CBS' fall line-up includes the new drama "Jericho," from executive producers Jon Turteltaub (National Treasure), Stephen Chbosky (Rent) and Carol Barbee ("Judging Amy"). The series is about what happens when a nuclear mushroom cloud suddenly appears on the horizon, plunging the residents of a small, peaceful Kansas town into chaos, leaving them completely isolated and wondering if they're the only Americans left alive. Fear of the unknown propels Jericho into social, psychological and physical mayhem when all communication and power is shut down. The town starts to come apart at the seams as terror, anger and confusion bring out the very worst in some residents. But in this time of crisis, as sensible people become paranoid, personal agendas take over and well-kept secrets threaten to be revealed, some people will find an inner strength they never knew they had and the most unlikely heroes will emerge. Skeet Ulrich, Gerald McRaney, Pamela Reed, Lennie James, Michael Gaston, Kenneth Mitchell, Sprague Grayden, Erik Knudsen and Ashley Scott star.

In one sentence: It makes me feel alive.
This morning I drove up, parked with the rest of the crew of CBS’s new serial drama Jericho and hoped on the shuttle to head over to the set.
