The show didn't air until after 1:30am in Columbus because of election coverage and I'm sure this was the case in many other markets around the country as well.

The point I am trying to make is there is significantly more people in the United States watching this show than what the Nielsen system leads us to believe and they aren't able to account all of them. I know that the DVR figures mean jack shit to CBS because they aren't watching the commercials.

For all we know, there could be 5M more people watching Jericho on a Bunny ears antenna TV.

It's pretty much if you don't have this fucking box, your viewership and support of the show means jack shit. It also doesn't help when alot of posters in these forums have such a negative attitude to supporting new programs that they refuse to watch it and say...."I'll wait for the DVD and watch season 2."

How come no mention of other bombs around the world? I thought China was hit as well? There was a reference made about 700 million screaming china men and Jake asked I thought it was a billion and the reply was not anymore.

1) How do you know?
2) Wouldn't this apply to any show? You could make the argument you're making about any show.

If I remember right, that line of bull came from the fake army folks who came in on the tank. They were full of shit, and you shouldn't believe anything they said.

I do wish they'd give us a little more on the aid drop from China, though.

If the new government is looking for the bomb to wipe out any evidence that is was an inside job. How do they explain the bomb that did not go off in NYC? The police stopped them from setting it off according to one episode.

That's a very good point. Perhaps those behind this were able to suppress that one somehow.

Wasn't that from Red Dawn?

Great episode. Interesting that CBS is touting these upcoming episodes as the last of the season, not the series. I have high doubts that it would return, but hey, weirder things have happened.

I'm sure China dropped supplies because the Cheyenne government nuked Iran and North Korea, and they didn't want the same thing to happen to them. That's why the drop had a message saying that China is your friend.

It was sad to see Bonnie die in a hail of gun fire. But, props to her for taking out several Ravenwood guys.

I'm looking forward to a Stanley and Goetz standoff. That should be really good.

The Hawkins storyline is really intriguing. Very curious who the mystery man is.

That is the one part of this episode that really had me almost laughing.

Here we have a teenage girl standing in one place with a shot gun taking out 5-6 supposedly highly trained Ravenwood soldiers like they were the villians in some low-budget 50's cowboy movie.

However, I guess I'm the only one who thought that was pretty silly.

Mystery man is clearly Beck, IMO.

No, not the only one. Read my post #23.

I agree that the shootout with Bonnie was laughably bad. It reminded me of Walker, Texas Ranger.
