Is anyone else watching this show? If so, what do you think?

Im finding its a bit like Lost in that there are plenty of unanswered questions, which starts to get a bit frustrating. The thing I do like is that Aus gets each episode only hours after the US; so no spoilers  Grin

I have been watching this from the start and think it is one of the better new shows on TV this Fall.  The acting and story line is intriguing.  You are seeing the best and worst in people brought out by the situation they are in.  I can't wait to find out who launched the attack on the United States and why and who the black gentleman really is!  He is very knowledgeable on so many issues but seems to be associated with maybe a survivalist group.

Quickest synopsis is.... US gets nuked & a small town (Jericho) tries to deal with the aftermath + figuring out what's going on without any news...  There have been 4? episodes so far & it's much better than I thought it would be...

Sounds cool. Neville Shute wrote a thought provoking novel about this decades ago, although in that one I think it was the Australians who lasted longest so the novel was mostly about them (bigger nuke I suppose). Sounds worth a look Smiley

Same title, different story.  Robert is a 1950's detective in our Jericho.

The season isnt finished (channel 10 lies), but the US takes a break over the xmas holiday and so we have to as well, because we are seeing each episode only a day after the states. So it should be back soon!

ohh I thought that it was odd cause the last ep didnt seem like any type of cliffhanger like they usually are!

so hopefully it will be back on sooner than i had expected  Grin
