Stephen King Goes to Haven
The show will be called Haven and it takes place in a "spooky town in Maine where cursed folk live normal lives in exile. When those curses start returning, FBI agent Audrey Parker is brought in to keep those supernatural forces at bay -- while trying to unravel the mysteries of Haven."
Scott Shepherd will serve as showrunner and executive produce with Lloyd Segan and Shawn Piller. These men were executive producers on The Dead Zone for the USA Network. The show was on the air for six seasons and went off the air in 2008.
Sam Ernst and Jim Dunn are writing the pilot. They also worked on The Dead Zone.
E1 has agreed to produce 13 episodes of Haven. Production of the show is slated to start in the next six months.
The Colorado Kid novella was published in 2005.

"The Langoliers" wasn't really altered too much.
And yes, this new series does sound a lot like "Twin Peaks" (mainly season two).

Every book he has come out with is altered by either tv or film, the Dead Zone was the only one that I truly liked. I sure hope it'll be good.
It does sounds like Twin Peaks.

I haven't read the book, but from what Wikipedia says, "The Colorado Kid" was just a straight murder mystery with no supernatural or fantasy elements. It sounds like this new series is very loosely based on it. In fact, it sounds like a totally new idea, which is why I'm confused as to why they are even mentioning "The Colorado Kid" at all.
