'Jericho' fans to CBS: Save our show again!

I've never seen Jericho, so I can't say whether or not the show's die-hard fans are wasting their time with their latest campaign to save it. I will say their TV spot highlights how their first attempt was ultimately unsuccessful, which is an odd way of raising awareness for their second turn at bat, but maybe network execs should just take the hint already and give the show some real legs to stand on. It can’t be any worse than the current deluge of network shows that rotate between America’s Next Top B-Level Celebrity and Rich White People’s Leisure Time, can it?

Thanks for posting about the efforts to Save Jericho.

CBS Paramount, the show's production company is in talks with other parties to continue the show.

This Save Jericho campaign is not about getting CBS to change it's mind about airing Jericho. Instead the fans are trying to show potential buyers that they want the show back.

If you want Jericho to coninue, then please write to:
Ms. Nancy Tellem, President, CBS Paramount Network Television Entertainment Group, 4024 Radford Avenue, Studio City, CA 91604-2190.

Jericho is definitely a show worth fighting for. It would be nice if, like you said, some network exec gave it real legs to stand on. It deserved better treatment than what it received from CBS, that's for sure.
