CBS yesterday announced that the second season of “Jericho” will begin on February 12, 2008.
The series will air Tuesdays at 10 p.m. EST for its seven-episode second season. CBS will lead into the post-apocalyptic series with the show that some see as one of the signs of the upcoming apocalypse, “Big Brother.”
Fans of “Jericho” helped save the show with a campaign to CBS earlier this year. Fans sent in 40,000 pounds of nuts to the network to show support for the show, leading to its return.
The producers were given a seven-episode season to complete the series’ on-going storyline. However, producers have said that while they’ve compacted their plans for a second-season story arc, they don’t see these as the final episodes for the show.
Producers are hopeful the ratings may be enough to convince CBS to give the show a full third season or extend the second season.

Awesome! This is one of my favourites of the recent crop within the past couple years. Gotta love the post-apocalyptic tribalism.

I am really pleased that CBS listened, my fiance and I don’t agree on many shows (at all lol), however Jerico ended up being a favourite for both of us.
