Food for Thought poll

Accusations have been made of indecency fouling the waters of the CBS Jericho Message Board. In the interest of introspection I have authored a poll with a few questions to see just how many of us are truly wrestling with this issue. The poll is HERE. -02/03/08

CBS Jericho Site Gets Major Facelift
.
Jericho season 2 is coming fast and CBS is cleaning house for the party! The controversial Meebo chatroom has been removed and the main Jericho page has been completely reworked. The new Jericho homepage is a less dramatic interface which frankly, is much cleaner and seems to hold a heck of a lot more content. Videos feature prominently with an extensive season 2 preview section. 13 of the 22 first season episodes are linked to in well laid out and inviting thumbnail images. There is a featured fans section which sports the avatar of the fans they spotlight and a link to a thread where the fan can be found. 8 recommended forum threads grace the box below that. And at the very bottom of the page is a Town of Jericho gallery which contains various slideshows of the town, its residents and the first season episodes. (If you are reading this Web Team the button for the residents slideshow presently takes one to the town slideshow)

This is such an encouraging development for Jericho. To think that the network has decided to re-commit and allocate money for their Jericho site only says to me they are expecting a substantial influx of new fans. Early reviews for the first three episodes are extremely positive and the excitement surrounding the show throughout the web is palpable. -01/31/07

JLA Exposé
.
Fan fiction meets fantasy; that’s part of what I found as I turned or rather clicked through the web pages of the Jake Lusters Anonymous thread on the CBS message board. I also found something else which I will expose soon enough. First let’s eavesdrop a bit.

Nita 28 writes:

“Later that evening I joined jake over at Baileys. He had taken a bit of a nap out on the Patio. So he was well recharged when I joined him, Mary closed early but Jake and I, on his lap of course, were still on the Patio. Mary made my special drinks before she left. And that's where we stayed all night.”

Pretty tame so far but then:

“we did indulge in heavy lovemaking. Cause what I had told him seemed to arouse him greatly and he wanted to take good advantage of our time.”

Well, I think we have just about reached the erotic heights of a light romance novel, the kind that any eight year old could buy from a drug store. (I read “Forever” when I was ten) Now, I am not saying that some folks might not find this offensive but what does anyone expect on a thread called Jake Luster’s Anonymous?

Another criticism I have heard of the JLA is their adoption of Chocofishie’s reworking of the Serenity prayer for the clubs, that’s right I said clubs, purposes. In the interest of full disclosure I should first say that I served with Chocofishie back in Camp Passion which in and of itself sounds dirty. That’s part of the fun of language. Double entendre and repurposing old texts to suit your needs is just a fact of American life. From Groucho Marx to Madonna we have been buying and selling sex since the countrie’s inception. Blues Music’s roots run raunchy and for that matter so do Bug’s Bunnies. “Size matters not!” say’s Yoda but try telling that to the kid who cannot get on the Tilt-A-Whirl because of his size. (You thought I was going to say something dirty didn’t you?)

Alcoholics Anonymous repurposed the Serenity Prayer long before the JLA and sexy stars reside in Jericho for a reason. The ogle factor is part of it. I promised earlier I would tell you what else I found on the JLA thread. I found a Sisterhood. Perhaps not a Ya Ya but definitely a Ga Ga Sisterhood. These gals are Ga Ga over Jake and whether some folks like it or not their Jake Lust went a long way toward saving Jericho.
.
Not to mention their intelligence, perseverance and power.
.
Thank you ladies of the JLA. -01/30/08

Every Digg Counts?
.

I started a page on the Junction called Every Digg Counts a couple of weeks ago. I posted about it on the CBS boards. In that thread I made the following plea to all Jericho fans:

“I think the time has come for me to make a plea for unity on the fronts of Digging and Hey Nielsen. Digg and HN are two sites where results completely depend on our strength in numbers. I implore you, let's support one another with our Diggs, Comments and Opinions once again as we take the viewers by the hand and lead them into season two.”

I redoubled my efforts on HN after this. My contributions were not earth shattering but I made sure I got there everyday. I stood side by side with many of you in the fandom and attempted to push our show up in the rankings. I put aside my personal feelings in many cases and added my hands to the work. I did this not to be a hero but in order to not be a hypocrite. Now I have begun to feel that I am aiding and abetting hypocrites. There are those among us who say their main focus is the show but take every opportunity to push their own personal agendas. This one accuses that one of having no objectivity. To this I say “Give me a break!”

