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.


This man knows what hes talking. I was going to say the show sucked, but we can
go with mediocre instead. I mean you have to have one horrible show to get
canceled twice. Let it go and find a new (read: actually worth watching) t.v.
show of choice.

OH and dont get me started on Firefly! I loved Serenity, I even bought the dvd
(imagine that one). But firefly was complete and utter garbage! If I had to
pick a choice of watching either Firefly or Jericho, i'd pick Jericho and we all
know how I feel about that show "rolls eyes".

Some of you people need to grow taste buds. It's perfectly fine to love a show,
but you need to at the same time realize when it sucks and learn to let go.
Just because "you" think a show is good doesnt mean it should be allowed to stay
on anymore than a show that "I" think is bad should be given the axe.

The show lacked appropriate ratings so it was axed, its as simple as that. You
dont see me picketing fox studios for rehashing the umpteenth season American
Idol, why? Because I realize that even though I think its completely unoriginal
it continues to week after week pull in spectacular ratings.

Jerichos story premise was good, and thats about where the list of good things
to say about the show ends.

Jericho was alright.
Firefly was and still is THE BEST TV show ever.

Just because "you" think its bad doesn't mean it shouldn't be fought for. Btw
you sound very depressed, I suggest you seek help

Jericho was fantastic, and the fact we missed out on seeing the second
revolution (the air battle albeit short had me pumped) was a travesty.

Jericho MUST BE RENEWED!

No, I didn't like the show and only saw the first ep, but at this rate one of
these crazy fans is going to steal a nuke to remake it for real!

just the simple the fact that 6 million people care enough to take an active
part in trying to rescue a show (whatever it is) seems to me to be plenty
enough reason for it to carry on.

I'm sorry if YOU personally think it's no good, but plenty of people do seem to
like it so why not keep it going?

I don't see anyone hlding you down in front of your TV's forcing you to watch
it, so if you don't like it switch over, what's the big deal?

there's plenty of shows I don't like, you know what I do about them? I don't
watch them, simple as that.

I don't feel any overwhelming desires to rush onto internet forums and badmouth
the people who do like these shows, it's a free world (mostly) and people can
watch what they choose to watch.
