Netflix Looking to Resurrect Jericho?

2 May 2012 11:10 AM, PDT | FilmJunk | See recent FilmJunk news »

Last month Netflix announced that they had posted a loss for the first quarter of 2012, but that they had gained 1.7 million subscribers in the U.S. With numbers nearly back to where they were in the middle of last year, it appears that they may have finally recovered from their price increase and the whole Qwikster fiasco. However, with a lot of major content deals continuing to expire, it's becoming clear that the future Netflix probably lies in original programming. The relaunch of Arrested Development next year is going to be a huge boost for them, and now it looks like they're hoping to bring back another short-lived fan favourite: the CBS sci-fi drama Jericho. For those unfamiliar with the show, Jericho centered on the inhabitants of a fictional town in Kansas who struggle to maintain order after 23 major cities in the United States suffer nuclear attacks of unknown origin. »

In Our Sights: Will Netflix Breathe New Life into Jericho?

2 May 2012 5:00 AM, PDT | ScifiMafia | See recent ScifiMafia news »

Jericho fans, have you revived from fainting after seeing that headline? Well, take a lot of deep breaths, slowly, because “slowly” is how it will happen, if there’s even a chance. Keep Terra Nova fans in mind when you feel like hyperventilating; they, too, were told there was a possibility that their beloved show might be revived by by Netflix, and Netflix eventually had to dash their hopes.

TV Guide broke the news about Jericho, confirming that Netflix has approached CBS about reviving the cult favorite, and the network, through its CBS TV Studios production arm, is considering it. The drama, which followed the residents of a small Kansas town in the wake of a nuclear attack, starred Skeet Ulrich, Lennie James, and Ashley Scott, and last aired a new episode in 2008.

Don’t let the length of time that’s elapsed since the last season aired be too discouraging; Netflix has, »

'Jericho' reborn? Netflix reportedly talking about a revival

1 May 2012 12:58 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »

Get your peanuts ready: There are rumblings that the cult drama "Jericho" could be the subject of an "Arrested Development"-style resurrection, once again courtesy of Netflix.

Netflix and CBS Studios, which produced the series, have had (very) preliminary talks about a reboot, TV Guide reports. Some fairly significant financial discussions still have to happen, and the cast -- which included Skeet Ulrich, Lennie James and Ashley Scott -- and creative team would have to be reassembled as well. The show has also been down this road before: Comcast flirted with the idea of a third season a couple years ago, and a feature film project never went anywhere.

If a deal does come together, it will give Netflix another passionate fan base to tap. "Jericho" was canceled after its first season in 2006-07, when it averaged about 9.2 million viewers (marginal for CBS at the time), but a fan campaign »
