The response of fans to Jericho's cancellation has been impressive, and has included sending 50,000 pounds of protest peanuts to the office of CBS. Because of this CBS announced that they will renew the canceled post-apocalyptic television show for seven additional episodes, and begin a drive to increase the viewing audience. They also count on the fans to help them in this area. Obviously this wouldn't have happened if not for the passionate response of the Jericho fanbase. The first season will also be released on DVD this coming September 25th.
A smaller, older note of interest, not only is Fallout well thought of, but Tim Cain is mentioned by name in a Ask the Producers feature.
I'm a huge fan of the post-apocalyptic movies and books, all thanks to a PC game series entitled "Fallout" (and I'm sure there are a lot of fans of these games watching "Jericho"). Has any of you played the game? If so, can we count on some (even subtle) references to these games?
Producer's Response: We love "Fallout." Tim Cain is a genius. Look for our answer to The Hub in episode 13, entitled "Black Jack." You can watch a short preview for that episode on Innertube right now. Also, the rabbit is reduced to a thin red paste.
