Jericho fans deliver a fitting finale to the May sweeps
Television viewers are more than willing to invest money in quality programming.
If a show is as successful at inspiring loyalty as Jericho has been over the last couple of years, it doesn’t even matter that it has been cancelled. Not in this particular case anyway, since Jericho producers Carol Barbee and Jon Steinberg have voiced confidence that the show will most likely return in some form or another.
The efforts of Jericho fans to bring the show back for a third season on a cable network are often labelled as “rabid” or “nutty,” but the last among the many campaigns is very much on the pulse of television audiences at large, as the numbers for this year’s May sweeps indicate. More about those later.
