Jericho (2006 TV series)

''Jericho'' is an American post-apocalyptic action drama television series, which centers on the residents of the fictional city of Jericho, Kansas, in the aftermath of a nuclear attack on 23 major cities in the contiguous United States. It was produced by CBS Paramount Network Television and Junction Entertainment, with executive producers Jon Turteltaub, Stephen Chbosky, and Carol Barbee. It was shown in more than 30 countries.

''Jericho'' ran from September 20, 2006, to March 25, 2008, on CBS. It was cancelled after its first full season because of low ratings. A fan campaign persuaded the network to bring the show back for another season, of seven episodes, after which it was cancelled again. In November 2008, ''TV Guide'' reported that The CW would air repeats of ''Jericho'' to replace the canceled series ''Valentine''. In 2007, ''Jericho'' was ranked number 11 on ''TV Guide''s Top Cult Shows Ever. In 2009, plans were announced for a feature film based on the series, that was later cancelled, and a continuation of the ''Jericho'' storylines in a comic book series. IDW Publishing released a new comic book series for Season 3 (in 2009) and Season 4 in August 2012. Provided by Wikipedia
