I just read the post about Netflix canceling shows quickly.
Anybody remember the CBS Show Jericho with Skeet Ulrich, around 2006-2007. The concept of that show was amazing. It was canceled after 2 seasons and fans got up in arms and CBS brought it back and kind of closed the loop of the story.
But the concept was great and offers endless possibilities for writing. It involve nuclear attack, tensions and conflicts with neighboring towns, CIA involvement, states splitting off and forming their separate country.
All that to say, that this idea would be a great series with Netflix or Apple behind. The show had the cheesy low budget production values that we saw on drama shows from the Big 3 back then.

Love this show. Have rewatched quite a bit. The premise has always intrigued me. I think the creators made a comic that extended the story even further. It went off the rails from what I remember.

If you liked this show you should check out the book series one second after. Similar premise but with an EMP. I think a show is coming out for it.

Was there a third season? I only see 2 available to stream. I started watching it but stopped only a few episodes in because I saw it was cancelled before wrapping up the story.

Jericho was awesome.

I do remember a step down with the second season and some of the subplots were a little dumb. But I loved that show and always mention it in the “shows cancelled too early” threads.

I remember we had a decent following on here and we used to wish it would be picked up by someone else.
