Beginning this blog with a rebirth


As some of you may already know, the TV show "Jericho" is back on air after being canceled by CBS program planners and incredibly saved by creative and everfighting fans, with banners, online petitions and... nuts. Read more about this story here (TV.com), here (JerichoLives) and there (NutsOnline). :) I am so glad this serie has a chance to survive. The plot is one the most intriguing I had the luck to see. At least 7 new episodes are programmed and then... It seems that CBS executives asked the fans to do "their part of the deal" by getting other people to watch the TV show so that the audience would meet CBS audience goals... Ironic, cynical even, but so pragmatical.


Those outside of the USA will not be able to watch the episodes on CBS.com but you already can order the DVDs of the first season on the net.


Skeet Ulrich (imdb) is the main character of this drama-fiction, and the geeks will recognize him right away, as he played Kevin Mitnick in 'Hackers 2: Takedown' (2000), and others might remember him from 'Scream' (1996) ;)

Below you will find some videos from fans I posted, but you can find a lot more directly on YouTube, I guess Dailymotion will catch up as soon as Jericho starts in Europe.





The answer from CBS...




...and finally a goofy video from the actors of the serie to thank their fans :)
