Upfronts: CBS is back in business with Turteltaub

Jon Turteltaub has landed a new CBS series, ‘Harper’s Island,’ about a group of friends who meet on an island off Seattle for a destination wedding.

It’s described as a murder mystery. We wonder if Turteltaub, who is also directing the series, will have the wedding guests throw peanuts, just in case the drama starts on shaky ground. Turteltaub’s last venture was ‘Jericho.’

It is produced by CBS Paramount.
