Do you think that's a bad thing?

There is considerable plot vacuum already. I'm not sure it can take much more.
(I'm not sure I can either.)

hmm, it was pointed out on another forum, and after rewatching and pausing I concur. Most of the shotguns we saw, at least the ones with the black stocks and handguards, were almost definitely NFA items
so we have residents with class 3 firearms but no machineguns or at least a few more semi auto rifles than the one A1 style AR15, and M1 Garand and M1 Carbine?

The show must suck so hard that OnDemand refuses to put any of the new episodes on their schedule. Looks like I will have to watch on Wednesday nights if I want to see the show again.

Meh.

Can't you see it on CBS.com (via innertube)?

I don't have speakers on my system at the moment

I suppose it would be better without sound.

Not quite. The 1983 movie "The Day After" had a woman freaking out that she missed her wedding because of the nuclear apocalypse, grabbing her dress and running from the shelter into the radioactive fallout, only be chased down and saved by Steve Guttenberg. And it was based in Kansas no less.

Unlike The Day After, anyone caught in the fallout in Jericho isn't going to get Radiation poisoning because apparently fallout isn't dangerous anymore.

I bet the air drop of food from what appears to be from China next week is nothing more than them trying to help with giving aid. Lets see how smart the folks from Jericho are.

Well, hopefully they airdrop some booze so they can replenish the bar.

Good point.....maybe candles also. The town never seems to be short on them. Any shots at night have the rooms filled with them.

It's the reverse three-second rule. If it's been more than three seconds since the nuclear fallout got on the food, then it's okay to eat.

A month later and still no word on what really happened. And next week will probably be just another tease.

this show is a fraction of what it could have been but it still just about watchable.

Hell every episode is more like an episode of the A-Team or Macgyver !

After Hawkins had killed their sniper, i don't think there was any way they would just leave without a firefight

Im hoping beyond all hope that James Remar can pull up the quality of the show.

When the DB Sweeny character started trying to swing the government bat around at the bridge face-off, I was hoping one of the Jerichoians would have said "Are you f-in kidding me? Get you and your posse out of Jericho, if you haven't noticed, the government you think you represent doesn't exist anymore. Go on, get the F out you bunch of murderous scavengers!"
