Watch it!
The second season starts next month, same night as BB9, so you still have time to catch up on the first season. All the episodes are still at cbs.com. I was ready to pass on it after watching the first episodes, but told myself to give it one more shot, and after the second, i was hooked! |

Thanks Jane. It seems so long ago. I think I will have to watch the last episode to refresh my memory. _________________

I have never watched this show, but I notice a lot of discussion about it. What is it about? _________________ "If you're not on somebody's shit list, you're not doing anything worthwhile." |

Here's a really good synopsis from Wikipedia:
| Quote: | The storyline revolves around the residents of Jericho, a small, rural Kansas town, in the aftermath of nuclear attacks on twenty-three major cities in the contiguous United States. The series begins with a visible nuclear detonation of unknown origin over nearby Denver, Colorado, and a loss of power and modern communications, effectively isolating Jericho. Later, power is restored to Jericho by what is alluded to as the efforts of the U.S. government, but soon after, an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) disables all electronics. Several themes regularly addressed in the show are gathering of information, community identity, public order, limited resources, the value of family, and internal and external threats. The show also features several mysteries involving the backgrounds of major characters, the perpetrators of the attack, and the extent of damage to the United States and its government.
The pivotal character in this story is Jake Green, the 32-year-old son of Mayor Johnston Green, who briefly returns home to visit his family and friends before becoming stranded as a result of the catastrophe. After a somewhat awkward return home and a tense reunion with his father, Jake steps up to become a leader in Jericho, fighting to protect the town and its citizens. As the people of Jericho struggle to survive in a changed world, most remain unaware that one of the newest residents, Robert Hawkins, knows much more about the attacks than he lets on. |
*Jake Green is played by Skeet Ulrich, the hottie in my avatar  |
