Saving Jericho: The Right Thing



"So, having spent the last few days laid up in bed, smacked out on NyQuil and Sudafed, watching reruns of "Dr. Who," "Jericho" and "Battlestar Galactica" on SciFi leaves me really qualified to make only these policy pronouncements this week:

Second, saving "Jericho" from cancellation hell is the best decision CBS has made in a very long time.

Seriously, "Ghost Whisperer"? "Cold Case?" CBS doesn't have anything that even comes close to "Jericho's" level. Personally, I've always had a soft spot for post-apocalyptic fiction (like "The Road Warrior") and stories about small groups under extraordinary stress ("Das Boot") and "Jericho" combines both into a compelling, character-driven plot that is dynamic and (as TV fiction so rarely is) unpredictable."

I totally agree! Jericho is the only show that I look forward to seeing every week. I've recruited close to a dozen new people to watch the show and now they too are hooked. If CBS doesn't want Jericho I recommend that they sell it to another network like sci fi channel. I could care less what channel Jericho airs on - just as long as it continues to keep me glued to the set.
