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

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

Every time CBS gets a good show on they hack it to death and then cancel it. I really followed the show while it was on. No wonder no one watches CBS. They cancell every good show that comes along. I don't watch CBS any longer. Bring back Jerico.

Please put this show back on!!! I love the story and characters. I hate when networks cancel these shows and leave you hanging on the outcome! Do they not pay attention to the viewers.

Good one Lois R ... What has happened to people who don't like to think??? Why do all programs have to have gore and sex. How sick are people today?
It was a pleasure to watch, and Skeet Ulrich was and has been a compelling actor to watch.
What has happen?? ... brainless society seems to be ruling ... especially it seems with CBS executives.
Please give us some intelligent thought provoking TV .. bring Jericho back and at least finish the story, there is so much still that could be explored.
Jericho just kept getting better and better.
I got to wonder how and why they decide for us what we can watch. Who do they test to find these answers?
It doesn't have to be the top grossing show of all time as long as it is popular. And Jericho was and still is.
I have found that shows like this have a loyal following. CBS would do well to remember this and realize loyalty is much more valuable that a flash in the pan.
Another problem with good shows that fail .. well a few actually.
The airing of advertising for a show - if it's not there how are people supposed to even know what it is, we have lives you know. Encoring episodes in the begining I have found to be a treat and gives more people a chance to watch.
Another are the time slots ... not only bad time slots but swapping them around all the time.
They really kill a lot that can do well.
CBS, think with the right head when choosing shows.
There are a number of people in society where sex doesn't sell it but marks it to be missed.
Please be loyal to all your veiwers not just the Vouyers ... PLEASE !!!

I'm posting a comment on behalf of my husband although I enjoyed watching the show as well. If the show has to be pulled off the air I feel the viewers deserve some sort of ending....We were all left hanging so to speak with no finality to the story. Please bring the show back on or at least end it with a true ending.

I still can't believe you guys let this show go, It is one of the biggest mistakes that you have made. You will cancel this show but put on a show about wife swapping. Jericho was so good because something could happen to our world just lke the show. It always left you thinking. What would we do if one day our tv went of the air and we did not know what was destroyed in the world. I love in a small town and Jericho was a show that our whole family watched. We even were talking about a plan. There are so many people out there that do have weapons that could blow up the nations. Now what would be better to watch for the family. A show that is life like and teaches you something or a show that teaches us that it is ok to share wives. Not a hard question is it? Please put Jericho back on the air and this time leave it on.

gee guys no sex, no blood, no gore what did you think
that something that was thought provoking and showed how the coupling of the good against the evil was to survive.... I have been so reveved up I watched season 1 & 2 in two days. I found it to be so entertaining without bouncing boobs, red splater, and tounge ostomies that it was a delight. The hopes that it never happens combined with the thought of it could happen keeps you engaged in the series. The entertainment is there but so is the answers to what if. Im so there for season 3...
