Comparing 'Under The Dome' To 'The Simpsons Movie' Dome

The Battle Of The Domes

Three weeks ago, on CBS's hit Under the Dome, a dome was dropped on the fictional town of Chester's Mill and America's nonfictional hearts. However, this wasn't our first run-in with a dome. Just six summers ago, The Simpsons Movie dropped a dome on Springfield. This is not a new observation — it was first discussed when the book on which the show is based was published in 2009. Yet, it's hard not to think of The Simpsons Movie when watching UTD. (It's also hard not to think, This town sure has opinions about local radio.) So we thought we'd break down the two domes (not literally, of course — sorry, you're still stuck in a dome, Chester's Millers) and how they are similar and not.
