That operatic Days-of-our-Lives shite drove me batshit that I really only watched Jericho during commercials on something else I was watching. I think if watched again this show would suck a little bit more as it was painstaking getting to the interesting plot of the whole thing - too real time. Tivo made it work 'cuz I could get through all that family stuff and back to the Waltons at war. Feed my ADD with Lost style action.

Merrick, don't try to sell this PIECE OF SHIT to people by saying the fate of good shows is hinged on it. If you wanted to start this "campaign", you should have done it during the season when the numbers were below sea level. God I hate the fact that this site is selling this show as if it's the second coming. THE REASON SHOWS LIKE THIS GET CANCELLED IS TO MAKE ROOM FOR BRILLIANT NEW SHOWS. Sure, there is going to be drek every year and every year it gets weeded out. But if networks give slots to mediocre shit like Jericho, it just means less opportunity for new, potentially great shows such as Pushing Daisies, Chuck, Reaper, et. al

jericho is a great show that unlike others kept me coming back for more every week. It's a great idea with a bunch of balls. and besides I can usually keep up with at least 6 great shows a year, but with sopranos falling and all the other cancellations I've had to endure the last 2 years, I needed jericho. alot of other folks need it too, considering the fate that waits us all in the next 10 years, I believe.

DVR, onDemand, internet. I watched all of Jericho via onDemand because it was back-to-back with Lost. (and as much as I enjoyed Jericho, nothing's gonna stop me from watching Lost!) Nielsen ratings have ALWAYS been flawed but they are especially flawed now. Get with the program, and get rid of the bullshit Nielsen ratings system...
The Numbers
by Tommy999
Jun 13th, 2007
01:20:37 AM
The numbers were still "good" after its hiatus, it went up against American Idol and if im not mistaken it finished second to it on a regular basis, not losing too much of its audience aside from the drop similar to Heroes and Lost recieved after their weeks long break. CBS is doing a smart thing by airing the episodes pilot, then the second half of the season thats exactly how ive been watching the show since the season ended. The second half is what all the people who tuned into the pilot signed up for and we got it in the end. Merrick is right,with the whole life in a small kansas town post nuclear attack being a terrible way to sell the show, its like selling Lost as Gilligan's Island or Heroes as My Secret Identity, completely missing the boat on what the show actually is and painting it as unappealing
more like Waltons meet The Postman
by Maniaq
Jun 13th, 2007
01:28:37 AM
Yeah count me as a hanger-on! I liked the pilot and saw A LOT of potential for this story and waited... and waited... and waited for the plot to develop but, you know, they took their time developing the characters instead so I totally can see where people are coming from when they say they didn't have the patience for this show.

Me, I'm a Lost fan so I have patience TO SPARE!

The mid-season break came (I actually thought that was the whole season) and not a lot of those mysteries had really been explored and I found myself still interested in where they would lead so I welcomed the return of the series with Season One Part Two -

- and BAM!! TOTALLY PAID OFF!

Who set off the nukes, what's the deal with Hawkins, the aid drops, the missing husband flashback character (mark my words - he is going to be IMPORTANT!) and some of the Skeet Ulrich character's backstory - all FINALLY brought to light!

And then they get to Bartertown...

Look I might not have the most ratings-friendly taste in the world (I still rate Space:Above and Beyond!) but remember NOT ALL TV SHOWS ARE INSTANTLY BRILLIANT! I can think of at least one uber-mega-huge TV show that had a pretty lacklustre first season, nobody knew what to do with it, the humour had to grow on you, it actually got dropped by a local network and picked up by another in this country - fortuitously for them because that network is STILL reaping the rewards from repeats of a once little-loved show called Seinfeld...

If you believe that the post-apocalyptic vision of Jericho is even fucking remotely close to accurate, I suggest you do some research on "post bomb" Hiroshima and the outlying territories. One of the MANY issues with this show (other than the fact that Skeet Ulrich is the weakest actor in a leading role on television) is that CBS doesn't have the balls to make the design of this show realistic. When Merrick actually does something worthwhile and gets this thing moved to HBO, let me know and I'll watch it again.

There's a lot of definitions of Apocalyptic. The one I'm refering to is: Involving or portending widespread devastation. So, yes, it is. And if you want to throw that word out, fine. Throw it out. This show is set post massive nuclear attack and the costuming/makeup/etc. look like a shitty cross between 7th Heaven and Little House on the Prairie. The design on every level is a failure and I'm sorry, but that precludes this show from ever being successful in my book. Beyond that, how in God's name can anyone on this site defend the acting on this show! It's fucking laughable that this is on network television.

