Stephen King has a
certain knack for taking the normal and turning it into a place where the
unreal becomes the new normal; a world turned upside down. Under the Dome is his latest
book-to-film creation, which started out as a mini-series but has now evolved
into a full-blown network series (a second season is planned).
Paramount Home Media
Distribution announced this past week that this CBS series will be heading home
as separate four-disc DVD and Blu-ray product offerings on Nov. 5.
Chester’s Mill, Maine is
suddenly cut-off from the rest of the world by an invisible dome and those
trapped inside soon find themselves caught-up in a life and death struggle as
the strangeness of it all begins to take its toll.
From battles over illicit drug manufacturing
and petty power struggles to the discovery of the “Leatherheads” and revelations of more
secrets than one can possibly keep count of, Under the Dome just zips along in 13 first season episodes (you have to just love Stephen King's new and wonderfully whacky alternate universe). Survival in this weird place may not be an option!
Strange … strange … and
stranger! Ah yes, Stephen King!
Also placed on the
release calendar this week for delivery on Nov. 5 are DVD editions of I
Love Lucy: Colorized For Kids of All Ages, which features three of her
classic Christmas television specials for the first time in color — “Lucy
Christmas Special,” “Lucy Goes to Scotland” and “Lucy's Italian Movie” — and
the latest collection of Dora and Boots adventures, Dora the Explorer: Dora's Ice
Skating Spectacular.