The Star Wars on the CBS board, whereby threads which seem to be perfectly civil and engaging to many fans are rated as One Star, are not fueled by objectivity. They are perpetrated by people who think they can invisibly make a statement and this practice undermines the good will on the board. These actions are not objective. We (as a fandom) are appalled by the concept that digg users who are un-friendly to Jericho may be burying our stories and yet we are doing the very same thing to our own.

The ambulance chasing mentality which drives the post counts way up on contentious threads at CBS is more evidence of our lack of objectivity. I am guilty of multiple views myself. Those multiple views are how I know I have difference of opinion to overcome in the first place.

The bottom line here is I no longer ask for anyone to put aside differences to secure a third season of Jericho. I now think the only healthy way forward is for folks to let their conscience guide them. This may mean that there are some differences which cannot be overcome. So be it. I will continue to add links to the Every Digg Counts page until the 12th as I said I would.-01/27/08

Watch Jerichochannel!
.
Sniper101 recently took over the site Jerichochannel.tv from Rabs who found less time to work with it then expected . Rather than let the site sit dormant Rabs offered it up for adoption. Sniper agreed to take it on and together with Jericho friends Kestral, Mister Cosmic and perhaps others have put a lot of work into adding videos, picture albums and embellishing the theme Rabs laid out before them. The result is a vibrant Jericho video site! This is a great place to direct folks who are new to the show so they can further explore the world of Jericho.-01/26/08

Keeping Track
.
Someone claiming to be a member of the Jericho cast or crew posted this on a popular social networking site last night. I am not sure the details need to be brought to light but the message is important so I will re-post it here. I have removed one paragraph, which undoubtedly would have proven to identify the parties involved, because I believe this is something we should read without regard to loyalties. This is the internet folks; it is easy for things to get out of hand. Let us all do our best to not be the type of person a post like this would be directed at. .
Posted by Jericastcrew:
.
“Listen. I cannot lurk anymore on this although I will remain anonymous. Sure I run the risk of anyone believing my relationship to the show or not. Think what you will. I could be anyone. Regardless, I thought it should be known that many of us on the cast and crew of Jericho actually read a lot of this (not only the CBS board but others with links to places like this as well as other blogs).
.
Frankly I feel concerned when I see behavior all over the place like this by someone here. Mind you, I have a busy life and I don't see it all which tells me it's probably worse than what I've seen. I'm not involved nor will I be. I will not respond. I'm just here to say I see your behavior and I do not take it lightly. Many of us are invited to Jerichon and if there are people like this attending and if there is not sufficient security there, I'm afraid I will not be willing to attend and I will encourage one person in particular not to attend because I am concerned for this person's safety.
.
I hope the fans know why we have to be cautious. It's because we see behavior like this. It's a very real concern and it's sad because we want to meet most all of you! I hope this helps make people think before they speak. We see it folks. “ -01/25/08

Ichthus - 8 random things
.

• When I was young my parents didn’t have a lot of money for Christmas one year. My Christmas present was a dollar bag of 100 plastic airplanes. I had a lot of fun with those planes.
.
• My favorite author is Isaac Asimov. Not only do I enjoy his fictional work I also enjoy his non-fictional work. My goal is to own every book he has written. I might need to open my own library.
.
• I have worked at the same job for over 21 years. I have gone through a change in location and a change of ownership. The company first location was the back of a former Ford dealer, the first in town. Our office was once a coal bin, which was dark and gloomy, not to mention cold in the winter. One year while watching A Christmas Carol on TV, I couldn’t help but notice how similar my working conditions were to Bob Cratchit. Bob, I know what you’re going through.
.
• I always had a fascination with airplane especially the big ones. I’m amazed that something so large can get off the ground and fly so graceful.
.
• One evening while visiting my cousins, we were given a puppy from their dog’s litter. My older brother wanted to name it Snoopy but I didn’t think the name was appropriate for a girl dog. Since my brother stayed overnight at my cousins’ house, I decided to give her a more appropriate name, Ginger. My brother didn’t seem to mind.
.
• When I was very young we visited my grandparents in the Blue Ridge Mountains. My brother and I walked up this path to the top of a hill behind my grandparents’ house and found a mobile home with no road leading to it. We were puzzled by how it got there. We later learned a helicopter placed the mobile home there. Some 10 years later, when we went to visit again, the first thing my brother and I did was walk up the hill to see if the mobile home was still there. It was.
.
• I have always wanted a Basset Hound. I just love those floppy ears and sad, mournful eyes. One Saturday morning I was looking at our local paper and saw a picture of a Basset Hound. It was found wondering the street and taken to the street department where the stray dogs are kept. After 10 days nobody had claimed it. The street department was considering keeping it as a mascot. We called the street commissioner who was a friend of the family and he agreed to let us take him. I’ll never forget the day Montgomery became a member of our family.
.
• Having been born and raised during the space program, I have had an interest in space and have become a big fan of space-based science fiction.

