So last night I went to a screening of CBS’s upcoming thriller series Harper’s Island and it is better than thought it was going to be…and I had a feeling it was going to be really good! Also at the screening CBS previewed the corresponding webseries Harper’s Gold that premiered today!!!
HARPER’S ISLAND is a 13-episode murder mystery about a group of family and friends who travel to a secluded island for a destination wedding. They’ve come to laugh… to love… and, though they don’t know it… to die. As the wedding festivities begin, friendships are tested and secrets exposed as a murderer claims victims, one by one, transforming the wedding week of fun and celebration into a terrifying struggle for survival. Abby Mills, whose mother was killed on the island by a homicidal maniac’s rampage seven years ago, journeys home for the first time since the horrific event for the wedding of her best friend, Henry Dunn. Henry, the boy next door, is marrying the woman of his dreams, Trish Wellington, a beautiful and wealthy heiress. But as the wedding week begins, people start dying. Every episode, someone is killed. Wedding guests and island locals, every person is a suspect. No one is safe. No one can be trusted. By the end of the 13 episodes, all questions will be answered, the killer will be revealed and only a few will survive.
Haprer’s Globe is the newspaper of island and Robin has just accepted a job there. She will be helping us get a little more knowledge of what happened all those years ago and what is going on now.
Harper’s Island and Harper’s Globe will be the first show and webseries that will interact with each other in TV history. Characters from the show will be on the webseries and vice versa. This a great idea and I can’t wait to see how it all plays out!!! There are 16 Harper’s Gold webisodes that start today and a new one will be posted every Wednesday until the end of the show’s first season run. If you do the math that is 3 more than the show that starts in 3 weeks from tomorrow on April 9th on CBS at 10p on Thursdays after CSI!!!
Harper’s Island stars the extremely talented Matt Barr, Cameron Richardson and Adam Campbell!!! All of which I interviews with, that I will be posting in the upcoming weeks!!!
