Updated 06/05/07 11:56 PM CST USA: JERICHO Reborn!? Many Sources Now Say Resurrection Is Nigh!!
Merrick again...
THIS ARTICLE in the LA Times says the current notion is to bring JERICHO back for eight episodes, with the hope/intent of continuing the series beyond the initial eight.
Part of the CBS resurrection's success will depend on how JERICHO performs when evaluated via a new business paradigm...
What's more, CBS no longer has to depend solely on primetime broadcast plays for its revenue. Between DVR playback ("Jericho" added nearly 10% more viewers when DVR figures were counted) and the now broadly accepted practice of streaming shows across the Net, CBS could try to make "Jericho" the poster child for a new business model.
says THIS ARTICLE in Variety.
The network is said to have options on all actors, but deals need to be modified to reflect the unusual timing and size of the order. Proposed budget reductions would lead to some of "Jericho's" characters not returning for the abbreviated second season.
...says THIS ARTICLE in Hollywood Reporter.
Closer and closer.
This may be a really interesting time for television. Perhaps in the future, series like JERICHO, FIREFLY, and an enormous slew of others (please don't be mad at me for not listing your favorite canceled show...it's been a tremendously long day and I'm damn tired) might be saved by adapting similar cross platform models. New frontiers & new perspectives, so to speak. Exciting.
ORIGINAL ARTICLE BELOW. More as more comes in...
Merrick here...
From this update, newly posted at TV Guide's website:
Multiple sources are telling me that CBS is this close to sealing a deal to bring Jericho back for at least eight episodes, possibly at mid-season.
[EDIT]
It's now just a matter of signing the actors to new deals and, according to one insider, finding a new soundstage to house the show's sets.
E! Online echoes this information!
IT IS CRITICAL TO REMEMBER THAT THIS INFORMATION HAS YET TO BE OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED, although...considering the source....I'd say things are looking shiny.
A strong recommendation for fans of the series: do not pause, hesitate, or waver in your efforts to save JERICHO. If negotiations are actually / still under way, there's likely still room for matters to spin apart.
MORE INFO AS AS MORE COMES IN!!! I'll be out & unable to access the site for a few hours tonight - 5:30pm - 8:30pm(ish) CST USA. Other than that, I'll be here...waiting with baited breath.
I get chills thinking about this story coming to pass...

and now we'll never get that moment back
-
I dont.
-
God Damnit, if a show has to get a second chance, it sure as hell shouldn't be this one. Bring me back my Veronica Mars!!!
-
what poo.
-
After giving it numerous tries, it comes across as hokey and derivative, circa 90's era CBS.
-
Save KP!
-
Send Cornballers to Fox.
-
...the nuts worked? I watched the first season for kicks. The show is in the definite guilty pleasure range quality wise. However, TV basically sucks; and I don't feel like getting roped in by something only to have it cancelled after one season. If it comes back I guess I'll watch it; but it will depend on the night and the timeslot. I'm half expecting the execs will do something really stupid, like put it on opposite Lost...
-
Bout time you fucking 'mericans done something right, cant wait to see this show rapped up
-
Not really but how wild would it be for the Camdens to come back from the dead AGAIN?
-
Im glad some fans have a few more episodes with characters they love and that they had lost. I love it when fans get their way. This is awesome.
-
This show has a lot of potential. And Now that they got the "origin" episodes out of the way there is a lot of room to go do some creative things. The problem is will they.
-
Exactly. Never watched it, but I love to see passion for something rewarded. Now if only someone would be champing at the bit to re-start Firefly once all traces of Fox's grubby paws are off of it.
-
Wish we could have saved Angel...I really like Jericho. Was it the best show on TV? no, but it was unique and posed a very interesting question; 'what would you do if the world ended today?'. It is possible to like a show, even if you think it can be sub-par compared to others. I love 'Heroes' and 'Lost', but I also love 'Smallville' and 'The 4400' too...it's the Tee Vee...not Shakespeare!
-
Geek Show + Ribs + Cancellation = Free Ribs! I think I'll cancel the show every season.
-
...could it be because it sucked? Sure. Could it be because it might have been an okay show, but nobody felt like watching it? Sure. My money's on the former.
-
That nut thing actually worked
-
PETITION JOSS WHEDON TA BRING HIS AZZ BACK TA DA' BOOB TUBE TO RESCUE IT FROM DIS ME-DEE-OCA BOLLSHIT. GIVE ME WHEDON OR GIVE ME DEATH! RECOGNIZE!
