Jericho - the TV series — Forum Archive

Don't think this has ever been shown in the UK, so have any of our American cousins watched this?

Nice idea - major US cities hit my nuclear warheads and the aftermath of how folk in a small hick town carry on following the attacks - but executed in a rather flowery style (way too much soppy incidental music for starters).

I'll stick with it for now though. Pretty easy-watching and kills a gap on the bus/tube between home and work.

Does Lennie James sound like a proper Yank though? To me he sounds like an English lad doing a truly awful impression.

It's been cancelled over here...we watched it for a bit...loved the premise, but it's all gone a bit tits up...

it's been moved around the schedule, would disappear completely for weeks...

Lennie James...I was wondering why I found Hawkins so fucking familiar...now it all makes sense...he's Alan fucking Erasmus, isn't he?

Yup.

Never watched this, is it good? Another HBO show, they're usually quite good. Channel4 used to show it at 1am or summat, didn't they? Had a mate who always stopped up to watch it.

It features Marigold from In Sickness and In Health! :lol:

The first series has just finished on ITV4. There is a second series of seven episodes that was made primarily at the fans behest to 'close' the story.

US imports currently being watched in my house are Dexter and Nip / Tuck. If you think Lennie in Jericho is bad, try Joely Richardson in Nip / Tuck.

Fucking. Awful.

a few years back, i went through all the seasons of 'oz' in about a week. it's an absolutely brilliant show, and stars michael from 'lost' and about 3/4 of the cast of the various 'law and order' franchises.
