‘Jericho’ Fans Go Nuts; Show May Return After All

Published on June 06, 2007 | Email this article

The move comes following the outpouring of devotion and disappointment from thousands of fans, many of whom sent nuts to headquarters (a reference to an episode during which a character said, “Nuts,” writes Entertainment Tonight).

The return of the show would give CBS a chance to answer questions that the post-Apocalypse show raised during its first season.