-
Yeah all TV shows that get cancelled suck, and all movies that aren't blockbusters are bad. Makes sense.
-
take the place of that Angel rip-off CBS will take off the air after 3 episodes....
-
Great show, great fans, great news!
Haven't any of you haters had favorite shows get yanked out from under you? This is terrific news for everyone. If you fight hard enough for a show the networks will listen. -
Mr. In-The-Know - you were wrong. So Suck my balls. That is all!
-
Skeet Skeet Skeet mahfacka!
-
Veronica Mars DID get a second chance (a few second chances actually), and with it they delivered the pure-shit 3rd season. It's over.
-
The "Diff'rent Strokes" spin-off "Hello, Larry" was an unheralded masterwork of its time, it needs to come back NOW. (But "Veronica Mars", now that had to go.)
-
Hopefully they will finish out the story in the 8 eps because I think another full season isn't in the cards.
-
WONDERFALLS SUCKED! It aired what 3 times before getting canned? Dead like me was ok, but neither show is ANYTHING like Jericho. Your shows are dead and ours is back .....ahahaha HOW YOU LIKE THEM APPLES FUCKAS!
-
Cynical me says that the producers will try to drag things out in a bid to get a full season renewal, stringing along viewers and generally annoying the CBS executives in the process.
-
that the show will last past 8 more eps. CBS wants the show gone. They are just trying to make the fans happy. They will bring it back...CBS will say "See we do care" and then stick it in a shit slot. It'll still have 8-9 million viewers and then they will cancel it again. I'm just happy we got it back on the air. Ive got no delusions that it will last.
-
In the history of fans rallying to the cause of a canceled show, this will become the one success story? Fucking Jericho? Are you kidding me? Jericho? Good god. Firefly fans will cry many a nights.
-
Crap writing. Crap apocalypse. Crap plots. Unless they're swapping out the ex-soap opera hacks that have been grinding this show into the ground, I'll expect it to be dead before season 3.
-
And Blow Job and the Bear please.
-
...Mwahaha!
-
Why are so many people so keen on saving this show? I gave it a shot, I watched the first half of the season and even went back for some of the second half, but it never got interesting. They never knew how to handle such an interesting premise.
-
not Firefly, not Angel, not Veronica Mars, not the OC. I like Jericho in a minimal kinda way, but i can think of many, better shows that were cancelled before their time that deserve a second chance more than Jericho.
-
CBS should make it clear to the producers that they're not coming back. So either the producers should wrap it up, or if they don't, then it's not the network's fault. They could now be holding off on releasing a Jericho DVD box set until the status of this mid-season possibly and the number of episodes ordered is cleared up.
-
Where was this Intranet when Firefly was canceled? We could have used them back then.
-
I mean, good for Jericho fans, I'm not really type of guy to shit on a show just because I don't like it, but damnit, there are so many other shows that deserved a chance to wrap up over the years and didn't... What makes this case so special?
-
The worst show on TV gets resurrected while the one of the best ones, Veronica Mars, gets cancelled. Total BS.
-
As fashionable as it seems to be hating on every show in existence on this site, some people actually liked it and would very much like to see some kind of conclusion to the story. It was smartly written, well acted and held my attention for the full season. Shouldn't the point of this whole Jericho saga be that if you actually expend some energy rallying againt a network that you find ending shows prematurely is wrong, then shows you actually enjoy may survive to conclude their storylines.
-
this is 8 eps to see the ratings....to bring it back for future seasons or to let it go for good.
-
Are you insane? The third season had some of the best writing the show ever saw. I would have liked a season-long mystery, but the rape and murder minis were satisfying in their own way. VM's finale was the show at the VERY top of its game.
-
Sure, Apocolypse-Hallmark-style is goofy.But goofy can be fun.
-
but I'm happy for the Jericho fans.
-
I'll be very pleased for JERICHO fans if this comes to pass, because stories should always be told through to their conclusion, not cut short half way through. I just wish HBO would have done the same thing to finish off the CARNIVALE story.
-
I actually really enjoyed the ;Weevil -centric' episode also. Pretty classic.