It's wonderful how the Little Guy supposedly persuaded the Big Evil Corporation to capitulate and bring back their beloved show, but the talk about greatness, and selling it as anything but a safe, wholesome, comeback player-type, even entertaining show, is really pushing it.

Sorry, but CBS doesn't set their sights that high. They make mostly bland, conservative shows that serve not to offend, but assure the mass audience that crime in the big bad world can be solved in 42 minutes, and that the bad guys always get caught. High ratings, yes, but high art or grand statements they are not.

Even the revival of the show is being oversold. It was a low-risk maneuver that has gotten CBS lots of good PR, and gives them a safe backup to put into the game should one of the Fall rookies fail. CBS has set some unspecified standard that the seven new episodes must meet, known only to them, so they can just as easily and probably will pull the plug again once they've aired, and the followers will have no further recourse. It was given a second chance, and didn't meet 'expectations.' Given no major cliffhanger to resolve, there will be even less impetus, the show will end, people will move on, and the show will go down in history as the show cheated death.

...from not having much else to watch on the TV right now and withdrawal is painting this show all rose coloured...

Then again, I was able to forgive The Postman, which I reckon has a few parallels ( if only in costume design ;) - and this show doesn't suffer from Kevin Costner having anything to do with it.

Again, I can be pretty patient with these things and this happens to be one show which for me has paid off...

I'm still waiting for Ugly Betty to prove to be worth my time! Hmmm... there really isn't much on!

Episode 11 felt like a new season and I mean that in a good way. And he is right, it did pick up steam after that episode. It was kinda slow but at the same time it did a good job of introducing characters and the situation. After episode 11, man I was looking forward to the next episode. I plan to watch the show in real time to help bring in ratings.

I didn't write, and I sure as fuck didn't spend my good money to buy nuts, but I'm glad the show is back and will continue to watch...but blanket statements on what show is "good or bad" because of your own personal opinion is fucking pathetic. And Chuck, Reaper & Dasies are "brillant"? Really? When excatly the fuck did you catch the first seasons of these shows to give us that opinion?

And MANY MILLIONS MORE THOUGHT IT WAS A PIECE OF SHIT. You know how I know that? Because all of them were watching something else. I'm not basing this on my opinion, I'm basing it on ratings. Even with the dvr numbers included, this show wasn't drawing enough people to pay for it's timeslot. And I've seen everyone of those pilots and there's more quality in those first eps than in the entire 1st season of Jericho. It's Darwin applied to television Darth. I'm not claiming it as my own theory. Several people in this talkback have made the argument that Jericho is better than most of the other shit on tv. Well, to me, that's a horrible reason to save a tv show. Instead, let the shit get cancelled and force the network to put out quality programming. What would be wrong with that?

I watched all of Jericho this year and I like the show. I'm glad it's coming back; and I hope the reruns bring some viewers in.

That said, I reiterate my first question. Is there no love for "Rescue Me?" I see comments from people saying that nothing else is on because it's summer. Do yourselves a favor a watch "Rescue Me." Peter Tolan and Denis Leary write some of the best dialogue on television. The new season starts tonight at 10:00 on FX.

...eehhhh... those last two sentences sounded a little planty... sorry about that.

That sort of Deus ex crap turned me off. And that secret agent guy with the giant satellite dish in his backyard? ...wtf is that nonsense. I watched the first 7 or 8 eps, periodically dropping in to watch a bit here or there when there was nothing else on. I'm intruiged to hear it got better but, I find it hard to believe. We'll see I guess.

So millions not watching = piece of shit. Firefly was shit? Veronica Mars was shit? Brisco County Jr. was shit? Buffy lasted 7 seasons and never once cracked 5 1/2 million viewers. Not every show has to be a mega-hit to survive.
You are right that if a show costs more than it makes it gets canned. But what is soooo fucking wrong with having a show come back for 7 more shows and get another chance. I know it's been wrote many times, but Cheers & The X-Files would have been dead after one season by today's standards.
"Make the networks put out quality shows". By whose fucking standards? I found Jericho to BE a quality show. How could people actually LIKING a show be a bad reason for them to try and save it! If a show is cancelled for lack of viewership that does not mean it sucked. By that theory American Idol & Deal or No Deal are brillant tv shows.

