Jericho

[Asha'man X]

I remember that when Heroes ended, Jericho was billed as being as good as Heroes, and I stupidly believed it.

I watched the first few episodes, and things were slow as hell. I have watched a few since then, but it couldn't hold my attention the way Heroes did. I acutally started watching wrestling again because of how slow Jericho was.

Once we got DSTV, I've found far more interesting things to watch and enjoy.

Like Stargate Atlantis

I also find Jericho very slow, and last nights episode didnt help either.

I find it even more slow than Lost.

After hearing that it suppose to be so good, I keep watching every week hoping it will improve but so far it hasnt.

The only decent part of the show is the Hawkins part of the story

I think it's good it is the last otherwise it'll end up dragging on and on like Lost and Prison Break. Short and sweet is the way to go with these kinds of series

Jericho was crap last night, the way they advertised they said its an episode you cannot miss.... there was nothing special it was a "filler"show.

So I was not the only one who thought the show sucks!

LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- "Jericho," the post-apocalyptic CBS drama whose devoted fans rallied to save it from cancellation, has met its end.


Despite fervent fan support, "Jericho" just didn't attract enough viewers, said CBS.

The show failed to increase its audience and will air its final episode Tuesday, the network said Friday.

"Without question, there are passionate viewers watching this program; we simply wish there were more," CBS Entertainment President Nina Tassler said in a statement. "We have no regrets bringing the show back for a second try."

"Jericho," which stars Skeet Ulrich, was canceled last May, triggering a fan protest that deluged the network with about 40,000 pounds of peanuts -- a tribute to the defiant "Nuts!" line uttered by Ulrich's character in the first-season finale.

CBS relented and ordered seven new episodes, which started airing in February.

Networks rarely reverse a show's cancellation, but CBS has proven its flexibility at least once before. In 1983, after "Cagney & Lacey" was canceled and the network was bombarded with protests, the police drama was brought back in 1984 -- and ran successfully until 1988.

The network also likely took into consideration the dent a long hiatus put in the show's viewership.

Last fall, "Jericho" was averaging 10.5 million viewers. When it returned in the spring, it drew about 8.1 million, about a 23 percent decline from the first half of the season. It's been averaging about 6 million viewers in its current run.

[gdiza]

So did I!!!

No man, not again!
Damn it!

It was a good show, had its '***' episodes, but every show does - this show has so much potential.

[vespax]

I've really enjoyed it. Even bought an episode off of iTunes because I had to miss the Wednesday night episode.

Looking forward to the second season (although only like 6 episodes).

[The Axe Dude]

Yeah, second season has been really good...Can't believe we will never know what happens...

[theratman]

Its been proper canned now,only 7/8 episodes are going to be aired,viewship dropped form 10.5 million to 8.5 million.

[gdiza]