* I spend a lot of time watching sports. I enjoy watching athletes giving all they have. I believe if you've given your best, there are no losers. My favorite athlete is Tiger Woods. Not only does he always give his all on the golf course, but he gives so much to make the world a better place.

TEROCIOUS - 8 random things about me.
.
.
*In fourth grade I fell deeply in love with Veronica Szabo. I knew she loved me too because on Valentines Day she gave out little cards to the whole class but I was the only one to receive a purple lollipop with my valentine. I swore I would never eat it. About a week later I got really sick with a fever and delirium. I thought for sure I was going to die so I ate Veronica’s lollipop.

*I was a founding member of KITUS, a theatre company which has morphed into an excellent training facility for young and old actors. They also continue to mount daring and original performances.

*My cousin Denise trained police dogs when I was growing up. Occasionally we would be at her house visiting and two or more of her dogs would get into a spontaneous row. On one such incident I was standing right next to Cruiser, a rottweiler when he decided to go after one of the shepherds. Cruiser locked his teeth on the other and the shepherd was screaming in pain. Denise, who was on the other side of the room, pointed at the wood pile next to me and shouted “hit him”! I must have looked at her like a deer that was caught in the high beams because she slowly but still with great force enunciated “PICK UP A LOG AND HIT HIM.” I did so, only letting the split quarter of a log fall with the force of its own weight on Cruisers head. He let go of the Shepherd and shook out his head exactly like in the Bugs Bunny cartoons. Suddenly everything was back to normal. It was as if there had been no fight at all.

*I have had many dreams where everything is lit as though in full daylight but the sky is pitch black.

*When I was around twelve, and my mother and I were returning home from my aunts on the star lit back roads of rural Delaware, we saw a fireball come down from the sky and land in a field behind a stand of trees.

*I have been searching for years for just the right tool belt. A well laid out belt speeds the work and makes any project more pleasurable and productive. The one I have now is large but when worn with leather suspenders it is a well balanced and comfortable rig.

*I was lucky enough to own an Atari 800 around the time when they were first released. I was 14 years old at the time. My mother was single and I am sure she had to give up a lot to buy it for me. Thank you again Mom, I learned a lot on that machine.

*I live in a renovated 1 room schoolhouse that was built by John H. Hudson in 1883.

Jericho: New Rangers
.
There has been an amazing influx of new posters to the CBS Jericho Boards in the last several days. Here is what some of them are saying:

Parislibra – “I would like to remind everyone that Jericho is now airing numerous times weekly on Universal HD. Even though I own the DVD, prior to which I watched every episode numerous times on Innertube, I still love watching the Jericho repeats on Universal HD. In fact, Universal is doing a great job showing the episode of the week 3 times on Friday and repeating 3 times on the following Monday.”

Jtdwg – “It's not all that often that a television network actually listens to the viewers and brings back a show that had been cancelled. This show is such a great show with a great cast and writters, I'm glad you had the guts to bring this show back, even though the ratings were not what you were expecting for season 1. Keep it going please. I will be watching and I've told all my friends to tune in as well!!”

Type34guy – “I’m hearing the second season is shaping up to be a great one -- I was scrolling for Jericho stories and ran across this one in Television Week…check out this quote from a cbs exec about the new season...“With the short season order, these episodes are flying,” he said. “It’s like boom-boom-boom; the show moves like a freight train.” I can’t wait for Feb. 12.”

Anvil84 – “To All Jericho fans I am new and am glad to be a part of this. I do feel weird that Im just jumping in I would like to let you know that I did not watch the show while it was on tv. I was busy fighting for another show at the time. The other day I saw the pilot episode and was impressed I watched the next following 3 episodes online. Then I bought the show the next day and was wowed. I have just finished the first season and am extremley grateful for the fight that you all put up to get this show back. I know how it feels when a show is ripped from you before it feels complete. You all made history and I just wanted to thank you and let you know that I am a big fan of this show and will join you in making sure everyone I know will give this show a chance. My mom was the one who told me about it and I have asked my sister to buy if for herself for MY birthday and watch them before the 12th of feb.”

Copywriteink – “I come by now and again; I just don't say much.

Ooooo, that makes me a lurker. ;)”

Well lurker or no Thank you all for joining us and for bringing your messages of hope and support. Your energies will go a long way to helping Jericho secure a third season.

