Product Description
This decisive box set brings together Seasons 1 and 2 into one collection. Jericho is a drama about what happens when a nuclear mushroom cloud suddenly appears on the horizon, plunging the residents of a small, peaceful Kansas town into chaos, leaving them completely isolated and wondering if they're the only Americans left alive. But in this time of crisis, as sensible people become paranoid, personal agendas take over and well-kept secrets threaten to be revealed, some people will find an inner strength they never knew they had and the most unlikely heroes will emerge.

I bought this complete boxset after reading reviews on season 1 and 2, and its one of the best things I have seen in a long time. I have just watched both seasons in less than a week as couldnt turn off the TV.
The plot is gripping and you are constantly waiting for the truth to come out about who is behind these attacks on America. In my opinion, this story was completely believable, well written, and the acting was fantastic and the makeup and effects were brilliant. It showed a good reflection on what may/could happen after an event like this. The only downside was that it was cancelled after season 2 (which is only 7 episodes). But the writers have made sure they closed the series and answered pretty much all the questions, and tied up all loose ends. BUY IT NOW!!!!! BARGAIN!!!

I had never heard of this show until I browsing a "Top 100" list of shows, looking for something I had never watched before. This show was high on the list, so I looked at some reviews and thought it would be worth a look. Best decision ever. A series this long would usually last me a couple of months, but I watched it all in less than 2 weeks. I was addicted.
The show is amazing, it keeps the pace up for the first half of the first season, then slows down a bit as the aftermath of the initial "attack" (trying not to spoiler too much) starts to take effect. The second season is short, but a heck of a lot happens. I was scared that because it was cancelled, the shows end would be lame and open, but despite this it has quite a good ending. The premise of the show and the focus is one that it can't have a "everything is back to normal" ending, so the end that it is given does definitely give a sense of resolution.

I recently bought this title, initially having many reservations because of the limited exposure this cast and this production had on a European audience.
I was amazed. The first 3-4 episodes were among the best episodes I have ever seen in my life. The way the people of Jericho deal with events... The way the plot gradually deploys and leaves scattered evidence from time to time... The way almost every character has a hidden past or a dark secret.. Are they connected to the events? Do they know more than they say they do?
How do you think your neighbours would react in case a nuclear bomb exploded in the next city?
I really found many real life connections with the characters.
Last but not least, DO NOT even consider buying the 1st season alone.
The last episode of Season1 doesn't end... It continues to Season 2..

Post Apocalyptic Soap Opera
Completely unbelievable, over simplified rubbish. Post apocalyptic America where everybody still has great hair and teeth despite months of deprivation and no power. Read more

Wish there was another series of it
Brilliant. Only negative is there was only two series, although it is neatly wrapped up at the end. A really good watch.
