It's the 2nd paragraph from the bottom.

Personally? I loved Jericho and want it to stay on the air. At the VERY LEAST to have an ending....

Mal-licious

I'm going to add cursing and the hurling about of things to my repertoire.

A Jericho miniseries or movie would be all manner of shiny. . .

I liked Jericho very much.

I hope like Farscape it gets some closure.

Great news about Jericho! Really hope it happens. A TV-movie or miniseries isn't as good as a 22-episode second season, but it's a whole lot better than nothing. And with it ending on a cliffhanger like that, any kind of resolution is welcome...

Not sure how they could wrap up Jericho in anything less than at least a five episode (five hours total) mini series. Even then it is bound to feel rushed and miss things.

TNT is rumored to be looking at picking up Jericho. Let's hope it happens.

I never did get into Jericho (stopped watching CBS after they took off Threshold). What exactly was the premise?

Someone (eventually revealed as a terrorist attack) nuked the major American cities, causing American society to collapse (no TV, no radio signals, no air traffic, no centralized government, etc). It's post-apocalypse, but the apocalypse is more economic than physical (more Dark Angel than Mad Max --though roving tribes of bandits and "government authorized" mercenaries are wandering the countryside).

The whole ordeal is seen through the perceptions of Jericho, Kansas, where Richard Hawkins (a man with a mysterious past, familiarity with terrorist tactics and FBI procedures, and a mysterious connection to the bombs --shades of our favourite Shepherd) has just arrived.

Also recently returned is the Mayor's black-sheep younger son, Jake (his brother Eric is basically the town's "prince"), who also refuses to talk about where he's been for the past five years, and seems to know a great deal about military procedure and guerilla combat tactics.

After the bombs, the "retaliation" (American ICBM nukes launching and flying away) and the EMP pulse (from one of "our" nukes detonating in midair), every small town ends up as its own little kingdom, suddenly unable to rely on food and water shipped in from Big City distributors. The season leads up to a war between Jericho and the neighbouring town of New Bern (meanwhile, Hawkins' past is slowly explored). In the background, the government (or at least a government) starts to re-establish itself, but Jericho's problems are a more immediate concern.
