Jericho's producers have enough spine-tingling twists and solid character development on the horizon to help Jericho blow up into something big.
September 28, 2018
Jericho turns nuclear catastrophe into an excuse for a series of suspenseful 24-like set pieces, and the result is a ham-fisted concoction overcrowded with incident and rigged thrills.

It's so deliciously ominous that you really have to savor its charms before it disappears.

The sprawling cast is all-Americana; the sprawling themes come as a direct slap in the face to the terrifying road America off the tube is heading down.
September 28, 2018
This is ultimately a mayhem-and-survival hour about disaster readiness, a potentially more hard-hitting and immediate show for our times than more rock-'em-sock-'em hunting-terrorist shows the networks have tried on us.

TV doesn't get much more high-concept than Jericho... TV doesn't get much easier to criticize than Jericho, either. It's not only about a bomb. It is one.
September 28, 2018
Right now, Jericho is just intriguing enough to give a chance. But with a stronger focus and more postapocalyptic realism, it could be the bomb.
September 28, 2018
While the potential is there, the dramatic moments are softened in Jericho and tension rarely builds for long.
September 28, 2018
What makes a show like Jericho work is that it nimbly works in action, mystery and melodrama with an interesting study of the basic elements of human society. That's a lot to offer, plus Skeet punches a lot of people.
September 28, 2018
This is fertile ground, though thus far the producers approach their characters with a sympathetic eye while throwing in a pinch of Prison Break to create a sense of jeopardy -- which feels like a bit of a cheat.
September 28, 2018
A drama in the more traditional sense, and while there are sci-fi elements in the show this certainly is not the focus, and usually the furthest thing from the viewer's mind. And you know what... it's all the better for it.

If the Awful Truth of the Global Meltdown is the big carrot Jericho dangles before you, it is no more compelling than the question of which of the available good-looking girls Ulrich is going to get close to.
