via Save Jericho Now MySpace Jericho, the little show that could will be repeating it’s first season starting July 6th! So tune in to CBS next Friday at 9p to see the show that so many people went nuts over!!!
So are you wondering what the heck those Jericho fans went so nut over, well now is your time to find out. CBS announced today that they will be airing season 1 on Fridays at 9p starting on July 6th. They will air the pilot on the 6th and the following week air a recap episode of episodes 1-12 at 8p and then at 9p air the spring season premiere episode 13. The remaining episodes of the season will play out in the Friday 9p slot. Seriously you should check out this show because it really is one of the best, most original, heartfelt shows on TV this season. I instantly fell in love with this show and thankfully CBS took notice and renewed the show.
So please please please please please please check out this show, so CBS realizes they didn’t make a mistake picking up this gem for a second season.
On that note Stephen Chbosky, executive producer of Jericho previewed the second season of the show for The Pittsburgh Post.
“It’s a lower budget, there’s less money for guest stars, less money for recurring cast, we’re trying to make the numbers work right now. In season two we want to investigate and explore Cheyenne and a line producer could say, if we explore Cheyenne, we’ll never be able to afford it and Cheyenne may come to Jericho now.” He added, “‘Jericho’ is a very different show for CBS and CBS has not been known as the network that appeals to the online community as much or the DVD-buying community as much. Back when they bought the pilot, they wanted this to be the flagship show for them to try this stuff out and learn about this and their learning curve is the same as ours. The executives over there had never done this before. This was a real lesson for CBS and good for their other shows in the future.” He also doesn’t mind how many episodes they were brought back, “You don’t have to stretch anything out. It’ll be seven episodes with a great cliffhanger at the end.” Not another cliffhanger, but this time they will be prepared if the ratings slip, “We know how to wrap up the show if we have to,” he said. “Ultimately it will depend when they put us on the schedule, but it could be as early as October and in that case we will have time to wrap it up if necessary.”
So once again please tune in to CBS on July 6th and watch Jericho!
Over the past few weeks you have put forth an impressive and probably unprecedented display of passion in support of a prime time television series. You got our attention; your emails and collective voice have been heard.
As a result, CBS has ordered seven episodes of “Jericho†for mid-season next year. In success, there is the potential for more. But, for there to be more “Jericho,†we will need more viewers.
A loyal and passionate community has clearly formed around the show. But that community needs to grow. It needs to grow on the CBS Television Network, as well as on the many digital platforms where we make the show available.
We will count on you to rally around the show, to recruit new viewers with the same grass-roots energy, intensity and volume you have displayed in recent weeks.
At this time, I cannot tell you the specific date or time period that “Jericho†will return to our schedule. However, in the interim, we are working on several initiatives to help introduce the show to new audiences. This includes re-broadcasting “Jericho†on CBS this summer, streaming episodes and clips from these episodes across the CBS Audience Network (online), releasing the first season DVD on September 25 and continuing the story of Jericho in the digital world until the new episodes return. We will let you know specifics when we have them so you can pass them on.
On behalf of everyone at CBS, thank you for expressing your support of “Jericho†in such an extraordinary manner. Your protest was creative, sustained and very thoughtful and respectful in tone. You made a difference.
Sincerely,
Nina Tassler
President, CBS Entertainment
P.S. Please stop sending us nuts 🙂

Ya freaking hoo!!! I am so bloody happy, I can’t begin to tell you!!! Thank you CBS!
Guys when CBS puts Jericho back on the air we have to watch live! And then go to another TV and watch it on Tivo/DVR before 2a, so we give the show double the ratings. We can’t let CBS think they made a mistake! We just got a second season, let’s try to get a third!!!
Also thanks to all the people who sent nuts and to NutsOnline for making this happen!!
Long live Jericho!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
