Obligatory Jericho Update
Nuts Online has now received orders for almost 19 tons of nuts to be sent to CBS. They’re now donating part of the proceeds to Greensburg, Kansas, the town that was destroyed by a tornado recently. While I’m sure that this “save Jericho by sending nuts to CBS” campaign has been a windfall to Nuts Online, it’s great to see them helping out others as well.
I haven’t seen any hint of a response from CBS yet. There may never be one.
While CBS hasn’t blinked, Dark Horizons reports that Jericho’s executive producer has said that other networks are interested in the series and that CBS may allow it to move.
I’ve exhausted the well of interesting or amusing Jericho or peanut images for the moment, so there will be no picture with today’s article.

Here’s some interesting news. Did you hear about Gil Schwartz making a fool of himself at last week’s affiliate meeting? And, CBS has the nerve to say they care about their viewers?

For the hurting fans of the canceled “Jericho,” Mr. Schwartz had this ditty (to the tune of “I’m Sorry”):
“We’re sorry, oh oh … that we canceled … Jericho!/You’ve sent us millions of nuts, it’s really a pain in our butts/But it would have been better if you got together/Before the big upfronts in May/When development season gave reason to send you away/ And made you as righteously pissed off as you are today.”
