I will miss Jericho. I do hope it finds another life on cable TV; I don’t care if it’s TNT or the Sci-Fi Channel. We got a decent closer, but there is so much potential for future seasons!
What did I like best about the CBS series finale we saw? It’s hard to tell.
I loved how Beck unsealed the evidence container and checked out Hawkins’ laptop. He finally realized that Heather was really right all along. I got chills when the officers who had come to arrest Beck tore off their flag insignias and looked to him for orders.
But the whole sequence with the Independent Republic of Texas was just awesome. The Embassy was great. DON’T MESS WITH TEXAS! And the fighter pilot. “I think I just started a war with Cheyenne.” Well, Cheyenne was about to declare war on Texas by shooting down one of their diplomatic flights. So war would’ve come wither way.
I knew that Hawkins couldn’t die, cause they would have no hope of shopping the series around to cable networks if they killed off one of their most popular and intriguing characters. Meta-thinking doesn’t ruin the fun for me. I still didn’t know how it would turn out, except that he would live. I knew that Jake would have to come and save him before Smith killed him. I’m just glad I was wrong about Smith giving Hawkins some sort of James Bond villain-esque speech first.
There are so many possibilities for a third season. The new insurgency – centered in Jericho – with Beck and his soldiers at the forefront. Texas uniting with the East Coast against Cheyenne. So much potential!
Time to look for another petition to sign!
