Jericho

overall I found it interesting enough to keep watching. Its not the kind of show I would ever buy the DVDs or write fan fiction about...but its fun enough to keep watching.
 
I have started watching this i have found it pretty interesting. Dark,apocalyptic stuff i like.

Jake is pretty mysterious how he can do alot of things like he is some specialist for a drifter.

So far i have only watched the first two eps but i hope it keeps being this interesting.
 
After having finished the entire season, I have mixed feelings. It did pick up around episode 7 and onwards, and in some ways I think they did good bringing back the show after cancelling it half-way through the season, but unfortunately it really ran out of steam towards the season finale, with the last three episodes being almost painful to watch.

It's a shame, because there really was a lot of potential in the entire concept, but they should have toned down the focus on the bombing plot and the people behind it. Watching the shaping of a post-apocalyptic America was intriguing to watch.

Perhaps they can redeem themselves in the second season, if there ever is one.
 
Have to agree with Hypes views on this. I also watched the whole series and thought it did become interesting half way through and had some good episodes but was left feeling rather disappointed at the ending. Word from the US is that the show was cancelled at the end of Season 1, much to the annoyance of many fans. Said fans then voiced their displeasure to the network in some numbers only for the network to change it's mind :eek:and commission a number of additional episodes (a shortened season 2 if you like). However, unless these episodes are something exceptional i can't see me continuing with it and would think its long term future is as bleak as the world it portrays.
 
Its a shame when an interesting series likes this becomes a fan favorite it must get canceled.

All the crappy shows just seem to go on forever.....
 
Personally, I think "Jericho" is one of the best shows on television (I haven't watched "Lost" in years, so I can't state an opinion on that). Yeah, the sappy lessons were pretty bad, but they were only in the first half of Season 1. I remember the last half being captivating the entire time and I was utterly confused why they would even consider cancelling the show. To each their own, but I have to give Jericho a lot of credit--they boldly went where most TV shows never go (a.k.a, into a non-crime, non-reality show realm). :)
 
The sappy lessons didnt bother me at all cause frankly thats soo american that you are use to it by now.....


The rest of the show is very creative and interesting. I got more of the first season that i ever did of the crappy and ultra overrated stuff called Lost....
 
I watched the pilot episode for Jericho on the internet a few months after it came out and it was really good. It was pretty intriguing and interesting and it was very good as far as character development. It is kind of a morbid theme for a show though so you have to be willing to follow it through all the way. I just didn't follow it any further cuz I just didn't have the time and willingness to follow another show. My favorite show always has been and always will be the 4400 and I just didn't have time for another show.
 
I really thought this was canceld, but actally it's coming back, Due to fans. Well think of the bright side, the actors still have a job.

I watched alot of the first season, missing episodes here and there and if not great it was entertaining enough. In some ways I'll be more looking forward to what is aired as season 2 knowing that its not got a long shelf life. Hopefully they might try and actually tell a story arch without needing to keep adding endless twists and turns just so that they can keep the show going as long as the ratings hold out.
 
I'm quite happy its coming back, one of the best shows I saw in 2006. it just shows how when fans combine together and tell these excecutives that they are not happy of cancelling a good show such as Jericho. It makes people sit up and take notice.

Here in Australia it ran on a FTA Station that decided it was no longer good enough to contiune showing it because it had been cancelled which ticked off many viewers down under as they have 8 episodes to show till the end of Series 1. In desperation I have had to get the rest from the net.

Looking Forward to Series 2! :cool:
 
I agree, it is one of the best shows on TV. When they cancelled it, I was happy to buy some nuts and mess with CBS. Good thing they donated them to a good cause and brought the show back, even for a midseason.
 
i'm looking forward to this, app if the season looks good, they will extend to a full season. what i wonder is, i'm watching here, in the uk, cbs have stated that they will extend to a full season if there is enough interest, but i can't show my interest to them from here (not by WATCHING at any rate), so how will they know the program has so much popular support outside of the states? (just come off browsing a coupl'a petition sites, and it does seem popular)
 
I absolutely loved the first series - damn glad they're bringing back for a 2nd season.
 
When is Jericho scheduled to come back? Sometime in February (does the 22nd sound right)?
 
Ive been watching this for a while, not sure how many series there are , but Ive enjoyed what ive seen so far. Cant help but wonder though , where is it going?
 
Okay, I'm just gonna put it out there, but I absolute love the new series of Jericho. God, this really rocks above all those other mundane crime drama TV shows. I seriously cannot understand why people haven't caught on to it.

For all those interested, its on Tuesday nights at 10:00 PM EST. You really should watch it. It's a geat show.
 
I really liked Jericho because it was totally different than other shows about heroes if evil times. Jericho authors were very brave if they implemented those conspiracy plots about US organizations creating holocaust in own country. 5 stars for that.

I must admit there were numerous factical nonsences.

I remember a farm guy who told something like: "My corn field is ok, that radioctive water was not able to to get inside of plants:), i am giving my corn to my sister and she is fine."
I am sure his field will shine but after all... this series was very good.

I heard CBS got 6 millions of nuts in letters from fans after cancellation.
