I agree with so many reviewers, specifically those that see how much stronger a 13 episode season could be for a series like this.

The mystery, action, thriller, and drama elements are all sound.

The acting and plot were suspect to me in the beginning. That soon changed as the characters developed. These actors were put the test in some deep moments.

I definitely recommend this to those with patience, understanding, and a love for conspiracies turned reality.

Sure it's formulaic, but they do it well with a wide range of distinct characters and along the way tackle some real issues. And here I am in 2021 rewatching it because it beats everything being made 15 years later.

You've seen a myriad of garbage tv shows parade across your screen, some with 5+ seasons of mediocrity. This is not that show. Every bit as engaging as it was 15+ years ago, it's really worth a watch. Is the production value up to snuff in 2021? No, but its still great writing, a great premise, and decent acting. If you like TWD but could lose the zombies, take a look.

It's a great series that deserved more of a fighting chance. It's easy to understand the many ardent fans of the show, but hard to understand Jericho's failure to attract more viewers than it did. The show is engaging, to the point of being dangerously addicting and whatever it lacks (see below), that's more than made up for by a consistently inventive story expansion. The show moves seamlessly from the original premise of 'USA - post nuke' into much unexpected territory. There's some filler episodes, but barely a bum one. What hampers the series is that odd but inevitable 'dated' feeling that almost all network dramas fail to shake, even the minute they arrive on our screens. Dramas like this just can't live up to the HBO/AMC cannon because of the demands on them to, eg: appeal to a large audience and produce 22-ish episodes per series - it can be simply backbreaking. One can't help but imagine how much better this show could have been with a studio like HBO behind it. It certainly deserves more care, with which it might have not been cancelled. Nevertheless, the fact one can imagine Jericho's greater potential is a credit to the strength of both the inventive writing, the smart political commentary and the many well-drawn characters which shine through occasional soft-focus, feel-good, pre-watershed moments of schmaltz and sentimentality. Those moments are thankfully few, but there's enough to make you wish there were less. The cast are all very capable, particularly Skeet Ulrich, Lennie James and Gerald McRaney who lend the show its gravitas. Bring it back! 4/5

Loved this show love love the cast. Would have loved 90% less drama music at every single touching moment but oh well still loved it. Reminded me of walking dead without the zombies

Truly one of the best TV shows of all time. Jericho is great for those who enjoy post-apocalyptic shows. It had quite a cult following in its day too.

I watched jericho a few time but this is the first time I watched all the way through. It has some sad moments and some excitement moments. I am disappointed on how they left it. I wish they had done another season. I need to know what happens next.but overall I enjoyed it.

So often I lament the passing of quality broadcast commercial television and then something new, challenging, such as Jericho shows up.

I think it is certainly timely in light of threats from without and perhaps even within our nation.

I was concerned that the 2nd season was not going to measure up as the first episode was rather shaky but it picked up and ended with a bang.

I am glad that CBS brought it back for a finale.

Casting was excellent and I am still astonished at the quality of the writing and plotting. Just so well done.

"Jericho" was one of those TV series that came into my life during a time when I was craving a good post-apocalyptic story. From the moment I started watching it back in 2006, I was hooked. It offered a unique blend of small-town charm, survivalist grit, and the intrigue of a world plunged into chaos.

The premise was straightforward yet compelling. After a series of mysterious nuclear attacks on major U. S. cities, the residents of Jericho, a small Kansas town, found themselves isolated and forced to confront the harsh realities of life in a world that had suddenly turned hostile. The series excelled in portraying the initial shock and confusion of the characters as they grappled with the enormity of the situation.

One of the standout aspects of "Jericho" was its characters. These were ordinary people thrust into extraordinary circumstances, and their struggles felt genuine and relatable. The show's protagonist, Jake Green, played by Skeet Ulrich, embodied the rugged hero archetype. His return to Jericho after years of absence added depth to the story and gave us a flawed yet compelling central character to follow.

The ensemble cast was solid, and each character had their moments to shine. I found myself invested in the lives of the Green family, the Hawkins family, and the town's quirky residents. Their interactions, conflicts, and alliances made "Jericho" more than just a survival story; it was about the resilience of the human spirit.

The world-building in "Jericho" was another strong point. The series explored the challenges of survival in a world with limited resources and the constant threat of outside forces. It raised thought-provoking questions about morality, leadership, and the lengths people would go to protect their loved ones.

However, "Jericho" wasn't without its flaws. The pacing could be uneven at times, with certain episodes feeling slower compared to the high-stakes drama that characterized the series. The first season was particularly strong, but the second season, shortened due to budget constraints, felt rushed and left some storylines unresolved.

The show's cancellation after the second season left many fans disappointed and wanting more. While a graphic novel continuation provided some closure, it couldn't fully satisfy the appetite for answers and resolution that had built up over the series.

In hindsight, my journey with "Jericho" was a memorable one. It offered a fresh take on the post-apocalyptic genre, filled with memorable characters and thought-provoking scenarios. While it may not have reached the lofty heights of some other TV series, "Jericho" holds a special place in my heart as a solid 7/10 experience, and I'm glad I took that journey into the heart of a town fighting for survival.

My second favorite TV show of all time. It deserved at least two more seasons but they production team wrapped it up in a satisfying way with what they were given.

