Wow that is something else to go that far. Well I wish them luck. I'd like a few more seasons myself. If they fail I'm glad they had the 7 episodes to give it an ok ending. |

Sorry, but I think that's really bad news. This blows chances that other shows will have of being resurrected. The bottom line is that Jericho was a very mediocre show at best, poor acting, poor technical work and often quite poor scripts. It did deserve to be axed after it's first season. They fans clamored to have it back, it was brought back -- it was worse, much worse -- and it failed even more specularly. This is bad for other shows. At some point when there is a high quality show canceled - Firefly, Wonderfalls, Drive, etc, etc ,etc The network execs will turn around and say -- "look, we gave you what you wanted with Jericho, and it sucked even more when it came back" So no, we're not going to bring your favorite show back, even if it does have critical acclaim (something Jericho, rightly, never had). Please, Jericho fans, for the love of good TV please, please, please stop. Your show is dead. Leave it buried. You are only doing harm at this point. |

the pilot episode of jericho showed so much promise, but the story grew stale pretty quickly and then turned plain boring. They could have done so much more... |

Well... as said FAN..fan of whatever show. They need fuel to their needs. I'm Jericho fan and I need more of it. Lots of good shows are axed lately which is shame to cable networks. JERICHO FANS....at least they try to do something about it. |

I just wish the fans fought that hard for Firefly... That was a show worthy of the effort. |

Let it go, people! The final ep was fine and tied everything up nicely. The show could have quite easily removed ten-thirteen episodes from season one and it wouldn't have made a difference to the storyline. As for people who are not TV studio staff spending that much money - well, it's disgusting. Send those nuts to people in New Orleans, use the money you used for the sign for ANYTHING else!!! It's over, concentrate your time and money on matters that concern the world, if you can't do that, invest that money in some training, spend thirty years working in TV, become a producer/exec and make your own mediocre shows. |

Agreed. Time to take Jericho out behind the shed and put a bullet in it. It's Done. |

Conceptually Jericho was brilliant and very timely and perhaps thats why its been axed and starved of cash/resources. Perhaps the elites think us plebs are not to be fed such conspiracy stories fictional or factual especially in the times of the dangling chads et. al. Its an upward slog for Jericho against almost impossible odds but that is the true American spirit displayed by the outstanding fans of Jericho. This is even more so when you consider the pap-smear series that are renewed time and time again as relevant and powerful series fall by the way side. |

Sorry but Jericho and Firefly had much in common in my view, interesting premises let down by poor execution, both were cancelled because not enough people wanted to watch, which is tough if you liked those shows but what exactly do you expect the networks to do? |

My wife and I are fans who have been there since day 1. Since before the pilot first aired. We were hooked just on the previews. They, and the show are top notch all the way. I have to quote two earlier comments, if I might. Jericho was, [and IS - in my personal opinion] the best show on TV in over a decade. And the other quote? Complimenting the fans of Jericho, this second comment I found read, \"Its an upward slog for Jericho against almost impossible odds but that is the true American spirit displayed by the outstanding fans of Jericho. This is even more so when you consider the pap-smear series that are renewed time and time again as relevant and powerful series fall by the way side.\" I fully, and totally agree, and I fully support the fans\' efforts to find another venue for this well-written, well-acted, timely series. I want to see MANY, MANY more seansons; seasons of more than 7 episodes each. |

And one more important thought, an omission for which I apologize. Commercial networks don't give any show the chance for success they once did. M*A*S*H didn't really take off in the ratings until its third year on the air. Nowadays, if a show isn't an instant hit, it gets the axe. Can you imagine all the wonderful, informative and entertaining storylines we would have missed if M*A*S*H had been cancelled in ITS first year? I also think they need a ratings system where ALL viewers can vote, not just those that are selected by Nielson or other ratings services. With the internet and other modern technology, this can be done; so they can't say it's not possible. Give the viewers a REAL say in which shows are kept for another year. Yes, my wife and I are proud to be true Jericho supporters, and will remain so! |

Journeyman is a show worthy of this kind of effort as well I say. Good luck to them. |

Agreed, as was New Amsterdam. I wish more people had fought this hard to bring back Traveler as well. |
