Issue:

Should Jericho be kept on CBS and should someone call the head of CBS to let them know the viewers feelings?

Belief:

CBS did not give Jericho a fair chance, by asking the cast and crew for seven (1/3 the number of the first season) episodes. CBS changed the time of the showing of the show, a show which could help families to have some positive conversation on their beliefs of the reality of the show, as well as a chance to speculate "what if atomic bombs were to go off in the United States?"

This show gave families a chance to allow children to watch the show without having to worry about sexual innuendos and a chance to bring families closer

5%
CBS changed to a time slot, that while still in prime time, did not allow children to watch the show.
95%
CBS cut the budget the cast AND the number of shows to 1/3 of the shows from the first season, as well as ignoring audience members who either taped, or watched the show online. One of the writers strike issues was about the internet, yet CBS still ignored that section of the audience

Between NBC canceling Journeyman and CBS canceling Jericho (again) there really isn't any quality shows on TV anymore. It is all reality garbage with mostly naked people running around looking like idiots. Not something I want my 6 and 8 year olds watching.
To put it bluntly...TV sucks!

I still can't believe CBS cancelled Jericho for a second time. What a$$es, they don't know a good thing when they have it. When someone picks up Jericho, and I know someone will, they will be sorry, because it will run for years to come.

I can't believe they cancelled Jericho either, one of a handful of quality tv shows. I hope someone does pick up Jericho soon and that it does run for several more years. It was a great show.

I am upset with the fact you took off a great show. Why the time and day change so you could set up to fail. I had to watch on demand! For a change of pace you have lost a viewer THANKS CBS!

Jericho is one of the best TV shows I have seen in a long time. Reality TV shows suck!

Submitted by PJ M. on Sat, 05/17/2008 - 18:50

I agree. Reality shows do suck. There are too many of them and they seem to keep putting more on and cancelling quality programming like Jericho.

Submitted by Ken C. on Fri, 05/16/2008 - 02:34

One of the best shows on TV. Lets keep it going.

I thouroghly enjoyed watching Jericho. It was interesting watching the towns people deal with all the problems of a nuclear attack. I can't believe the network cancelled it again! Someone out there please pick it up for the next season. Fox, WB, ABC, NBC, Sifi anyone???

Submitted by Sandy P. on Thu, 05/15/2008 - 15:56

Please keep Jericho on, obviously it's a great show, if so many people have time to come here and vote to keep it on.

Submitted by Don L. on Thu, 05/15/2008 - 14:48

I can't believe they are canceling Jerico again. It is a very well written show and the plot, in this day and age, is not that far fetched. I would hope that CBS would think about the viewers that think there is more to television than another so called reality show.

they should at least try to finish the story even if it take four or five episode

What is wrong with CBS? Are you people not paying attention? If you would invest in this show, you would have a competitor for ABC's Lost. I don't believe you have any way to gauge the popularity or fanbase of Jericho. We don't need any more pseudo-reality shows. We need more thought-provoking, cutting-edge, well-acted entertainment. And that is Jericho. Texas loves Jericho!

Submitted by Sonya T. on Wed, 05/14/2008 - 21:04

My husband and I are Baby Boomers and we love Jericho. It clearly appeals to a wide audience because it is very well-written and -acted. We bought the 1st season on DVD and watched it before the last 7 episodes aired. Those 7 were excellent drama. Why on earth would CBS cancel a program of such quality? There is still an audience out here for intelligent, thought-provoking drama. Bring back Jericho! The "vast wasteland" is even more vast without it.

Submitted by Joanie S. on Wed, 05/14/2008 - 08:04

I had no idea it was cancelled. I watched the end of the season thinking I couldn't wait for next season. What is CBS thinking. Jericho is the only show I looked forward to each week. There is so much potential there.

Submitted by Karen B. on Wed, 05/14/2008 - 05:23

Jericho is the only show I watched with my husband. We couldn't wait until the next episode.

Submitted by Craig B. on Wed, 05/14/2008 - 05:11

Jericho is one of the few series that actually seems to have a plot. It's at least as good as "Lost" on a low budget.

Submitted by Lisa C. on Wed, 05/14/2008 - 01:07

Should have given Jericho fans more...we saved it once..during the summer of 2007/ most people are not home during the summer,would love to see it back on. It is better than all of the filler shows they are submitting.

Submitted by elizabeth m. on Wed, 05/14/2008 - 01:02

This was the first "new" t.v. show I have liked in twenty freakin' years! It may have been fiction, but it raised some questions that might not be so fictional. I say, let's get it back!

Submitted by laura l. on Tue, 05/13/2008 - 17:45

I live in England so dont know much about CBS. Just finished watching season 1 of Jericho and cannot believe that there are only 7 more episodes for me 2 see. Come on guys sort yorselves out, we need more Jericho over here.

Submitted by Dave T. on Tue, 05/13/2008 - 17:32

Almost 2 monthes since you axed it and the commits are still coming in, don't think you'd get that if you canned one of those "reality" shows. There's still time to fix it!!

Submitted by Jane J. on Tue, 05/13/2008 - 16:52

Jericho was my addiction and I am extremely disappointed CBS canceled it. I have now boycotted CBS and have completely lost faith in their choice of what to run for viewers.

Submitted by William D. on Tue, 05/13/2008 - 13:31

Jericho was the only reason I watched CBS. I loved this show and I hope that someone with some power to take a chance a give Jericho a third season. I would be in heaven and so would all the other fans of the show in Canada and all over the world. I hope that this isn't the end of the road.

Need Jericho LOVE Jericho don't need CBS lots of good books in the libery!!!

Jericho was a refreshing change from all the hospital and cop shows flooding the networks today. It is a fresh perspective on American life and the people as well. A "what if" story line that is so unpredictable I found myself rivited to every episode and waiting impatiently for the next one. If it comes out on DVD I have every intention of buying it. Clever writing, ineresting casting, and characters you can believe in. Please keep this jem on the air. If only to satisfy those of us with enough intellect to want to be challenged by our TV viewing.
