How will THAT work?! Candy Crush is being made into a new TV show

Ah lads, is this going a little OTT? 

Soon you're going to be able to play Candy Crush while watching Candy Crush.

CBS is creating a Candy Crush TV show where two people must use their "wits and physical agility to compete on enormous, interactive game boards featuring next generation technology to conquer Candy Crush and be crowned the champions."

According to the president of CBS Entertainment Glenn Geller, it's all about experiencing the rush that the game brings.

"We are huge fans of Candy Crush and, like so many others, we know the 'rush' of advancing to the next level of the game," he said in a statement.

"We're excited to work with Lionsgate and King to adapt one of the world's most popular and entertaining game franchises for television and make it available to its massive, passionate fan base who can watch and play along at home."

No premiere date has been set yet, and while we might watch, we won't be doing it with two screens on the go! Talk about Candy Crush overload…