-
How about reincarnating it. It had such an interesting premise that got blown to shit because CBS didn't have the balls to show a realistic post-attack United States, and they also blew the whole premise by having what appears to be fellow Americans right-wingers nuking our own cities. The whole series got bogged down into a "guess who's fucking who this week on Jericho" and the whole series became impossible to watch.
-
but i have a hard time believing it's "smartly written, well acted and held my attention for the full season". i like Jericho, which is to say i like the concept and some of the plot lines and ashley scott is easy on the eyes. But it's not well-written: most of the time it's a loosely assembled bag of cliches. And it's not well-directed: you've only got to compare the performance that Gerald McRaney gave in Deadwood to his performance on Jericho to see the difference. And it's got the cheesiest production values: half the scenes look like they were B-footage from a daytime soap. I like Jericho because any show that opens with a bunch of nuclear blasts and deals with the aftermath deserves some leeway. But it isn't a great show. I doubt it's even a good show.

What, do these critics just have the DishFamily package, with just 40 channels, 2 of which aren't named CW or SciFi? Kristen Bell, Lauren Graham and Battlestar Galactica were ass-fracked. AGAIN.
-
and I'll be a happy camper.
-
Not that I really need a reason.
-
Time to start mailing tons of strawberries to Fox for Firefly...
-
I was surprised they killed off the Dad. The war with the neighboring town was a cool idea. Also, that CIA/terrorist guy was climbing in his Locke-like coolness factor. They killed off that stupid love triangle, and started showing us what was going on in the world. The potential was surely building...
-
Because it is only going to whet appetites to bring it back in the new form.
-
I mean, I love Jericho. Watched it every week, got to know the characters and enjoyed it immensely. I am curious as to why so many post here are asking "why are they bringing back this crap?" This makes no sense, why do you care? You didn't like it, you aren't watching it, then don't watch. All I know is that apparantly whatever show you wanted back didn't have the fans to support it. Jericho had fans that supported in enough even in the face of cancellation. So stop your stupid incessant whining, and shut the fuck up.
-
Even the geography of this faux-Kansas makes no sense. One of the flattest states in the union, and it apparently has only one bridge that, if blown up, cuts off access to the whole town (including, apparently via off-road army vehicles. Guess they must have terraced fields or something). And where in Kansas can you see mountains, let alone a mushroom cloud over Denver? And don't get me started on the show's other massive problems (ignoring the effects of radiation, ignoring the oncoming winter, etc.).
-
M*A*S*H was brought back. It was called AfterMASH. Ran in the early 80's. IT SUCKED! Wanting is often better than having.
-
I only watched the pilot of Jericho and while it didn't strike a chord with me, I wouldn't judge it based on just that episode. But I certainly wish I were reading this about Veronica Mars instead. But I would venture to bet that the reason this is getting the second chance that Firefly, VM, Angel, and other quality (possibly better) shows didn't is that I believe Jericho's ratings were considered moderate as opposed to low. Maybe not really enough for an expensive ensemble show but moderate nevertheless. Anyway losing Veronica and the confirmation that BSG's next season will be its last makes for a disappointing television landscape in my taste; all I will have left is Lost which really moved uphill and 24 which really moved down. I only think Heroes is okay; the characters aren't very involving for me. The only new show that sounds promising next season is Pushing Daisies; I'm skeptical about David Greenwalt's Angel rehash.
-
Me and the Chimp! I think there is more to explore there. Gary Marshall seems to be begging for work right now too!!!
-
I did my part. This show definitely deserves it. VM and Black Donnellys suck so they don't deserve shit.
-
Jericho is a great show! Easily my top 3 network shows after Lost and Heroes. I still don't get the haters. Is the new talkback trend bashing shows that don't deserve it? I'm sorry the CW/WB and Fox are a bunch of douchebags who can't give a show a chance. Maybe if Jericho's a success this time, a stupid cancellation won't happen to the next good show. Think about it before you blindly hate.
-
true, and mash also ran for countless seasons. And aftermash. I was making a joke that I thought was funny. We have not missed any magical moments with the 4077.
-
beats another hour of reality tv. i'll actually watch 8 hours of jericho.
-
I've decided it's ok to like it. And I am no longer ashamed In fact, I have begun to pity those who don't. Good day.
-
now lets lobby for it to not suck like most of the episodes in the first season.
-
Lets start sending the networks bullets until they bring back Sledge Hammer...BULLETS FIRED FROM GUNS!