I really found this show refreshing. Its not the greatest show ever but it was entertaining. The show gives the feel of Saturday morning serials (fast paced and leaving you with a cliff-hanger). I loved the underlying messages to our current governmental situation. I just learned that it was not to be picked up again. I can't believe CBS is cancelling the show after the response they received after it was cancelled the first time. I hope that some other network (ie. SciFi) will try to carry on the series (sort of like Battlestar Galactica) to a complete and thorough conclusion even if it doesn't fit the usual format of a least five years.

I have watched faithfully each week so far and am thoroughly enjoying the show. It is probably my third favorite right now behind Lost and Heroes. The premise of the show is fascinating and thrilling. Very unique. I was excited from the moment I saw the first preview - and so far I haven't been let down. Is it realistic? No probably not. Is is predictable? Yeah, pretty much. But it's a TV show. What TV show is 100% realistic? Viewers are meant to let go of reality and absorb themselves in the fictional world for an hour once per week. It has great character development (who is good and who is bad?). It has mystery. Romance. Action. For those who watch and then hack it to death on the boards - I say stop worrying so much about whether things would really happen that way and enjoy the weekly ride. It's been fun for me so far...

How can a show like this be canceled and show like the Crawling Dead survive. Especially after one full season. Great story line, could have went on for seasons. Season two was shortened and consolidated but still was great all to the episode before the last. Yes, this series had filler episodes, but they used it appropriately for character development and not to make it to mid-season/season finale. The threats were real, the fights were intense, and you felt the struggle. No pointless dialogue just to avoid getting ahead of a comic book because of lack of writing material. The villains were believable and didn't need a whole season to give them their story, or had to wait till the season opener, mid-season, or season finale to see them in action.

I wish this show was a Netflix or Amazon, or streaming service original.

"Jericho" is by far, the best new show of 2006. I watched the pilot episode on CBS and I was extremely impressed with it. The acting, storyline, and the whole premise of the show is fantastic! I even got teary eyed a few times through the show. That is a rare thing for me. I usually never get teary eyed during a show or a movie. However, "Jericho" is a whole different kind of show. It was actually suspenseful and even a little bit scary!

I would definitely recommend this show to fans of the drama/sci-fi genres. Actually, I would recommend it to just about anyone! If you're looking for a good time watching TV, then this is the show you should be watching. I definitely enjoyed it, and I know you will enjoy it too.

This show was the best television offered in a long time, in my opinion. I think this version of an apocalyptic scenario was more widely accepted because of it's realism. I also think that was the reason it was cancelled. When I first heard of the show I was immediately interested and watched all of the episodes in a couple of days. People just about always say it was cancelled because of ratings. I don't think so. Check the ratings yourself, Jericho's ratings were just as good as or better than Fringe and Burn Notice (I watch those). Those two are still going strong. And Jericho had way better ratings than a lot of other shows that are still on. The order was given by the big wigs in charge to axe it, so it was axed. Once yo pull your head out of the sand and do some honest research, you will find that the people who control your government and the people who control your television, movies, news, radio, etc. usually are one in the same or at least run in the same circles of powerful people. If you ever get a chance to watch it and read the subsequent season 3 comics, then do yourself a favor and do it. If you have an IQ over 75 then you will realize by the end of the first season why it was cancelled. Sorry, I really went off on a tangent there. Besides all of what I said, Jericho was really well acted, very well written, and you will be wanting more when you are finished. The Best.

The idea was fine but they went astray. Instead of sticking with the main story line they decided to meander into soapy territory far too often.

There are some good lessons to be learned from this show, though I doubt that anyone in a position to make decisions to implement contingency plans for small rural towns would have watched this show.

For me, the worst thing about this type of show is how stupid the characters can be. They often seem to make snap decisions without proper discussion. And what discourse there is often ends in bitterness. It just makes me want to bang their heads together and tell them to use a bit of logical thinking.

I know it's the current way of editing shows but switching so frequently from one story line to another for a couple of minutes then back to the previous story line becomes annoying. One minute your watching a tense life threatening situation unfold then your switched to a scene where someones thinking about what their life could have been.

Verdict: Has its moments of greatness but also has

many frustrating/annoying moments.

I was disappointed in how this series didn't get off to the best start but it sure kept getting better. I loved how it explored the American core ideal of resilience and always coming back after any catastrophe. The lead actor Skeet Ulrich was good but Lennie James's performance always stole the stage.

What do you get when you cross a Hallmark movie and the end of the world (or the end of the country)? Jericho. Much of the first season felt like a soap opera, but as it progressed and especially in the second season, the show moved away from that and matured into something really good. Sadly, it was canceled just as it picked up momentum. Its strengths include an interesting and plausible story about a terror attack on US soil, and the character Robert Hawkins. You don't know for sure where he stands for a good bit of the show's run. This would be a good show to bring back and modernize. The way it ended, it could be possible to bring back much of the original cast and continue the story a decade later.

This is a good show.

Jericho is a very mysterious show that opens with a really good pilot episode that I would have to say is easily one of the very best pilot episodes I have ever seen in my entire life, and that includes the pilot episode of Lost which was really phenomenal. They are similar because both shows have a lot of tension in the pilots and a huge mystery surrounding the survivors that will get the viewers hooked, I really loved it.

The acting is pretty good and the story holds up for the entire first season, haven't seen season two yet.
