Re: Jericho Season 2 thread
Strong review of the Season 2 DVD set up over at IGN, but what really caught my eye was this tantalizing tidbit:
Quote:
| I ran into Kenneth Mitchell (Jericho's "Eric Green") yesterday, and after talking to him for a minute and telling him what a great show he had, I asked if there was any hope of another network picking them up. He told me maybe, but then hinted at a feature film for the true finale to the story. He was as nice in person as he was on the show, and really enjoyed the family he made on Jericho. |
It's pretty much understood that there's going to be
some type of final closure on the
Jericho story coming down the road, whether on screen, or offscreen in some other fashion (graphic novels, etc.), but the prospect of a feature film is exciting.
If nothing else, they'll have the money this time to totally sell the goods, and take us to all the places that we never got to see in the TV series (
i.e., New York), as well as staging some truly epic battles that wouldn't be possible on a television budget.
If Joss Whedon's shows and
Arrested Development can get a second chance on the big screen, so can
Jericho. And even if this doesn't pan out, CBS might almost certainly be open to some TV movies or a mini-series to end the story once and for all.
