Hey, all. Sorry for the lack up updates this week, as I’ve been taking the week off. Expect regular updates starting Monday!

On to the news! The TCA press tour has been going on this week (again, expect a recap next week), and ‘Jericho’s producers let out some big points about what to expect when our favorite post-apocalyptic show returns later this year (via AICN).

The Cheyenne government’s army breaks up the fighting between Jericho and New Bern, but we can still look forward to some postwar scores being settled secretly.

Cheyenne will work to bring water and power back to Jericho.

Titus Welliver, who played Col. Robert Hoffman in the first season finale, was unavailable to reprise the role for the new season.

Most of 2.1 takes place a good while after all the battle with new Bern.

Stanley and Mimi get engaged.

Rob Hawkins and Jake Green go on a mission to save the world.

Sprague Grayden will be back as schoolteacher/fix-it girl Heather Lisinski.

Gerald McRaney is not expected to appear in any flashbacks during the seven hours.

The seven hours begin shooting Monday and should be wrapped by September.

Heather will return to Jericho find Jake and Emily coupled up.

Heather will get another potential romantic interest, but there will still be some “pull” between Heather and Jake.

Had the show received a bigger second-season order, a big part of the action would have been set in New York. As it is, the stories will again be largely confined to the title municipality.

I kind of hate to see the war that left us all on pins and needles just being pushed to the side…hopefully it’ll get a little more service before the cavalry steps in.

Also, New York?  I guess the Big Apple survived…or did we already know that?  I don’t remember, it’s been so long.  That’s what the DVD’s are for.

Anyway, it’s great to see that a show that just weeks ago we thought was gone for good is back up and rolling again.
