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 1

 

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.

NBC Wins It’s First November Sweep In Almost A Decade

NBC Wins It's First November Sweep In Almost A Decade 10

For the first time in almost a decade (nine years to be precise) NBC has won the November sweep.  I believe NBC made a very wise move in attempting to hook people in early before the other networks had a chance to do their part.  With the seasons biggest new show ‘Revolution’ (pictured above) and the mid-August premieres of particular shows such as the second season of ‘Grimm’ NBC took a chance, threw their cards on the table and it all ended up being worthwhile. Congratulations to NBC for the great work and winning the November Sweep this year.  Continue on after the jump for the full press release.