Jericho: Torrent-ial Reigns


For some the temptation may almost be too much; posts began appearing this morning around the Jericho fandom that the first 3 episodes of season 2 were available for immediate download on rapid file sharing sites which use Bit Torrent technology.

From the Bit Torrent website:

“BitTorrent DNA is a content delivery service that uses a secure, private, managed peer network to power faster, more reliable, more efficient delivery of richer content. BitTorrent DNA works with your existing CDN or origin servers, seamlessly accelerating your downloads or HTTP media streams.

With over 150 million clients downloaded, BitTorrent is the consumer standard for software and content distribution on the Internet. BitTorrent DNA extends the open BitTorrent protocol into a managed platform for commercial-grade content delivery.”

There are many reasons to wait for these 3 episodes but I don’t believe given the above description that poor quality would be one of them. Frankly, I think the conception that pirated material online will generally be of poor quality is a thing of the past. Rather I think the opposite is true nowadays.

Most real Jericho Fans are going to put out some hard cash to purchase a copy of the Season 2 DVD when it’s released so the notion of pirating the material could be rationalized away by considering these Eps an advance on what they are going to pay for anyway.

I think Solidarity stands as the soul indisputable reason to wait. I think we should wait to watch these episodes together just as we waited for a date together. I think we should savor this last month of waiting and really enjoy one another once again. Having these episodes be made available to us is actually a blessing because we now have the option to come together and be united in a way that has really become difficult for us over the last two months or so. We get to choose our fandom over ourselves and if we want to we get to watch Jericho together on Februray 12th and beyond.

I want to, how about you?

Poster of Loomer by RubberPoultry
.
The Loomer Report
.
As I write, the Jeritopia chat with Mike Loomer is one hour and twenty one minutes old with no signs of slowing. Schumi spoke for everyone, I believe, when she said that we would all like to stay and talk to Loomer forever. What a great guy and yet another shining example of how the people involved with Jericho are worthy of every ounce of energy we have put forth in trying to save this show. The questions just kept coming from the thirty five or so Jericho fans in attendance and ranged from the minutest details of a Set Dressers work to what songs would be on the soundtrack of season 2. Loomer was asked what the most high dollar items were to ever be stolen from the set and he answered:

“Most of the time we lock up the high value items but things do walk, at the end of season 1 someone walked off with 3 flat screen TV's from Bailys tavern. We just had to call the insurance co.”

The Fans expressed an interest in stealing Jakes car and of course Jakes Towel.

It turns out Jakes car is a Road Runner imposter and most of the artwork in the Jericho town hall is from the Whitehouse drama West Wing.

Jericho 247 informed us all at one point that Galactic Gigolo is a real movie and The Blob envisioned an Undress me Emily doll.

Loomer wants to see a Deputies Bill and Jimmy action figure Playset.

Things have still not wrapped up over there but for Cousin T it is time for bed. Schumi said the transcripts of this chat will be posted and tomorrow I will link to it.

I would like to say a huge thank you to Mike Loomer for taking his time to be with us, I understand that he will also be attending Jerichon this year plus a very special thank you to Schumi for a great job moderating the biggest Jeritopia turnout I have ever had the pleasure of witnessing and to Morgan for acting as MC.

Goodnight Jericholand

I have to admit that I was already a little tipsy when I got to Jeritopia at about quarter till twelve on New Years Eve. My intent was to remain fairly quiet and enjoy the company but I got a phone call from an old friend so I had to settle for glancing occasionally at the screen and watching the names and comments of my Jericho cohorts scrolling along. For months now we have watched each other come and go. We drop hints about “real life” as we attend to our daily business of living but we have all been elsewhere and wondered: “What is going on right now? Who is watching the fort? What will I find when I get back?” Sound serious? I think you could say that many of us would never have believed just how serious our fandom could become. Some of us have gotten ourselves into a fair amount of trouble over our loyalties. We have all heard and maybe made the argument that this is just a TV show and we should take care to keep it in context. But I do not believe for one minute that this has all been about a TV show. I think what Jericho represents to each of us is far more complicated and personal than we let on. I think we were in the right place and time to witness and be part of a movement of change that has touched each of us deeply. All along I have enjoyed the deep feeling without ever being able to articulate it and along the way I have come to regard your screen names and avatars as representatives of someone who understands exactly what I cannot say. By the time I got off the phone with my friend last night I was in such a state that I somehow closed Jeritopia without even saying goodbye. It was okay though, because I knew you guys would understand.

Happy New Year Jericho Fans and Many Happy Returns!!!
