In 2019, Stephen King openly voiced his disappointment with the overall series on Twitter, and expressed hope for a reboot series with Hulu.
In the novel, a news helicopter crashes into the dome. That helicopter has the CBS logo on it (current home to the series).
The series is based on Stephen King's novel "Under the Dome". In his afterword, King says he first started the novel with 75 pages in 1976, then set it aside until 2007-2009.
The show was cancelled 18 August 2015, ending with its third season.
Joe is "addicted to the graphic novels of Brian K. Vaughn" in the novel. Brian K. Vaughn became the creator and writer of the TV series.
