Man that would be sweet. This is honestly the third sorry I've read about it coming back. Hopefully they do it justice, and this isn't going to get scrubbed

I am surprised you guys think so highly of a series that was basically about a bunch of mostly white guy neonazi types that set off a bunch of nukes in the us.

I'm pretty sure netflix has all the jericho episodes streaming, I bet you they got a ton of views which peaked netflix's interest.

Did this show pick up? I watched the first six or so episodes and was bored out of my mind.

So, I guess if they're white and republican they must be NeoNazies?  |

Netflix streaming has the whole thing. That's where I finally watched it. The thing that screwed Jericho for me was that the "hero" was such a complete screwup, and yet everybody seemed eager to follow him. That boy had to be rescued more often than Olive Oyl!
The premise that the good guys in the east v the bad guys in–– of all places–– Cheyenne, Wyoming  gutshot my suspension of disbelief. Click To View Spoiler Honestly? If it gets redone, I probably won't watch it. |

You should know a little about the show before you post negative crap about it. You are way off on your comments. Have you ever watched the show? |

Sounds like you got a problem with white people. Racist? |

CBS rushed the second season painfully hard.
It was crap compared to the first. |

It was crap compared to the first. IF they decide to bring back the show, it won't have the exact look and feel of the original series. because there will probably be different writers and actors etc on the show. The original cast and crew are like contractors and will have gone on to something else. and will be very difficult to get them all together at the same time again. |

Better plot line than the government running false flag operations in Mexico in order to enact tougher gun laws..... Oh wait.... |

WRONG. i know for a fact that even the writers did the writing for the "graphic novel series", (comics), AND, i know pretty much first hand that most of the key actors would continue to work this show if brought back. |
