Calling all ‘Jericho’ fans
May 2nd, 2008 by Rosemary
I hear there’s a movement to save the show and I want to write about it.
If you’ve never heard of “Jericho,” it’s a CBS drama set in a small Kansas town that survives a severe nuclear attack on the United States. Great ensemble cast. One of the best dramas on TV.
Would love to talk to some local, Eagle-Tribune circulation area fans who are passionate about seeing the show return for a second season.
Please post or drop me a line at rford@eagletribune.com.

Hi Rosemary!
Currently there are several campaigns going on that the fans have started to move Jericho to a new home on another station. I have emailed you details, please feel free to contact me or one of the fans that may contact you about our efforts!

Please join us at cbs.com Jericho forums and get involved. We’ve got a lot going and have had some positive news from Carol Barbee, Jericho’s executive producer.

Hi Rosemary - I’m a GDT reader and a huge Jericho fan. I’ve posted on a couple of the Jericho boards, and have participated with some of the Jericho campaigns, mostly by email and letter writing. It’s hard to believe that CBS cut Jericho, but has kept Big Brother on the air. The ratings have been about the same for both shows. Go figure.

Hi Rosemary- I hope I won’t be excluded from commenting, because I’m not a fan! Not only that I’ve never heard of “Jericho”! I took the trouble to check it out and discovered it was canceled a second time. From the synopses it sounds like a serialization of the made-for-tv movie “The Day After”. And given the state of the world today I don’t want to think of what things will be like after a Nuke attack. I watched the clip where Jake and Hawkins share an emotional moment. It didn’t entice me to watch the entire episode. But jeeze, email and letter writing campaign to raise the dead! I guess ‘WHATEVER FLOATS YOUR BOAT.”

JERICHO ROCKS! Too bad there is a bunch of morons running CBS. I never ran a tv network before, but I know I can do better than the clowns they got at CBS. First thing I’d do is remove Big Brother 9 and all the CSI’s and I’d air repeats of “JERICHO”. It’s amazing how everybody wants JERICHO and that’s the only show that CBS refuses to air repeats of. It’s really sad. I noticed “Shark” tonight suddenly got an 8pm slot without even fighting for it? then a repeat of that alien mind controlling CSI Miami in JERICHO’s old spot? (C’mon the star of that show talks like a child molester/stalker) If they aired a repeat of season one and two of JERICHO the way they air pretty much every show CBS has, JERICHO would be more known to the world. Jericho is inspiring, everything else on tv is not. When did inspiration become the enemy of this country? Seems like no tv network has any good shows left. CBS’s line up is ridiculous right now. Shark, then CSI? what a boring night.

Hi Rosemary I feel compelled to apologize to you for the preceding comment by the “alien mind” . Just goes to show what too much TV can do to ones intelligence.
