First look at Stephen King’s ‘Under the Dome’

CBS has developed a mini-series based on Stephen King’s science fiction novel, Under the Dome. If this behind the scenes footage is any indication, it should be pretty good.

Simpsons did it. OK, now that we have that out of the way, I’m excited for this show. I wish there were more mini-series on TV. I understand that it’s more costly than multiple seasons of one show, but I think networks would do well to run several mini-series each year instead of dragging out shows that are past their prime. I’m looking at you, Prison Break. Knowing that an entire story will be told over the course of 13 weeks makes me much more likely to watch something, especially if it involves Spider Pig.
