So I found this amazing little show on Netflix. I started watching it and got hooked. The show is extremely interesting, has a great plot, the acting isn't bad, and above everything else, it's different than most other shows out there. So I get all excited and then come to find out....it comes to an abrupt end about 7 episodes into season two...not that's where they ended the show with a finally....no the show comes to a dead halt!!!! :mad: and :wtf2:

It really sucks to hear that this show was cancelled! I know I'm about 4-5 years too late, but man if I could do something to get a real ending out of this show I would. Anyone else really like this show?


I also read into it and came across something somewhere that said one of the reasons this show ended up being cancelled is bc CBS ran it against american idol...of all things american idol killed off this great show, along with piss poor scheduling by CBS.....I know I'm late to the game on this one, but I think my anger is at least slightly justified!

I actually remember watching that show while me and my wife were dating. Her family really got into it, then they cancelled it. Unfortunately, there's a lot of network TV shows that are awesome, but suffer the same demise. I'm still pissed that they cancelled The Good Guys and then NBC cancelled The Cape(superhero show) after only 5 episodes, yet there are far worse shows that somehow live on forever...

^... like American Idol. It died like 5 years ago I mean cmon give it up. The auditions arent even funny anymore and with all these other stupid singing competitions on the air, its all American Idol that lasts 4 hours a night year round to me. If they can bring back Beavis and Butthead they can resume these other shows that were really good.

I remember the name of the show but never watched it. Its a shame that the underrated shows looked stomped on. Btw earlier tonight actually I was watching The Whitest Kids U' Know on Netfilx. It only lasted 1 season (I assume it was cancelled), but man is it funny funny! Check it out and just watch it.

there's 3 or 4 seasons of the whitest kids you know! I love that show too....the abraham lincoln skit and slow jerk are two of my favs.....

I highly doubt Jericho could be brought back this late in the game, but for all story intensive purposes, I don't care if they change the characters or if they look THAT much older....I WANNA KNOW THE ENDING!!!! lol

Hello Jericho Fans,

You will be glad to hear that the Jericho story continues in the Season 3: Civil War graphic novel. It starts at the end of S2 with Jake and Hawkins in Texas with the bomb. You can purchase via Amazon:http://tinyurl.com/4zoztad

The story is act one of a much larger Jericho story, which the producers are developing as a TV movie.

thanks for the post!! My uncle owns a comic shop so I'll have to give him a buzz to see if I can purchase some copies of the graphic novels.

This is good to hear that they're pulling something together for a movie. Wonder who they'll cast in it???

i got stuck watching jericho when it popped up on netflix. pretty good show, but i don't feel like it completely left you hanging at the end. texas will side with columbus and expose cheyenne, civil war ensues, people die, east wins, the main dude knocks up the hot blonde, the farmer kills his new wife for f*** up dinner one night. the end.

Actually, it got cancelled after season one. Remember when they were about to be attacked in the finale and Jake yells "Nuts!" over the radio in reference to that famous WWII battle I'm too lazy to google? Nuts were kind of a lightning rod and people actually started having them delivered to the producers. Even some of the actors in Jericho started sending them. The received something like a tractor trailer and a half of nuts from some internet send-someone-nuts.com (Go figure.)

So they brought it back for season two, but half the filming season was already over so that's why there's not many episodes to season 2.

One of my all-time favorite TV series. I've watched it several times now.
