Definately reeked of "crappy show on CBS" but I still liked watching it. I'm rather enjoying this past half decade of television, sci fi and hardcore violence has really taken off!
ABC will be showing the unaired episodes of The Nine!

According to TV Guide online, that is. Now that everyone's forgotten about the show. But, it will give people a chance to see Kim Raver not playing a muttering loonie.
...anyone? bueller?

Who the fuck cares? We all know it was a group of probably 20 die hard fans who sent all those nuts to CBS. I watched the first 4 episodes of this show and couldn't stand to watch any more.

Dont judge the show by its first 6 or 7 episodes. It gets a lot better as the season moves forward. And Hail join the 21st century and get a damn DVR.
Agreed

Hail needs to get a DVR. And ditch the old rotary dial phone too. I wish that they could tap into what everyone is DVRing. I would happily share that info if it helps keep good shows on the air. The Nielson ratings system is a dinosaur that needs to be put down. To them I say NUTS!
I bailed, maybe I'll jump back in the mix

after the first half of the season, i was like, this is a soap opera with nukes and guns. I hope its more thrilling at the end of the season.

to miss this show again! It's going to be so sweet to not watch it, not record it and wait for it to be cancelled again.

'a soap opera with nukes and guns'

Yes. Most TV shows are soap operas. Only Jericho, Heroes, and 24 put nukes and guns into it. Lost, Sopranos, Buffy, Rome, Dexter, ER, Twin Peaks, Desperate Housewives, Drive, Weeds, etc. All are examples of prime-time or cable soap operas, some better than others.
Watch it....Please?

Come on man, give it a chance! Jericho is great, I neeeeed it next season. God knows why but I really liked this show. I think I put far too much on the location of a show...I know it's not really shot in some sleepy backwater, but I really want to live in Jericho (not after the nukes of course). Please give it a chance, I live in the UK and have 0 influence on the viewing figures, so I can't help it out at all. My poor, poor show. Watch it!!!!

Herc's taste in shows isn't an automatic sign of quality. Hence the O.C. and Big Brother talkbacks. Also, Capone handles The Shield talkbacks....and that show don't suck.
Neo Zeed, I caught the first few episodes of The Shield
by Shermdawg

...back in the day, and there was plenty of things that sucked in that one.
The Shield sucked in the beginning?
by Neo Zeed
Jul 6th, 2007
10:55:02 PM
Nope, sorry it didn't. Even the pilot episode was excellent. My point was that Herc chooses shows to cover at times because of quality, and other times because he's addicted to reality tv and mediocre shows featuring Buffy alumni. It during that time, the AICN film guys have to pick up the slack.
Neo, Neo, Neo...I never said The Shield sucked.

I was referring to the fact that almost everytime I turned on FX back when the show started someone was getting a bj.

No one said Herc likes nothing, but shitty shows. He just let a couple of good ones slip through the cracks. So the Capone and Merrick picked up the slack.

really should be forced to watch the first half. It puts everything into perspective...in other words, it will illustrate how a pretty entertaining second half somewhat redeems the shit first half, and debunks the lavish praise ("best show ever!" "it's deep, meaningful, and resonant!") that The Nutz heap on it.

CBS is rather smart by repeating only the second half.
This is going to be like Firefly, isn't it?

*SPOILER* Johnston Green's death in the last episode was retarded. This guy they've established as ex-marine just walks in nonechalantly beside a tank. Not behind the tank, beside it. And gets shot. Of course the tank is going to draw the most gunfire on a battlefield... it was the most lazily staged death I've ever seen.

Have there been reshoots or something? It's a joke that in a ratings game with millions of viewers at stake they uncancelled this piece of crap because of a couple thousand people. Mob rule isn't supposed to work that way.
Please watch JERICHO

This story is going somewhere, and I think it deserves the chance to finish what it started. There's a primary reason JERICHO didn't succeed, and that was that it tried very hard to be a lot of things to a lot of people. The advertisements that originally aired for it made people think it was going to be ... EDGY ... and ... DARK! It showed kids watching nukes go off from rooftops. It showed hints of a devastated Earth. It showed people struggling to survive, and had that jagged font that says EDGY! to today's mass-market youth. The trouble is, the actual show was at first a lot more like a Hallmark show than anything else, filled with stories about family and getting along through tough times. That's not what the majority of the people who tuned-in wanted: they wanted stuff that sounded more like this: "Damn it! You betrayed us ALL!" "The city is GONE!" "WHERE IS THE CODE KEY!? WHERE IS THE DISK!?" "Pop quiz, HOTSHOT!" "KILL THEM!" "LEAVE NO SURVIVORS!" "Walnut Grove? THIS - IS - JERICHO!" And that wasn't what JERICHO was about, at all. People were expecting the first hour of the pilot to be MIRACLE MILE and the second hour to be THE DAY AFTER, and they were angry when that's not what they got. However, I think that JERICHO is a worthwhile show. People need to wake up and realize that not every single show needs to be DARK and EDGY to be able to win people over and to be worth watching - sometimes it's GOOD not to be stressed-out with cocktease tension every week (are you listening, LOST? I'm talking to you!). Sometimes, it's good to just stop and get to know characters. Sometimes, it's relaxing to see how other people deal with long-term situations rather than just beating a finite problem to death (24, I can hear you breathing) in order to move on to the larger finite problem. JERICHO defies categorization. And it's good that it does. It's a very square action/drama show. It's got some interesting characters I'd love to get to know over longer seasons. It's got some intrigue and secrets, sure, but they are dressing on the characters and you'll note these pieces of dressing increased as the show headed into the end of Season 1. I predict, sadly, that Season 2 will be much more about code-keys and disks than about characters, because people don't really want to get to know eachother any more - they just need to beat on the newest problem and move on to the next. Watch JERICHO. It's good for you, like an apple.
ive got a better idea.

A lot of people have said of LOST, "Oh, it's just building slowly." Well, I think JERICHO is a lot faster than LOST, but it seems to be very much moving in the direction toward a more militaristic, action-based show as the series progressed to the end of Season 1. Look, you know how you watch an old pilot and you see things they brought in that were abandoned, and by the end the show looks nothing like the original? That's JERICHO Season 1. You really ought to just give it one or two hours of your time toward the end of this run of repeats. Watch the finale. It's not a crazed march into action, but I think it clearly shows where the show is headed. I LIKE the show. I think it's an interesting idea, and I'm curious to see what kind of themes they are moving toward. If it's going in a bad direction, I'm not going to just watch out of loyalty. But I think it's a shame it got cancelled right on the edge of doing some good stuff, and I'm so glad there's even a short second season to get this story completed. Just give it a try?

The Fucking Shield because your claims are ridiculous. Everytime you turned it on someone was getting a bj? WTF show were you watching? Surely not the Shield.
You're right. I never did watch The Shied.

At least not a full episode. But like I said, EVERYTIME I turned on FX when the show was on, SOMEONE be gettin' their knob slobbered. You gotta figure in the constant replays of the show as well. I musta landed on that black dude getting blown by that chick by the dumpster and the gay dude at least half a dozen times.
Shermdawg knows what he's talking about...

There's a weird coincidental magic or something about reruns. You can turn in to a bad episode of a show, walk away for months, hear someone tell you how awesome the show is, and tune back in only to get the -exact- same epsiode or one featuring the exact same content that turned you off EVERY TIME. It's like a rule of the cosmos or something.
It's like every time I've tried to watch That 70's Show