There are two things you're using as means of comparison that don't work. When the WB existed, shows could do 2 million a night and that was fine. It works for channels like SciFi as well with BSG. However, you'll notice that Veronica got shitcanned after the CW was formed and it didn't pull more viewers. The WB was playing to 1/3 of the market. So don't use them as an example, it's not accurate. And look, you can't compare Reality programming and fiction. We wouldn't even be having this conversation if there was no reality tv, because then, there would be plenty of room for all kinds of fictional programming. And yeah...today's standards are fucking ridiculous. It's damn near impossible to keep a show on the air. The only thing we really disagree on is the quality of Jericho. If you like it, great. More power to you. I just think this decision should have been made post dvd sales, ala Family Guy. Anybody can throw a few bucks down for some peanuts. Let's see how many people are rabid enough to go buy the season.

Is that I *know* Jericho isn't a great show. In fact I almost quit watching after I found the first few episodes to be pretty weak. But since I watch it at work and a friend of mine watched with me and he seemed to enjoy it we kept watching. The first half was as people said, soap opera drama bullshit. But when it came back and got a bit more serious I was digging it. To be honest all I wanted was a two hour movie to clear some things up and give me closure and that's why I'm happy it is coming back even if just for 7 episodes. And I will be buying the dvd.
I just didn't like your statement that millions thought it was shit since they were watching something else. I've seen one episode of Friday Night Lights, another show that was close to being dropped, didn't care for it, and I didn't watch anymore. But that doesn't mean I think the show is shit or it should be cancelled to bring in 'brillant' new shows since 'brillant' is all a matter of opinion. I don't think it surviving one more season or Jericho getting another full season (if it does) is gonna be the end of tv as we know it. There will be more bad shows, more average shows, and more great shows in the years to come no matter what happens to Jericho.

The last 5-6 episodes were as good as anything '24' has done in the last 3 seasons. If CBS would sell Jericho like a large scale 24, it might have something....like a full Season 3! EARLY PREDICTION: The "Army" shows up and starts trying to suppress/stop the battle. Some idiots from New Bern return fire and shoot at a gunship. Many NB'ers immediately get to eat some 20mm cannon rounds for breakfast and we're at the first commercial break. War stopped, New Bern shot to shit, and funerals are attended. New President "Evil DHS Guy" has the "Army" group look for Hawkins, etc. If CBS does this right, we should barely have time to catch our breath before racing headlong into something else. Then again, it's CBS, so we could have 30 seconds of shooting followed by 42 minutes of tears and fears, but no action or plot development. I hope they get this right and market it correctly, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Despite it's premise, this show became very predictable early on. I don't like the American vs. American angle at all, and agree that if they had some guts, we'd have seen foreign troops show up at the end of the season finale. I've never understood the fascination with Hawkins, in my book he's a traitor, and they made Jake a pilot, but he still hasn't flown a plane. Maybe in the next 7 episodes, but I don't really think they'll do much more but try and layer onto the conspiracy they've already laid out, which was thin to begin with. I think Americans dealing with an invasion on their own soil would have made a much better premise than yet another "shadow government" conspiracy. Time will tell.

I actually watched the first 10 episodes, but got so bored about the slow nature of the show that I gave up during the break. I got tired of 40 minutes of hometown drama/drivel, and 2 minutes of Who is the Black Guy and Is He Good or Bad? (except for the episode when they go get those medical supplies from another town's hospital. That episode was pretty sweet.) I will watch episode 11, and if it lives up to Merrick's review above, I will continue. Otherwise, sayonara for good.

Yes the first half was much setup - but the payoff I felt was better than the heroes season ender -- This show was the best new show on TV and although everyone has their opinion - those of you who have not seen it - give it a shot.. And what is not talked about is the fact the acting was actually above avg for this kind of fare.. It is a good mixture of survival and possibility... What would you do if you had to do it to survive.. Would you kill the guy that you use to play golf with?

Nice analogy WASPFAN. Personally, my favourite line from the finale was; "We're about to go to war with New Bern, home of the nearest Costco. Nothing you say can surprise me today." I consider myself a big fan of the show, and I agree that the first half of the season was really weak. In the second half, JERICHO definitely came into its own. Still needs improvement, but hopefully now the opportunity is there. Let's make sure we all watch this summer, and maybe even buy the DVD of the first season!
Jericho lost me with the "music" segments!!!!

Those final moments of each early episode, where a breaking artist's song would play over a montage of everyone "coming together" to harvest corn or whatever is what killed the show for me. And the fact that Skeet Ulrich's mouth seems perpetually hanging open. And seriously, are corn-husks enough to protect the corn crop from radioactive fallout???
They should promote like an action show

Stop with the heartwarming stuff. It has that stuff, but it's also an exciting, action packed show.
