never seen it. What do you like about it?

[crazycalamari]

It is a show based upon life after an atomic war, and most of the major cities are offline, meaning they are isolated and have to rebuild their own city and region with no active fed govt (until the final episode of the season).

The development of the characters is excellent, even though there are about 20 main characters you end up understanding their back-stories, their lives, and caring about (or hating) them.

I personally don't buy many shows on dvd, but am considering purchasing it to watch it from the start (since I missed the first few episodes).

I've never watched it either - interesting description.

There's more at Wikipedia. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jericho_%28TV_series%29]

The storyline revolves around the residents of Jericho, a small, rural Kansas town, in the aftermath of nuclear attacks on twenty-three major cities in the contiguous United States. The series begins with a visible nuclear detonation of unknown origin over nearby Denver, Colorado, and a loss of power and modern communications, effectively isolating Jericho. Later, power is restored to Jericho by what is alluded to as the efforts of the U.S. government, but soon after, an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) disables all electronics. Several themes regularly addressed in the show are gathering of information, community identity, public order, limited resources, the value of family, and internal and external threats. The show also features several mysteries involving the backgrounds of major characters, the perpetrators of the attack, and the extent of damage to the United States and its government.
The pivotal character in this story is Jake Green, the 32-year-old son of Mayor Johnston Green, who briefly returns home to visit his family and friends before becoming stranded as a result of the catastrophe. After a somewhat awkward return home and a tense reunion with his father, Jake steps up to become a leader in Jericho, fighting to protect the town and its citizens. As the people of Jericho struggle to survive in a changed world, they remain unaware that one of the newest residents, Robert Hawkins, knows much more about the attacks than he lets on.
