we should get an answer to that before Sunday though.
I was looking into this a little more just now and I realized that, unlike most if not all other countries (but typical of Japan), the show isn't airing here even remotely simultaneously - there's not even a broadcast date announced yet beyond "Summer". I've figured out a way to watch, but I'm sure it's probably quite frustrating for Japanese fans.
Again if anyone is curious, it was announced about a day ago that the show begins airing on July 22 here - a full two months behind everywhere else. It's certainly a far cry from FWWM being released in Japan before any other country.
