"Another fine series suspiciously cancelled" 5 out of 5 stars.
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.
Extremely addictive and fun to watch, however once again I believe this show was cancelled more because of it's Political ramifications than any fudged ratings that CBS may have used to justify said cancellation. CBS themselves said that they brought back the second season due to the largest fan outcry they had ever witnessed. Well if that was the case, how could the ratings have been so low? hmmmmmmm. perhaps the subject matter was too close to the truth for the "Powers that be" to allow to continue.
Editorial Review:
JERICHO is a drama about what happens when a nuclear mushroom cloud suddenly appears on the horizon plunging the residents of a small peaceful Kansas town into chaos leaving them completely isolated and wondering if they're the only Americans left alive. But in this time of crisis as sensible people become paranoid personal agendas take over and well-kept secrets threaten to be revealed some people will find an inner strength they never knew they had and the most unlikely heroes will emerge.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating: NR UPC: 097361375847 Manufacturer No: 137584

Was extremely sorry to see this series end. I could have watched at least another 2 seasons. Like the televised ending better than the alternate.
jericho season 2 2 out of 5 stars.

Didnt enjoy it even half as much as the first season but i just had to watch it for the characters. Not recomended.
Jericho final season for good reason 3 out of 5 stars.

I enjoyed the first season of Jericho but perhaps it was because of the novelty of the story. The second and final season was not so good. I blame the directing and writing because the actors should have been great. The level of emotion was always the same no real highs and lows, absolutely no humor.
must have 5 out of 5 stars.

Smallville without the monsters... 3 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.
I like Skeet Ulrich and, seduced by nice box design, I had high hopes for this series. Which weren't exactly dashed, but it didn't really deliver either.
The box is stickered-up (in the UK) with "LOST" comparisons but, frankly, other than it being survivor orientated nothing else is remotely similar. The 'mystery' somehow lacks much interest. I found that I never really cared about who had blown-up the cities and, in fact, it's pretty much revealed halfway in. It lacks the surrealism of Lost, with its weird non-sequiturs and bizarre coincidences and, most importantly, it lacks Lost's fabulously diverse, if frequently irritating, characters. It simply does not have the intensity or charge of that programme.
If I was to compare it to anything I'd say it was more like Smallville, but without the monster of the week and the special powers. It has that same homely small-town feeling, and the romances and in-family bickering are very reminiscent, with Jake's parents being a sort of real-life equivalent of Jonathan & Martha. I found that while a few characters were likeable (the IRS Mimi, Jake himself, Dale, and, best of all, Hawkins) there wasn't really much to compel you through it.
It's relatively 'realistic', for TV, but there were still little aggravations, like everyone burning upwards of 30 candles at any one time in their living rooms and none of them old stubs. Always lovely fresh new candles every time. How many candles would a small town have? With every family burning 30 a night, and an average of three days or so as a maximum burn time for a pillar candle, I reckon they should have run out in the second week. Likewise they were always b*tching about petrol (gas), but no-one ever hesitated to jump into a vehicle and dash off. And don't even start me on the tank, which they had in a barn and didn't pull out to use till the last minute, even although they were under threat of imminent invasion.
These things could have been overlooked if it had offered more intrigue but, bordering on pedestrian as it was, it only served to highlight the series' failure to engage. Good enough, but not great. And life's too short to watch something that isn't great.

Jericho 5 out of 5 stars.

Intriguing concept. I think that this show turned a lot of people off because they did not want to accept an America that turned against itself. Self preservation and self sustainment can sure prove selfish.
