what can I say? It sucks, nothing ever happens, it's like watching a soapie, if nothing interesting happen in the next few episodes then I'm off to bed early on a Wednesday night.

The show is briliant, saw the whole season already.

I think someone at SABC got hold of my hdd. First Heroes now Jericho, wonder which one is next off my hdd.

But the show does pick up speed. The start is little slow ;)
 
I like it!!!
I have it on my HDD but like watching it coz i dont know whats going on!!

Yeah - I didnt make it past the first few episodes.
 
I also don't think it is very good ... its too slow and the plot has been done to death .... but at least there is still heroes :)

What is it with people today who expect every series they watch to be gripping, sphincter-clenching, jaw-dropping awesome from the word go. Series that are slow to start off these days are immediately canned by the network execs because all of a sudden everything has to be of epic proportions. Thus all the decent shows like Jericho and Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip fall through the cracks of the fast-crumbling TV industry. You realize that if shows 10 years ago had to go through the same sort of "immediate hit" scrutiny, we probably wouldn't have had Seinfeld, The Simpsons, Friends, Quantum Leap, Stargate and many more.

Give stuff a chance, not every series released these days has to be as gripping from the beginning as Lost or Heroes. I personally think Jericho has just the right amount of awesome, yeah it starts slow but if you have the attention span of even a 12 year old you could actually keep watching as it gets better, rather than just throwing it in the crap pile because the first 3 or so episodes were "slow".