-
Can we get a second season for Surface, a conclusion to the Pretender, and how about that Faith The Vampire Slayer spinoff?
-
So most of these haters are pissed that there isn't an effort to save THEIR shows. Well get off yer fat pimply asses and start petitionatin'.
-
Weather you like the show or not you have to admit that a series with a conclusion is more valuable on DVD, than one without. A series like Invasion could have benifited from such a move.
-
You've been crying to be heard like the little fucking bitch you are for weeks about this show. Ohhhh I watched a few and hated it...ohhh i watched a few more and hated them....ohhhh.... If you hate the show then fucking do something else. I think its great everyone else is pissed their shows didn't get picked up. You know what the problem is. They DIDNT do what Jericho fans DID! We brought our show back even if all you fuckers in here hate it. Its back and your shows are still dead. So keep whining away about how much you hate it Bacci. Or how other shows are better. You may always hate it and the others shows may be better. But ours is here and yours aren't. Thats pretty much end of discussion.
-
I love all these haters who piss, whine and moan that THEIR show (Veronica Mars, Serenity, whatever) is not being resurrected, so life is so unfair and it sucks that Jericho may be on again - cry me a river, mofos - I couldn't get into VM or Serenity (please note, I did love BTVS) - but where were you when those were being axed - did you write letters and organize? Or did you think that just posting your rants on AICN was enough - HA! I would love to see Deadwood, Dead Like Me, Carnivale and the fucking original Trek with a newly rejuvenated cast incl Shat and Nimoy to come back - but it ain't gonna happen... HOWEVER, if you get one of your shows back (be it Veronica Mars or Chips), I won't waste my time crying that you got your show - I just won't watch like the first time 'round -- who fucking cares? Life's too short to bag and diss on people that got their cake and you feel like somebody pissed in your latte - too bad - either organize or shut the fuck up - and by the way, if you hate Jericho, we who like don't give an irradiated rat's ass what you think - go play with your Kristen Bell action figure - BTW, anyone else ever make the connection that VM was a rip-off of Smallville's Chloe? Just wondering.
-
I've read a couple of posts on this Jericho board and laugh my ass off at the bitches who whine about how their favorite shows should be on instead of Jericho. Well, I've got news for ya: People actually care about Jericho, wrote in, sent nuts, made videos on YouTube about their hate for CBS for Jericho's cancellation, etc, etc! What did you do to save your show? Bitch and complain on fan sites? LOL You guys need to get on the short bus out of here and go play with your girlie toys. I guess mature television isn't up your alley, since all you watch are girlie shows. Anybody who watches the OC, Veronica Mars, and Angel must something wrong in the head....MY GOD HOW CAN YOU WATCH SUCH PATHETIC POP-CULT DRECK?!?! I'm with OtisSpofford and tristeele! ___KNEEL___ before Z0D

Networks listen to money, they don't listen to whining
by hubert_cumberdale
Lets look at the tally here. Jericho fans put their money where thier mouth is... pony up $50,000 worth of nuts sent to CBS and every media outlet that mattered. Ponys up a few thousand bucks to take out a full page ad in Variety magazine petitioning for their show. Pony up another couple thousand to 2 or 3 other advertising campaigns. AND gain over 100,000 signatures on the online petitions.
Now what are the fans of the shows like Firefly and VM doing? Whining on message boards. That's it. The Firefly petitions can't even break 15k signatures. Veronica Mars stalling out at 25k signatures.
Face it, those shows just didn't have the same fanbase as Jericho. That's why Jericho is coming back and those shows aren't. -
I love these guys and I love reading all their bitter rants on this site. Its like having a family member over for the Holidays who gets tanked and spews his rage on Grandma for not getting the Stretch Armstrong for X-Mas back in '78, but here in Aintitcool its every frickin' day- Michael Bay sucks, Brett Rattner is a hack, Shia LeBouf is a little bitch, etc.- this site has some of the angriest, bitter Brownshirt motherfuckers on earth and I love it! I'm glad Jericho is coming back, even if its for only 8 episodes. I'm hoping the ratings spike up and it gets renewed for the next 7 fricking years! The Jericho haters are pissed off now, but can you imagine if it comes back to high ratings...OMG! THEY ARE GOING TO GO ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY INSANE! And the great thing is, all the venom will be spewed right here for my entertainment pleasure!
