Am I missing the sarcasm or something?  I must be taking that out of context.
Season ratings

CSI
CSI Miami
Without a Trace
Two and a Half Men
CSI NY
Criminal Minds
NCIS

All appear in the top 20 for the 2006-07 season.

Jericho is nowhere to be found.

Even the week of 4/30 - 5/06 didn't have Jericho in the top 20.

I must be missing it also.  I found a list of the Top Programs on Broadcast and Subscription TV: Households for Week Ending 5/2/2007.

Howard, take a look at that list.  Jericho is 45th overall on the list for that week.  There are 18 other CBS shows that did better than Jericho.  And Survivor wasn't even CBS's top rated show for that week, it was 10th!

Ratings for the finale

I caught all the episodes up until the hiatus.  I, like many people, was waiting for something to happen.  Or at least for them to give us some tidbits of information about what the hell was going on.  It didn't seem like they were giving us any bait to bite when it came to juicy storyline bits. 

Saw the last five minutes of the finale.  It finally looked like they got something going.  Looks like it may have been too late, though.

I may watch again if they renew it.

I checked out that link. A 2.1,  ouch! initially this year, I thought the winter break would be a pretty good idea. I like the fact that the shows I watch could close out the last episodes on consecutive weeks. Every show that did a break returned with Horrible numbers after the break. Lost is WAY down, Heroes dropped off quite a bit. I knew Jericho dropped off, but DAMN! A 2.1 on a primetime drama finale during sweeps!!! Thank you short attention span America for killing another show I like!!! :angry:

PS. after seeing that, I agree that CBS likely won't bring it back. I can still hope though, right?

Howard_Casto:
Week to week ratings are not what networks go by (unless the network is fox) Jericho's over all season rating makes it around #2, under survivor.

What in the hell are you talking about???  Did you even look at the link I gave above?  You must really like this show and are delusional about its ratings.  Show us some proof of this alleged "#2" rating you speak of.  Or is this just a 'feeling' you get?  Hell, you state Survivor is CBS's number one show.  Not according to the ratings.  CSI is.

CSI is consistently, week after week, CBS's highest rated show.  Jericho, on the other hand, is about the 14th to 20th best CBS show based on ratings.  I'm not making this stuff up - its there in the link.  Jericho is always (yes always) behind CBS shows like: CSI, CSI: Miami, Without A Trace, NCIS, Cold Case.

For the Jericho fans out there, please don't get me wrong, I'm not ripping Jericho.  I actually watched the first two epsiodes and it wasn't for me.  But to have Howard state that Jericho is the number 2 show at CBS is just plain wrong.  I think Howard has a soft spot in his heart for Jericho and is just hoping against hope that it will continue into a second season.

To be fair, Jericho was pretty hot before the winter break. CBS was pushing it hard, it was on the cover of TV Guide, etc. After the break, noone ever came back to watch except the devoted fan-base, and even alot of those never came back. Personally, I think the show should get another chance because it did show it could be a hit before the disastrous break.
