Those Fuck-tards!!! I sooooo wish I knew how to make bombs! (not really so please don't put a link to how to make bombs *cough* will)

[Maximal]

Those little fucking twats, well I guess since the only other show I watch on CBS is CSI that I'll just have to find something else to watch, cause I ain't watching CBS anymore

[smilin heinz]

I can honestly say I don't watch CBS alot and I will definately find another channel to watch if necessary.

[EDIT]

It's now just a matter of signing the actors to new deals and, according to one insider, finding a new soundstage to house the show's sets.

E! Online echoes this information!

IT IS CRITICAL TO REMEMBER THAT THIS INFORMATION HAS YET TO BE OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED, although...considering the source....I'd say things are looking shiny.

A strong recommendation for fans of the series: do not pause, hesitate, or waiver in your efforts to save JERICHO. If negotiations are actually / still under way, there's likely still room for matters to spin apart.

'Jericho' fans make CBS rescind cancellation

Happy news for all fans (myself included) of "Jericho," CBS has rescinded their decision to cancel the show, after "nutty" protests over the drama's cancellation had top brass peppered with peanuts sent in the mail.

It will return next season, the network said Wednesday.

CBS said the show deserved another chance, also mentioning the show needed wider appeal.

"Wow! Over the past few weeks you have put forth an impressive and probably unprecedented display of passion in support of a prime time television series," CBS Entertainment President Nina Tassler said in a posted letter to "Jericho" fans.

The letter was released to The Associated Press.

"You got our attention; your emails and collective voice have been heard," Tassler wrote, and seven episodes have been ordered for midseason 2007-08. "In success, there is the potential for more. But, for there to be more `Jericho,' we will need more viewers."

Fans must do their part to rally interest while the network does its job, she said.

CBS is planning a campaign to reintroduce "Jericho," including rerunning the show on CBS this summer, streaming episodes and clips online and releasing the first season on DVD on Sept. 25. The show's return date and scheduling has yet to be determined.

CBS had to complete new deals with cast members, including star Skeet Ulrich, before announcing its decision.

Since "Jericho" was canceled last month the network has been deluged with calls, messages and shipments of peanuts.

"We are tired of the networks (not just CBS) tossing aside quality programming," was the message carried by jericholives.com, one of several web sites protesting the cancellation. "Enough! We're going to fight for this one."

CBS notes that "fan enthusiasm included the delivery of 50,000 pounds of peanuts to its New York offices."

In the season finale, a character replies "Nuts!" - the very same response that a U.S. general in World War II made to a German demand for surrender at the Battle of the Bulge as a response to a demand that the town of Jericho surrender.

WE WIN!!!!!

[smilin heinz]

It renews my faith in the Networks a little. I'm glad they saw the response and actually gave a damn.

[Maximal]

They only gave in because of the almost 60,000 pound of nuts they have recieved
