Quiet tip of the
hat to CBS's 'Jericho'
Disappointing end for fan-revived disaster drama

It was a subdued farewell for “Jericho” last night. Ten months after CBS revived the post-apocalypse drama following a campaign by rabid fans, the show drew its second-lowest rating of the season for its series finale.
CBS canceled the show last week because of disappointing ratings for season two.
“Jericho” averaged a 1.9 adults 18-49 rating, according to Nielsen overnights, off 5 percent from the previous week’s 2.0 and down 27 percent from a 2.6 for the second-season premiere last month.
“Jericho” nearly matched a season-low 1.8 rating, set earlier this month, but at least fans got a little closure this time when the show left the air.
