   The show has pacing problems, but its very good show nonetheless.
   
   CBS has a gem on their hands here and they shouldn't discard it.

   Thanks so much for the great article!
   I LOVED Jericho and never missed an episode.
   It was exciting, suspenseful and different.
   I want another season to see what happens to all of my favorite characters and what happens to the world, of course.
   CBS PLEASE BRING JERICHO BACK FOR ANOTHER SEASON!!!

   Wow..what a great effort on the part of the fans.
   I was disspointed when this show was axed. It was the only show I put my 20 month old to bed early so I could watch.
   CBS needs to listen to the fans and count the fasn that watch on the Web and Itunes rather than just what the Neilson ratings say.

   After a slow start, “Jericho” was building a good deal of momentum and had become a truly enjoyable program. It was with a good deal of surprise that I heard it was cancelled as it had become a “must watch” program for myself and many others in the Baltimore, Md. viewing area. In addition to the MILLIONS of regular TV viewer fans watching each week on normal TV, there are quite a few people who had started watching the show mid-season and were “catching up” on earlier episodes either online or via cable on-demand services… or simply awaiting the summer re-runs to catch those earlier episodes. No CBS simply says "Sorry!.. CANCELLED!" and plan to replace it with another mindless reality show. BLECCCH!! "Jericho" dealt with some interesting issues about about how the survivors of a nuclear attack on the U.S. cope with a new reality... banding together and working together ...or descending to baser instincts. This story had some great areas to explore and was a program CBS could have been very proud of long after its initial broadcast. This program certainly had become very popular in this area and makes me wonder if our Nielsen ratings system is somewhat obsolete nowadays... Life will go on without this program, but do we really neeed more "reality" programming and crime dramas???! Hopefully the folks at CBS will re-consider continuing this program for a second season… and create a win-win-win result for CBS, its sponsors, and all of the cast, crew and MILLIONS of viewers.

   Please bring back "Jericho"!! This was my favorite show and although I couldn't watch it on Wednesday evening, I always watched it the next day! When it was canceled, there were so many unanswered questions. CBS give us another season! The numbers were there!!! The numbers are still there!!! Bring it back!!

Nevetheless, I'm working hard to save our show and really appreciate the fervor and dedication and leadership of my fellow rangers. When we read articles like this, we know our message is getting across and the word is spreading. Thanks for a great article and for your support with our campaign.

   Thanks so much for your support of the Save Jericho movement. This show makes you think about how YOU and YOUR town would react in the same situation, and makes for great family discussions. CBS will be losing not only a quality drama, but a loyal audience if they don't bring Jericho back for at least another season.

   CBS made a huge mistake canceling this show! I watched it every week I could .If I missed it, I would watch it from On Demand or off the net. They are going by the Nielsen's. The Nielsens are an outdated method for information collection.Save jericho Nuts to CBS. Come and join one of the most historical fan movements ever!

   Thank you for the great artilcle!!!! Jericho was the best show that has ever been on tv. Most tv shows today consist of tired crime investigation or completely unbearable reality settings. Jericho was a breathe of fresh air in comparison. It gives us a well written, intense, story line that really makes you think and leaves you wanting more and more. Not to mention the awesome cast!!!!
   
   NUTS to CBS!!!! Please bring JERICHO back for season 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

   Very well put. I'm a 42 year-old professional who hasn't written anything resembling a fan letter since Donny Osmond was all the rage. But in the last week, I've more than made up for lost time, telling anyone who will listen (as well as some of those at CBS who don't seem to) how I feel about this poor programming decision and how I feel about CBS.

   Thank you for your positive coverage. Given the steady ratings Jericho had, even after the hiatus and while going up against American Idol, it makes no sense to me why it was canceled. There are other shows that had lower average ratings for the season that were renewed. Jericho needs to be renewed as well.

   Thanks for the support. The NUTS to CBS campaign continues to gain momentum. While it is more than "just a TV show" to all of us it is also a way to show the networks that their cheap drivel reality shows, flaky comedies, endless clones and increasingly racy line up is loosing them viewers. If they would focus on promoting what quality programming they managed to produce (like JERICHO) the young and edgy audience they so desparately desire would come to them.

We are tired of being force feed unintelligent reality shows. Please help support the campaign. Save Jericho, save quality programming. Cbs is "NUTS"

   Steve, thanks for the article about the NUTS campaign to save Jericho. Jericho is a wonderful show, and as a fan I avidly want it returned to the air. I hope CBS reconsiders its decision because this show should be renewed. Jericho is a compelling drama with a loyal fan base that will continue to support the show. Are you listening CBS?

1. MsSunshine84 Says:

   CBS made some mistakes with the handling of Jericho. However, they are now in a position to rectify these decisions. Listen to your viewers and take advantage of all this publicity by bringing back Jericho for a second season.

