Jericho---"Condor"---2/19/08

Photobucket

Synopsis for Condor:

Spoiler:


The Cheyenne-based government sends their president to Jericho as suspicions continue to grow about their true intent. Hawkins then uncovers incriminating evidence against them, and Jake joins the cause.

I went to the Los Angeles Comic Book and Sci-Fi Convention on Sunday and saw a screening of this episode. I thought it was really good. Most of the cast and crew of Jericho attended the screening and I got a chance to talk with most of them and got their autographs. They were all really nice people.

Sprague Grayden aka Heather. Sprague was really cool. I enjoyed meeting her. Kenny Mitchell aka Eric is signing my DVD. He was really quiet of the entire cast.

That's cool. I've liked her since Six Feet Under, and she's probably the only female character I really like on Jericho.

They already have sci-fi conventions for Jericho? It's not even sci-fi.

I know it's not Sci-Fi, Duh! However, the show is re-airing season 1 on Sci-Fi.

It was primarily a comic convention and networks promote show's at these things all the time. I had a good time there and the cast and crew were very pleasant. Plus, Jericho was heavily promoted at the Comic Con convention in San Diego last summer. Don't why you find this so humorous.

Jericho isn't sci-fi or comic bookish (notwithstanding its presense on Sci-Fi Channel, which is also funny). That's what's funny - to me - well that and that in just one season, it's reached 'convention' status.

I'm not saying you can't have a good time there or that the cast and crew can't be pleasant. I wasn't laughing at that.

I thought they had completely forgotten about the Ravenwood storyline, it was good to see it back
And lol @ them already having a school book rewriting the history of the US.
Too bad that Indian doctor didn't come back.

I enjoyed this episode and the direction they are taking with the new (likely fascist) government. I'm assuming this new President of the A.S.A. is essentially a puppet of the one or few (Ravenwood?) really in charge.

Good to see that Jimmy is just as goofy looking in real life. I just assumed his facial expressions were part of his character

What was the reason for the funeral-like ceremony with the 3-corner folded flag and the military gunfire salute? I felt like I missed something when the president's speech suddenly transforms into a military funeral.

Does Lennie James speak as weirdly as Hawkins does?

I'm assuming it was for Major Dad.

Yeah it's DB Sweeney. He was the Ravenwood leader last season too.

Lennie speaks with a very thick English accent. His natural speaking voice sounds nothing like Hawkins.

They presented the folded flag to the mayor. Protocol is to present the flag to the nearest surviving relative. Is the mayor related to Major Dad? Even if they were brothers (which I don't remember being the case), a son would outrank a brother.

Oh yeah - I guess they did give it to the Mayor. Maybe it was just for the town's losses then.

That was exactly what it was for. The "President" eluded to that during his speech.

I thought he might be from New Orleans - I tried pinning down that accent before instead of looking him up in IMDB and was totally stumped. I never thought he might be English - then again everyone on American TV seems to be British these days.
