Thoughts on things from the news, TV, radio, and daily life that hit home with me. |
Jericho's first show back on the air was the pilot episode. I think that was a good way to go. Those of us who love the series didn't mind a refresher on key cast members' full character names, and it was a perfect way to introduce new viewers to those same characters. Nice thinking on the part of the network. And today, a promo for the series said that this coming Friday's episode will be a TWO HOUR one. And I LOVE THAT IDEA TOO. Can you tell I'm enthusiastic here? This will be a great way to give the viewers, old AND new, a good look at the situation and the characters. To get to know them, and what's going on. THey made a mistake in cancelling the show, but it sure looks to me like they've got the right idea for starting it up again. Hopefully we can develop an audience that will support this quality show. For those that hadn't heard, it's on Friday nights at 9:00 on CBS, right before Numb3rs. If you haven't watched it before, please give it a chance, and for more than one episode. If you like well written, well acted, high quality drama, with a touch of humor, and definitely believable characters and situations, this show should be on your "must see" list. OK, I'll get down off my soapbox for a while. But I won't apologize for my enthusiasm for such a high quality, enjoyable show. ' |