   One of the things I like best about JERICHO is that everytime the writers answer a question, more questions arise from the answer. The show entertains but keeps you thinking too.
   
   I hope CBS sees it's way to making the right decision and brings it back for another season. Nothing less will do.

   Thanks for covering this movement! CBS made a big mistake canceling Jericho. They obviously did not realize how many real viewers the show really had. Maybe this movement will go a long way in revising the Nielsen Ratings or doing away with them all together. Obviously they are antiquated in this technological advancing age. Save Jericho First!!

   Jericho was an excellent show, with good television ratings, and was one of iTunes top downloads, as well as being the most downloaded show on cbs.com. It has millions and millions of fans, and shouldn't have been cancelled.
   
   CBS really HAS to renew Jericho, otherwise it will alienate too many viewers, and viewers in the coveted 18-49 demographic too, as it is people in this important demographic who are using new media to watch shows. CBS has to wake up and pay attention to the changing media environment.
   
   They have to wake up and pay atention to their viewers too: and we want Jericho back!

   I have never in my life been so affected by a show that I would send countless e-mails, write letters, buy nuts, make phone calls and send in comments about my love for this show. I have been hooked from day one (Skeet Ulrich was the bait), but I quickly fell in love with the rest of the people of Jericho and I need to know how the story ends. CBS made a terrible choice to not give it another chance. I hope they reconsider, I for one will be a very grateful CBS fan for life if they do.

   I am very disappointed with CBS. We do not want closure, we want Jericho back. People I know were just starting to get interested in it as we have told them about it. They did not give it enough time!!!! I will continue to boycott CBS until they bring it back or sell it to a more viewer friendly station. It was just like Judging Amy, I loved that show, and with no warning it was gone. I will not give CBS the chance to pull another show I love, I will not be watching until Jericho is returned for a second season. As for your 2 cents I disagree. Thank You

   I love Jericho and I have never fought to get another show back on TV but I really believe in what we are doing and more importantly I believe this will work. CBS has to be held accountable - 'CBS CARES' should mean something to them. Jericho was a good show for the whole family. It isn't just about nukes being dropped in the US it is about survival and doing the right thing. Survival and doing the right thing is the inspiration for the Jericho Rangers.
   
   There are a lot of people who think we are 'nuts' and maybe we are, we are the elite who happen to believe that we should have some control over what is being brought into our homes during prime time. It may not be 'major news' but it is very important that we all stand up for our family time. Most of us pay to have cable TV brought into our homes, what makes any naysayer think that we do not have the right to speak out on what is on?

   Thank you very much for adding your thoughts into the mix. The movement is growing, the media attention is growing, and we are going to win. I was amazed at first that I was partaking in this, but it has become a mission, and I for one will not let up. Nothing short of Jericho coming back for season two is acceptable.
   
   This is unprecedented and it will change history...and it will bring Jericho back to where it belongs.
   
   Fight on, Rangers!

   You know it is really difficult to find a show these days that manages to engauge the whole family interest. The Jericho managed to do just that. Why is it that CBS cannot understand what they have. Everything that could possibly be done to ruin the ratings of a series was done and still the loyal viewers stayed with the show to the end. Now CBS is trying to force feed us facts about how they came to thier decission to cancel. The NUTS campaign and support from people in the industry is the only way we stand a chance to bring CBS to thiere senses, or at least I hope it will. Thank you for your support.

   Keep the NUTS coming. I was hooked on the show before it even aired. Just reading the season premears made me a fan. Jericho is one of the most origional and thought provoking shows on CBS for many years.If CBS doesn't bring it back, at least some other network should pick it up, and continue the story.

   I hardly ever watch television since most of what's out there is nothing but season after season of absolute crap. But every once in a while something good comes along, and more often then not the network cancels it after a season or less. It's infuriating - I'm sick of it. Today I contributed my own order of nuts to the cause. Enjoy it CBS. This Canadian is not about to surrender!

   Jericho is one of and possibly the only new show on TV now. I am sick of all of these stupid reality shows, TV is for entertainment and Jericho provides that. Nuts to CBS, don't tak off Jericho!!!!!

1. Robert Says:
   May 29th, 2007 at 15:40

   Instead of canceling Jericho maybe CBS should be looking in house to see who the moron was that put this show against Fox's Idol!!!! And lets not forget that fact that the same morons took the show off for 6 weeks with barely any notice when it would return. This show was the only show I HAD to watch (not tivo). If the networks think that all they have to do is make the mind numbing reality tv shows then they are truely mistaken. Wonder why cable shows have been winning your viewers? TV is suppose to be able getting away from reality and getting into fantasy. If you dont want the show sell it to a cable network and let them make it a great show WE ALL know it is!!!!
