CBS Picks Up ‘Under The Dome’; Orders 13 Episodes Of The Stephen King/Stephen Spielberg Series

CBS Picks Up 'Under The Dome'; Orders 13 Episodes Of The Stephen King/Stephen Spielberg Series 4

 

The series from King/Spielberg, based on the best selling novel by Stephen King has been picked up by CBS for an initial 13 episode season.  While I’m happy to see this series finally get moving, I have to admit that as a huge fan of the book (one of my favorite King novels in fact) that I’m quite disappointed  by the fact it will not be airing on Showtime as originally planned.  This book was quite disturbing and uncompromisingly brutal and I’m honestly not sure how well this is going to work on network TV, but I guess we shall see.  Continue on after the jump for the full press release.
