Under the Dome is back with one of TV’s strongest episodes |

Recently, I attended a Summer Press Day for CBS and someone asked if Under the Dome is the first show from Stephen King to get a second season. When she asked that question, I thought she was kind of dumb because both The Dead Zone and Haven got a second season a few more after that.
Then I watched tonight’s season premiere and I understood why she asked that question. Even though I love those other two shows, they do not have the same impact that Under the Dome does.
Tonight’s episode at 10p is one of the finest hours of television I have ever seen and I think I’ve seen about a million hours of TV. The first thing it has going for it, is that Stephen King, himself, wrote it. So right then and there, you know it is going to be brilliant. But then the cast could mess up, but instead they gave his words a life beyond the page. Dean Norris, who plays Big Jim, gives an Emmy worthy performance. He is just so good at being so bad. But it isn’t only the script and acting that make this episode, it is also the cinematography that make this episode beautiful and eery at the same time. It’s like the pink stars lined up to create the perfect episode.
So what happens tonight? I have debated since I saw it how much I want to tell you because there are a lot of surprises you won’t see coming. Because for some reason there hasn’t been that many spoilers for it.
So what will I tell you? As you have heard, there will be death. Someone will die before the first commercial break and someone else right before the credits roll. I will also tell you that the episode starts off exactly where it left off, with Barbie (Mike Vogel) about to be hung. Is he one of those two? As if I am going to tell you that. We also find out what that strange light is, and what it wants. Other than that, I don’t want to tell you any more. I want you to experience this episode as I did. With shock and awe and admiration.
In the next coming days, I will share some spoilers about this season with you. But until then, I want you to go in like you’ve been trapped under a dome since September. If you’ve never seen the show that changed summer TV forever, then you can watch the recap episode on OnDemand. You don’t want to miss the show that over 10 million people a week tuned in for. It’s that amazing, that people are willing to stay in on a hot summer day and watch TV. No other show can say that.

I’ll never look at Dean Norris’ Under the Dome chrome the same way! |

Dean Norris Instagrammed this photo of his bald head replacing some woman’s big breasts. After looking at it, I have to say that all the meth that was made on Breaking Bad will never make what I have seen it alright. It is just so wrong, especially when you can’t stop looking at. Anyone else having that problem.
And I have a plea for all you photoshoppers out there, please Shield us from doing the same thing with Michael Chiklis’ face. My eyes couldn’t handle it.

Be careful what you Tweet about celebs because it hurts them! |

Jimmy Kimmel Live brought us the the 5th edition of Mean Tweets and the celebrities’ feelings are just as hurt as they ever were. This time the tears flowed from Jason Biggs, Kevin James, Chris O’Donnell, Sharon Stone, Dennis Quaid, Dean Norris, Kevin Bacon and Julia Louis-Dreyfus and you can tell they were really broken up by it.
You know what Mean Tweets has taught me that if you are going to bad mouth celebrities, make sure they aren’t on Twitter!

Dean Norris aka Big Jim has gotten so used to being trapped Under the Dome, that now he travels with his own personal dome to be under.
To find out why he likes it so much tune into CBS at 10p to see who he kills next in his own sadistic way.
BTW you Time Warner subscribers will be happy to know that CBS and the cable company have finally reached an agreement and the Eye should be back on your TVs as you read this.

Under the Dome gives birth to a powerful episode tonight! |

Tonight at 10p on CBS the first baby is born Under the Dome. What comes with life? Death and there will be death, so have the tissues ready because it will be a sad one.
Ollie* (Leon Rippy) is not happy with the little kickbacks that Big Jim (Dean Norris) has given him for his water, so he decides to take what he wants. That will anger Big Jim and you don’t want to piss him off. What will the Selectman do to retaliate?
Then there are the Dundee boys who are causing havoc in Chester’s Mills. Last week (yesterday in the Dome) they killed Rose** (Beth Broderick) and tried to rape Angie (Britt Robertson), and they seem like they are uncontrollable. Will the police finally get hold of them before they kill again? Can Deputy Linda (Natalie Martinez) and Junior (Alexander Koch) arrest them or will the Dundees show them who runs the town now?
Julia’s (Rachelle Lefevre) neighbor goes into early labor and they need to find a doctor to deliver her baby. Alice (Samantha Mathis) is the only person who can do it, but she needs her insulin. Will she be able to deliver the baby or is she too sick to do it?
Finally Norrie (Mackenzie Lintz) and Joe (Colin Ford) find something that could be the power source of the Dome. Is it?
You will just have to tune in to this game changing episode to find out the answers to all of the above.
* In the book Ollie Dinsmore is a 14 year old boy, who loses his whole family after the Dome comes down on Chester’s Mill. He’s not an older man hijacking the town’s water supply. In fact, water was never an issue in the book.
** Rose was one of the very few survivors when the book ends.
