It’s been a very busy week at the annual Television Critics Assn. Press Tour. We’ve heard from those in the know about what to expect from several SF vehicles, from “Battlestar Galactica” to “Heroes” and now “Jericho” star Skeet Ulrich, who plays Jake Green on the series, spills some of the beans on what fans can expect from the rest of Season One when the show returns on February 14th.
“I think the deeper stuff that we’ve sort of developed over the past three months has yet to be seen,” Ulrich said yesterday in an interview with SCI FI Wire at the press tour. “It’s sort of why these things happen. There’s an interim between me leaving Jericho and the past five years. That is the evolution of this story.”
Ulrich added that the audience will finally find out what his character has been doing since he left Jericho. “It becomes clear where he’d been, certainly for a portion of that five years,” he said. “But not unlike Hawkins’ backstory, it’s sort of one layer of what’s been going on. I mean, you learn in episode 14 quite a bit more than you do in 12. But the thing I love about the character is you never know what’s true and what’s not.”
The CBS hit show starring a headliner ensemble cast lead by Ulrich, Gerald McRaney, Pamela Reed and Ashley Scott airs on Wednesdays at 8PM/ET and returns in February with all new episodes.
