After a series of nuclear attacks The United States is thrown into chaos and confusion leading to the destruction of the government and a population that has to fend for themselves. Just before the attacks took place Jake Green (Skeet Ulrich) returned to his small home town in Kansas. After seeing the terrifying mushroom clouds rise in the distance, the town becomes cut off and completely isolated. Jake must now help his family and the rest of the community pick up the pieces whilst protecting their land and resources from neighbouring towns and rogue military units who have now become the biggest threat to their survival.

 

Jericho was a highly underrated CBS show that was initially cancelled after the first season due to low viewing figures, however it later returned for a second and final season after a large number of dedicated fans waged an unprecedented and successful campaign for its return.

 

Editors Rating: 9/10
