Below The Beltway

I believe in the free speech that liberals used to believe in, the economic freedom that conservatives used to believe in, and the personal freedom that America used to believe in.

Sedition: Jericho 2.6

by @ Wednesday, March 19th, 2008. Filed under Jericho, Television

With the ratings looking worse and worse by the week, it’s fairly clear that we’re seeing the end of Jericho, at least on CBS. It could come over to The SciFi Channel even though it’s not really a good fit for that channel’s programming, but only a miracle will keep it on the CBS schedule [...]

Jericho 2.6 Sneak Preview

CBS has released a sneak preview of what looks like it will be the next to last episode of Jericho, and it looks like the show is taking another dark turn as it wraps up:

Termination For Cause: Jericho 2.5

by @ Wednesday, March 12th, 2008. Filed under Jericho, Television

When last week’s episode ended, you just knew that things weren’t going to go well for the people of Jericho. Bonnie Richmond was dead in a shootout with Ravenwood, and the one person with evidence against Ravenwood’s commander was unconscious and headed for the hospital.
This episode picks up pretty much where last week picked off. [...]

Oversight: Jericho 2.4

by @ Wednesday, March 5th, 2008. Filed under Jericho, Television

Wow.
About fifteen minutes into last night’s episode, which I watched very early this morning thanks to TiVo, I was thinking that I was in the middle of the worst episode of Jericho since it’s return. The plot seemed to be moving very slowly and there just seemed to be something off about the show. [...]

Make Or Break For Jericho

by @ Thursday, February 28th, 2008. Filed under Jericho, Television

Before this week’s episode of Jericho aired, Producer Carol Barbee was saying that it could be a make-or-break episode in determining if CBS gives them a third season:
Carol Barbee, executive producer of CBS’ post-apocalyptic drama Jericho, told SCI FI Wire that this week is make-or-break time for the resurrected show–though she will try to find [...]

Jennings & Rall: Jericho 2.3

by @ Wednesday, February 27th, 2008. Filed under Jericho, Television

We’re three episodes in to Jericho’s short, but still welcome, second season and, already I can say this — if the writing for the show had been as tight, and the plot moved as well, as it has in these three episodes, there’s no way the show would’ve been canceled back in May. In the [...]

Condor: Jericho 2.2

by @ Wednesday, February 20th, 2008. Filed under Jericho, Television

First of all, if you missed last night’s episode, you can watch it for free here or watch the rerun on Saturday night.
The good citizens of Jericho, Kansas seem to be adjusting well to the new government that has appeared in their midst. After all, the war with New Bern is over, the power is [...]

Little Apocalypse On The Prairie

by @ Tuesday, February 19th, 2008. Filed under Jericho, Television

The New York Times gives a generally positive review of Jericho’s second season:
“Jericho,” which stars Skeet Ulrich as the local vigilante and peacekeeper, has survived and improved this season as an exploration of conspiracy extremism. The bad men are spectacularly evil; the show is scarier. Yet it never feels routinely exhausting. It breathes by [...]
