When I heard that Jericho was probably going to be cancelled, I didn't even watch the last episode.

The recent news of the "Nuts Campaign" success made me want to go to CBS' website and watch the last episode.

The amount of traffic they had on the Jericho site, especially the portion where you can watch full episodes, helped as well.

So if you missed any shows, or want to watch them again, go there and check them out. It can only help.

I liked the show from the beginning, only, it is more like a soap opera that a post-apocalyptic survival show.

Guess they gotta appeal to the masses...

Toward the end there was less soap opera and more substance. I hope they stick with it I loved the show's premiss even if they didn't always deliver.....

Jericho Lives Again!

Jericho is rising from the ashes.
The CBS drama about small-town life afer a nuclear attack was the lowest-rated prime-time program on the network and didn't make the fall schedule. But from the moment it was canceled, fans swamped the network with letters, emails and bags of nuts - a reference to a line in the season finale. CBS reversed its decision, ordering seven episodes for as early as November. "We've never seen anything like this," network scheduling chief Kelly Kahl said of the relentless response. "We're going to give the show another chance, but people are going to have to support it." Viewers claimed the Nielsen ratings didn't reflect how they watch the show. Jericho was the second most popular CBS program on iTunes and online after CSI, and got an 8 percent ratings boost from people who recorded it. "It's the first show to demonstrate that people watch TV in a new way," says exec producer Carol Barbee. "The netword needs to understand how many people they are really reaching."
