Is no one watching Jericho?

Tonights wasn't bad, filled in some holes. I find myself wanting to watch it if only to get more details. I think it's well done with a good cast. Am I alone in thinking this.

I still watch it. It's not good enough to post about and not bad enough to post about anymore so I think it sort of fell through the cracks here.

It is certainly not the best show on television, but the subject matter is so compelling it is still very interesting. I hope it gets a second year.

I'm still watching. It's just OK.
Hawkins is the only thing going really.
Although, I enjoyed the IRS girl's conversations with the chicken tonight.

I try watching it, but it cant grab me like the 1st few episodes did. I tired watching it tonight and fell asleep, but from what i saw it wasn't half bad tonight.

I'm still watching, but I think it's more out of habit than enjoyment (which is easy with the DVR grabbing it). It's improved a bit since the break, especially the Hallmark Channel music they used to have.

I liked how they pulled back and showed more of what happened leading up to the bombs, showing the whole story of Hawkins instead of the swerves they showed in the first episode back from the break.

I still watch it. It's okay. This episode was actually pretty interesting as we learned a few things. I definitely agree with a lot of the posters that Hawkins is the most interesting person on the show.

I gave up on it around the sixth episode but got caught up on the show with my cable ON Demand feature a little while back. It has gone from very mediocre to watchable and then to somewhat good. It has improved to nothing special but enjoyable to watch for me.

Each episode is JUST decent enough to keep me from abandoning the show, but not special enough to cause any real disappointment if it went away.

Problem for me was the long fucking break... I was watching it, enjoyed it enough, then it when on its hiatus, and have the episodes sitting on my DVR, and just havent been compelled to watch them yet. In fact I think one might have been deleted already.

I like it. They seem to move the story along at a decent pace, giving just enough info to keep me interested

I still watch, but usually wait to have three or four episodes on my DVR, before I do so.

I heard it started out ok and then got bad. Besides, it's on CBS and I hate almost everything on that network.

I gave up about 5 episodes ago - too boring. But my wife is still watching.

I think ratings took a nose dive after that. It was doing good before.

So who was responsible for the bomb blowing up?

i watch it....but i'm not entirely sure why. somehow, they managed to make a story about multiple nuclear detonations on u.s. soil and the struggle to keep society from completely breaking down boring as hell 82% of the time.

then the last 38 seconds of the show they pop something in there to keep me just interested enough to watch the next one. i say the writers of this show should thank the creator of tivo....because i doubt anyone rushes right home to catch this when it airs.

I watch it for the most part. Not enough there to really discuss, although last night's episode was pretty interesting.

Good to see Daniel Benzali join the cast - one of my favorite TV actors.

It suckered me back in ... but is starting to get sluggish again. I managed to do my taxes and still not miss anything last night.

I stopped watching about 3 weeks ago...not enough to hold my interest, particularly since I couldn't treat it as a lead in to Lost anymore...
