TV Review: Jericho

Review Brian Tallerico.

Source: The Deadbolt.

The nuts have it next week when Jericho fans get what they demanded from CBS and their favorite show makes the unlikely return from the dustbin of cancellation next week. Like the residents of the small town from which it takes its name, the fans of Jericho would not go quietly into the TV night when CBS unceremoniously cut the action series from its fall 2007 schedule. Playing off a major plot point in the first season finale when a character responds to the demand for surrender with the word "nuts," Jericho fans deluged the network with actual food product. As far as I know that's a first, but it should allow for some creativity when future shows get cancelled. (Maybe if we send bananas to Fox, they'll bring back Arrested Development.) Anyway, the plan worked and now we get closure to that season one cliffhanger and a slightly new direction for the show without losing what fans loved about it in the first place. The second season of Jericho doesn't feel like a reinvention like it might have been for another series in the same position, but more like what the creators had planned all along. It just took some action on your part to make it happen. Now, don't let it get cancelled again.