-
Little Bitch can't take it when its thrown back at yah. To- Thevision well said hehe. I love getting punks like Bacci40dicksinhismouth pissed off. That idiot has been spouting off for weeks about Jericho. He's probably still pissed they canceled his favorite show way back in the day. I think it was called Homeboys In Space. Give it up Bacci ITS NOT COMING BACK. Dont hate our show cause that piece of shit tanked. ZOD & Hubert - YOUR BOTH THE MAN!!!! Long live the 8eps of Jericho.
-
Back in '05, TrekUnited raised over 3 million dollars to show fans would be willing to pony up for a fifth season. I think the goal was 26 million to pay for 22 episodes. It wasn't going to happen even if the goal was reached due to legal concerns but the fans put their money where the mouth is to show they were serious and CBS owned UPN still said fuck you Enterprise fans. When that didn't pan out and Paramount announced the creation of direct-to DVD division, Trekunited sent letters and fans offered to pre-order for an Enterprise DVD movie- the response was NO to an Enterprise direct to DVD but would you buy "Save the last Dance 2?" Granted, Enterprise pissed away first 2 seasons, went for dark action in Season 3 with mixed results but came back with a true prequel in Manny Coto's run of Season 4- too little, too late. Enterprise went from 13 million viewers to barely 3 million. Jericho still had 8 to 9 million viewers against American Idol and that's not counting DVR- it deserves to be brought back, money or not.
-
Many shows that deserved being saved way more than this mediocre show were not. Is this because of lack of fan support? Don't think so. For instance, the Save Angel campaign was huge - they even raised money for charity, for christsakes. Full-page ads, the works. The primary reason they're giving this a second chance is the network. It's crusty CBS, who were so surprised that some people (and when I say some people, I mean people under the age of 70) actually cared about one of their shows, they sat up and took notice. As much as I hate Variety and their idiotic writing style, I think they hit the nail on the head. CBS does not have 'buzz' shows. ABC has Lost, NBC has Heroes. If this were any other network, we would not be having this discussion.
Of course, I'm all for closure, and I hope they find a way to make those 8 episodes count, but am I the only one that thinks Swingtown may be more interesting? I just don't think there's a lot of life left in this thing.
On the other hand, I hope that Barbee is right about this being a sign of a paradigm shift in ratings, taking DVR and online into account. Anything that works towards burying the Nielsen dinosaur is a good thing. Maybe this resurrection is a good thing for all buzzworthy tv that suffer from poor writing. Now if only there was a better poster child. I miss you already, Veronica (Sniff!) -
Obviously the fans are capable of this sort of work. Is it because they've lived in fear of cancellation every year, and they just got tired? Disappointing either way. And stop saying "Let's get back Arrested Development". I loved the show to death, but it HAD the option to come back. Showtime would be airing it's 5th season right now, but HURWITZ said no. It was his choice. Now granted, some time has passed, and after his new pilot wasn't picked up, his thoughts may have changed, but basically, we could have had new AD, but Hurwitz was against it.
-
I meant to say 'buzzworthy tv that suffers from poor ratings.' I'm not kidding, that was actually a mistake. I guess my true feelings for Jericho just came out.
-
and the hybrid doesn't have enough viewers. According to EW the merger hasn't increased ratings like they hoped. Smallville is going strong and helping Supernatural, WWE still has its audience but that's about it. CBS and Warners is concerned CW will never make a profit and may shitcan the entire network in two years. There was interest from other networks in Jericho and I think CW was one of them.
-
bring back Firefly, and Wonderfalls
-
and bring back Veronica Mars, god damn it.... GOD DAMN IT
-
I enjoyed the show, but not enough to take time to lick a stamp or fire off an email.But I do hope its the start of fans defending shows that get cancelled.
-
Didn't know he needed saving.
-
It would be enormously funny (and enjoyable) to have CBS plot the eight episodes centered around Hawkins...and reveal that he never strayed from the conspiracy! He was really the Plan B mop-up man for Baldy and finally delivers his Package to the dumbizens of Jericho, wiping the town out and raising the collective IQ of the state by five points! Then, people could rally around to save a re-imagined show about nuclear zombies after it gets cancelled again!!Oh, wait, this is a CBS show...never mind.
-
YOU'RE ALL WASTING YOUR TIME AND EFFORT! JERICHO WILL NEVER GET A SECOND SEASON! ... MY FAVOURITE SHOW DESERVED TO GET RENEWED MORE THAN THIS ONE! JERICHO WILL NEVER GET A 3RD SEASON! Times change, but the little bitches keep on whinin'...
