Jericho: Discussion Thread

[Evan]

My favorite new show!

I'm loving the SL.

Skeet Ulrich is doing great in the lead role, and he's a hunk too(when is he gonna get his shirt off?).

I can't wait to see where this one goes. It certainly makes you think about the effect of a major nuclear war on the world.

I'm loving this show.

CBS is kicking major ass with their fall line-up.

"Jericho" and "Smith" are my favorite new shows. I'm really wrapped up in "Jericho." There's so many questions, especially with that guy Hawkins who seems to know a whole lot and is being very secretive.

I'm really enjoying Jericho too. I like the cast and I'm interested to see what happened and how the town will survive.

i like it too i might like it better than LOST if Lost keeps up with the will they or wont they escape from the others routine.

This last episode was good. I wonder what Hawkins is up to? He seems to be a good guy, but is just keeping secrets for whatever reason. It seems like he and the mayor's son (can't think of his name) have both been in the military or at least had some kind of military like training. I want to know what he was going to tell his father, before his father said it wasn't necessary for him to know.

That would be Jake Green. Jake and Hawkins seem to be the only two characters I can remember by name. Generally, I've never been good at remembering names of characters on primetime shows, even those that I watch all the time. Yet, somehow, I can name every character and actor names of all four soaps that I watch. LOL!

Jake and Hawkins are by far the most interesting characters. Every week, I'm dying to find out more about their back stories. When Jack's father stopped him from spilling what he had been up to while away from Jericho, I wanted to yell at the TV. LOL!

If you want to get more insight into Hawkins and what he knows and been up to on his computer, check out this week's Jericho's on-line supplement, "Countdown."

Also, did you know that during the opening titles of each episode, there is a different Morse code message related to that particular episode? So far, they have been:

Ep. 1 - "Jericho Pilot"

Ep. 2 - "Jericho Fallout"

Ep. 3 - "Jericho Three"

Ep. 4 - "He Knows Rob"

Ep. 5 - "There Is a Fire"

Ep. 6 - "The EMP Hits"

Thanks for the link crc. I think it's easier to remember names in daytime because we see those characters everyday for years. I found the supplement pretty chilling as I do the whole show. It's been awhile since I've thought of a nuclear attack as a real possibility, but of course it is.

I'm pretty convinced that Hawkins is a good guy, although it might be more interesting if he isn't. I wonder how he knew what was going to happen and why he didn't warn people? Maybe it was unstoppable and he didn't want to cause a panic. If he really was working for the otherside why not get out of Dodge? In fact, even if he was loyal to the US why not get his family out of Dodge, even if he wanted to stay and help himself. Unless, no where else is any safer. Maybe it's not so much a nuclear attack, as a world wide nuclear war.

I didn't know about the morse code message either. I like it when shows have those extra little things to figure out.

[SIPort]

I didn't think I'd like the show. I find it interesting, though. I'm glad it got a full season pickup

[Tishy]

Wednesday is my new Thursday. All my favorites areon. I love Jericho, have from the start. Jake has chemistry with everyone. Hawkins is such an enigma, I have to watch because I want to know what he is doing next.

[WTGH]

I wish the stories had longer arcs. I love the show but I'm not sold on the "one episode perils".

With thugs coming to town this week, it should be interesting!

[Toadstool]

Agree. It's almost as if they've put LOST on an ER platform. Even just a few more ongoing elements might make all the difference.

[crc]

The Morse code message in the opening for episode 7 was "Pray For NYC."

Jericho: my favorite new show this year.

I agree, Jake and Hawkins are the 2 most interesting characters on the show.

I hope Hawkins is a good guy.

Skeet Ulrich: that guy is a hunk!
