I think he has potential but keeping us in the dark on how he knows so much is killing his character. A lot of output from very scarce character development.

I agree with you - but ironically the writing itself, it turns out, had a good deal to do with it. They threw the "nuts" story in during the marines episode (we're not giving up) and fans, very justly, used it in the campaign. The network was simply overwhelmed and had to do something about it. Of course it also makes a great media story and that doesn't hurt CBS either.

Nina Tassler, CBS President, just posted a letter on the official Jericho message board.
Below is a message from CBS Entertainment.
June 6, 2007
To the Fans of Jericho:
Wow!
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

Hawkins did some radio interviews this morning. This page has a couple of them saved as mp3s.

I realized something today.
This concerns me: "But, for there to be more ?Jericho,? we will need more viewers."
The viewers who made the pleas to bring the show bring it back have almost no effect on its longevity. It's up to the antiquated Nielsen system that has no variable for VCR users, as far as I know.
It upsets me that everything tv related is tied to advertising which is tied to somebody marking a box on a sheet of paper... Total bee ess.
