As some of you may know, CBS has canceled the show Jericho after one season on Air...
In response to this, Jericho fans across the globe have started protesting in the form of Nuts (a reference to a script line made by the main character in the final episode)... shipments to the Offices at CBS in New York. At this stage 52000 Lb's of Nuts have arrived at their Doorstep. Click Here to see the site that is taking the Orders for the Protest...

Can't the yanks do what the British do and condense a series into a couple of episodes, I mean seriously Lost and Desperate Housewives have gone on for too long.
What starts off as a interesting concept rapidly turns into a monster with too many stories to follow and so many episodes that start to fall away from the original story that contained the catalyst for its beginning! Lost should of been over BY NOW!!

LOST has been confirmed for 6 seasons (they just finished season 3 in the US). Jericho was a bit "meh" to me - good concept but just had a bit of a B grade feel to it - should have been set in the city instead of some boring hick town.

Firefly is another good example of shows wrongly cancelled.
The problem with Lost is i dont think they expected it to be so popular, so they ran out of ideas, but of course if its popular you gotta keep throwing out episodes no matter the quality! All these stories written by hack writers about killer alien smoke and evil polar bears...bah humbug!! |

It started slowly but the episodes in the 2nd half if the 1st season (most of which 10 are yet to air) lifted the bar considerably

it was a huge effort to get jericho back, and has a lot of networks questioning the way they gather their ratings
