JERICHO is a drama about what happens when
a nuclear mushroom cloud suddenly appears on the horizon, plunging the
residents of a small, peaceful Kansas town into chaos, leaving them completely
isolated and wondering if they're the only Americans left alive. Fear of the
unknown propels
Though the cloud appears in the distance, it
affects all the residents in Jericho,
including Dale Turner (Erik Knudsen),
the 16-year-old trailer park kid everybody picks on, who finds himself in a
position that could change his status; Robert Hawkins (Lennie James), a mysterious stranger who seems to be a
jack-of-all-trades as he steps in to help restore order; Heather Lisinski (Sprague Grayden), a pretty young
schoolteacher on the bus with her students returning from a class trip when the
glare from the explosion causes a terrible accident; Emily Sullivan (Ashley Scott), Jake's high school
sweetheart who lives outside of town and innocently goes about her business
unaware of the catastrophe, Bonnie Richmond (Shoshannah Stern), a pretty 17-year-old who is hearing impaired;
and Bonnie's older brother Stanley (Brad
Beyer), Jake's best friend from childhood and an avid car lover who works
on the family farm. In this time of crisis, as sensible people become paranoid,
personal agendas take over and well-kept secrets threaten to be revealed, some
people will find an inner strength they never knew they had, and the most
unlikely heroes will emerge.

Israel’s ancient cities like Jericho and Safed are multi-leveled. Excavations reveal layer upon layer of previous incarnations, largely because of tectonic destruction. We don’t think of today’s Haifa as being as earthquake-prone as, say, Los Angeles, for example. But geologists are quick to point out that we’re sitting on the Syrian-African fault line, a major [...]

I will say their TV spot highlights how their first attempt was ultimately unsuccessful, which is an odd way of raising awareness for their second turn at bat, but maybe network execs should just take the hint already and give the show some real...
