Shame on you,CBS. after all the criticism you've gotten this past year.never going to learn.whose faultwas it for the long hiatus. Instead of shows of good context you opt for more brainless mush.Someday there'll be no more major networks.couldn't happen fast enough. Like everyone else My family enjoyed Jericho. What a disappointment. You better rethink this one.PLEASE RECONSIDER. Dinor8er

Kid Nation - Okay, let's screw up some more kids. Can we keep a show on the air that is different and causes people to think! Keep a show on the air that is unique with a plot that is believable. KEEP JERICHO Oh and by the way can you forget the midseason breaks and the repeats in November and December and January and February and March and April. Isn't it bad enough we have to watch them all summer and half of fall. I want a show that each week I can be involved in! A show that I can't wait to sit down and watch!!!

Just great! Thanks for cancelling about the only decent show on your network. You'll keep *** like Survivor around for YEARS but not a great, innovated show like Jericho. You want people to stay loyal yet you take it off the air for a long hiatus ... um, isn't that you're own fault?!?!?! Get a clue! I'm so sick and tired of getting into a new show only to get screwed by the networks. I won't be watching ANY new programming and will stick with cable channels that are A LOT more reliable. You just lost a loyal viewer CBS. Way to go!

Just Great. CBS do us a favor and get a clue. There is no way you will get me to watch a show about some kids doing a survivor type show. Please get a grip. You took the only show a 41/M with in your target demographics wathces with his family. We even have great discussions about it, and it brought back family values. Oh sorry, values is a foreign concept to you. Why not sell the smut you have now, since its all gutter material in the first place. Please do the intelligent people a favor and relinguish the rights to Jericho to a network that will handle it better than you incompetent people.

MAJOR, MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT!!! I was a bit skeptical about Jericho in the beginning, but the richness of the characters and the real-world possibilities brought forth in each episode created an amazing and gritty atmosphere that made you hungry for more! Sadly, something horrific like this could really happen, and it was so mezmerizing to see how the insanity of such a situation was being handled by the various entities!
This was NOT A GOOD DECISION!! It's CBS's fault that there was such a gap in the airing...who cares about basketball??? Preempt other shows and leave Jericho alone. Shows like this get our brains buzzing with interest. Reality shows and other brain-killers are a waste of time and have very little to offer the viewing public in general! I guess I'll have to rechange my opinion of CBS and the intelligence of its programmers!!!!! Let's see what's on ABC and NBC.

Why oh why did I come back to network television for Jericho only to have CBS yank it after one season. I will not watch reality TV, I am smarter than that. I like to use my brain on thought provoking shows not the drivel you have replaced Jericho with. Kid survivor??? please, aren't todays kid's screwed up enough already? Jericho was one of the best shows and it deserved better. Shame on you CBS!

I am really disappointed that you cancelled Jericho. I find this really disturbing since this was your fault to begin with. Had you not taken that huge break in the middle of the season, Jericho would still be on the air. You can flood the TV with CSI's but can't keep a great show like Jericho on the air. I strongly believe you need to go back and rethink your position on cancelling this show. Is the person who decided to take the break in the middle of the season the same person who has decided to cancel Jericho. If so maybe their job should be cancelled.

Add my name to the list of people who are deeply disappointed about the cancellation of "Jericho". I actually had to read the article twice--I thought I must be dreaming. I plan on calling the phone number of Les Moonves and personally protesting. Why do the TV networks keep cancelling all the good new shows? What are they going to do, give us more "reality" shows? I truly believe they do not care about the viewers--which seems odd to me, since aren't we the ones they are supposed to be making the shows for?

Congratulations, CBS! After taking a great show like Jericho (the only drama on CBS worth watching)and putting it on seemingly endless hiatus, you guys opt to cancel it because it lost its viewership and "ran out of steam." Programming, it seems, requires no special talent at CBS, and not even basic common sense. I truly hope that whatever Barnaby Jones rehash replaces this truly innovative show, dies on the vine, and that the proper executive heads roll.

What a disgrace!
