Hello everyone and welcome to the Stephen King cast, one man's musings on the works of Stephen King.

Once I reviewed each of his works in the chronological order of publication, but Ka is a wheel, it all goes round again, and here I am once more on the newest phase of this journey,

one to examine each of the endings of the works of Stephen King to determine whether or not King deserves his reputation

for having an inability

to successfully land his endings.

The focus of the podcast

is going to be to examine the climax

following action and resolution

of the endings to each of his novels

and break it down by character themes,

conflict, and plot

to determine whether or not

it meets the criteria of being an objectively

good ending.

I will also weigh in on whether or not I happen to personally, subjectively like the ending.

And today, I am here to discuss the incredibly divisive ending of the novel Under the Dome,

which, by the way, when I started thinking about what I could do

with this podcast after I had gone through all of the chronological order, and I did top ten

lists, and I reviewed some of the movies, and I was just thinking about what to do next, and I

started thinking about all the conversation that was happening and had happened around the endings of his his his books.

I thought a lot about Under the Dome and I thought a lot about how people felt about the ending of Under the Dome and this was one of the reasons why I decided to do it.

So I'm excited to, you know, dive into Under the Dome with all of you today.
