Jericho

I’m now 90% certain that next week’s episode will be the series finale for Jericho. I’m sorry about that, but at least we got this seven-episode stretch to wrap up the storylines. Some shows never get that opportunity, leaving fans to make up their own endings to the story.

Last season, Jericho moved at a slow (but steady) pace, letting viewers really get a feel for the situation that the town’s citizens found themselves in before changing the status quo. This season, though, the creators don’t have that luxury, and it’s putting an unfortunate strain on the show’s quality. Don’t get me wrong; I liked Sedition just fine, but the show is starting to feel more like a quick summary of events where we only get to see the most pivotal scenes than an actual television series.

Spoilers follow.