-
Yeah it got off to a soapy start, but someone listened and the last half of the last series was on fire. Thats why we're all going NUTS trying to get it back.
-
I've been waiting 20+ years to see that one resolved.
-
Regardless of your feelings for the show, if enough viewers voice their opinion, then FUTURE shows you love (let's face it, it's too late for any show that was off before this season - that means no Angel, Firefly, etc...) could have DVR and alternative media outlets functioned into their ratings, thereby saving them from an early demise. Advertisers must LOVE it when you watch a show through the network website, because you can't fast-forward through the commercials. Whether you like the show or not, we could set a trend here, people, and this bodes well for all of us. FYI, I do think that Jericho really picked up steam in the second half of the season, and deserves another shot. Rag on CBS all you want, but who else even considered doing a drama about a large-scale nuclear attack in the US? I don't count Jeremiah.
-
Here's something new - why don't you take all the pilots for shows that you didn't pick up and make them available on your website to watch? Babylon Fields, for example - I was kinda looking forward to that one, even if it was described as a zombie "dramedy." All it costs is bandwidth, and if the network execs see that 15 million people went to the website and watched it, then maybe they might reconsider your opinion on not putting it in the lineup.
-
There's an awful lot of Roman Empire left to cover and an awful lot of people left for Pullo to kill and dismember in various ways.
THIRTEENTH!!!
-
That spec ops dude is pro!
-
I'm probably proving that I don't trawl Jericho talkbacks much by finding that heard-first-time funny. 'Course, if you did just coin it, kudos to you, sir!
-
I liked this show. I understand some of the negativity towards the naff parts of it, but a lot of the story was cool
-
......and im not even American!!!!
And to all the people who dont like the show, why the hell are you posting here in the first place? Bunch of clefts, thats what you are -
Sure Fox cancelled the damn thing. But Shotime offered them a 2 season, 26 episode commitment to continue the show and Hurwitz allegedly turned it dow.
-
I would often think that too while watching Jerhico, it's time for black Jack Bauer to kick some ass and blow shit up, and he did.
-
That's perfect. Give whoever invented that a cigar.
-
C'mon now folks... Curtis Manning from 24 was Black Bauer back on day 4. Right up until White Bauer offed him early in day 6. R.I.P. Black Bauer.
-
Come on NBC!
-
I always like Miracles with Skeet, but Jericho is a better overall show. Very Red Dawn. Bring it back.
-
that show leaves Jericho in the dust! - should have been the next X-Files, instead of Supernatural.
-
also, Bring Em Back Alive with Bruce Boxleitner, Tales of the Golden Monkey with Stephen Collins and an all new V mini-series!!!! Cool.
-
All haters need to realize the reasons for JERICHO's return - a dedicated fanbase and a network which needed some buzz. Whining about other cancelled shows won't change the fact that they're cancelled, only makes you seem stupid for not realizing the opportunity that JERICHO has given fans. Like the call for a VM campaign, this is akin to FIREFLY DVD sales leading to SERENITY, or FAMILY GUY returning - networks are starting to realize that word-of-mouth and fanbases are key to not falling in the ratings (note to Silverman).
And I've seen the SWINGTOWN pilot. A drama about promiscuous singles broadcast on network television is everything it couldn't be. Give the set back to the citizens of Jericho, I WANT HAWKINS TO STOP THE TRAIN WITH A TANK -
that show rocked - way cooler than Tron
-
C'mon, it's only been 24 years and Desi Arnaz, Jr. and Chuck Wagner gotta eat.
-
Cancel Dirt!
-
So, what's Cursor doing these days anyway?
-
Jun 06, 2007 1:16:10 PM CDT
Yeah, I also want Hawkins to stop the train with a tank

Shame Johnston had to go. That man had some big, mayoral balls to be sure. We all know Gray is Chamberlin to Johnstons Churchill. NUTS I say!!
-
Lou Gossett Jr. gotta eat!
-
Or how about Jack of Trades, both great shows
-
Too bad we couldn't bring that back
-
They should air this every Christmas.
-
did the fans get their money back when the show didn't get renewed?
-
they already did use it....
-
you know you want to.

Stepfanie Kramer gotta eat.
