Jericho Update

Jax

Carol Barbee posted this today which does hint that the deal is looking like it will go ahead for JERICHO to continue.

Dan, Karim and I are hard at work for JERICHO. These
things take time but as soon as we can announce
something concrete, you'll be the first to know.
(Well, we may call Skeet first, but you understand,
right?)

thats the bit that interests me, the full message reads...

The flowers are GORGEOUS. I am blown away. Thank
you.

You all continue to amaze and inspire me with your
thoughtfulness, your creativity and your dedication to
the show. I feel so fortunate to be part of this
family.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. You brightened my
day and reminded me again of how passionate JERICHO
fans are. Just one of the many reasons I will
continue to fight for a new home for JERICHO.

Sincerely,
Carol Barbee
 
That doesn't really give impression beyond still being in a holding pattern trying to get something to happen.
 
Since the talks are still going on, its good that CBS do want to make a deal and it seems from other reports it looks like Carol is happy so far at the progress.

I expect to hear something at somepoint in this month.
 
Thanks for the update. I'm still hopeful.

There are about a dozen sci fi shows on tap for the fall season, but other than Revolution and maybe Going Boldly Nowhere (do I have that name right?), nothing looks all that exciting. I'd rather ditch the other ten for more Jericho. :)

And give up the notion of Esai Morales as the lead for Caprica (tho he'd be abso-frakkin-lootely perfect for it).
 
Shoot. I live in SF, if only I'd paid closer attention to craigslist, I could have made $$$ yakking about Jericho. Plus free pizza and drinks.

Why is someone doing a Jericho focus group? Is this a scam?

And why the frak don't they just go around to all the places (here, TWOP, CBS obviously, etc.) where they will find more Jericho fans than they would ever need? You don't have to bribe people with cash & pizza to get them to talk about the show. It must be a scam. ;)
 
sorry to bump an old thread but do you guys see any possibility of a movie? would emmys increase the chances of a Jericho movie?
 
Recent word from Barbee suggests that things are moving ahead quickly again on a couple of different venues, including a movie. There is some thought that a movie might lead into a series revival somewhere. Personally, I'll be happy with a movie, though a series revival would still be great.
 
According to Digital Spy, Lennie James has signed up for ITV's Prisoner remake.

I'd love to see some sort of continuation, but I think the show's pretty much dead at this point.

The Prisoner's only six episodes (and he's not necessarily in the entire run). So by the time anything was going ahead on Jericho, he'd be free and looking for his next project anyway...
 
Is there any word about Sci-Fi showing more reruns of Jericho? I was about half way through the first season when they stopped showing the reruns.

No use to anyone outside Britain, but it starts a twice weekly rerun os Season One on ITV4 this week.
