The show that CBS couldn’t kill, Jericho, returned for a short season last night. Good episode, if a little awkward and missing a couple important characters. Great to see an excellent show back on the air, though.

If you haven’t seen Jericho, it’s the story of a small town in Kansas dealing with the aftermath of a nuclear strike that brings the U.S. to its knees. The only question is who did it? Was it Iran and North Korea? Or an inside job?

The evidence points to an inside job, and it looks like the show has shifted from dealing with the loss of the outside world and all its comforts to the drama of a new, reformed government that the citizens of Jericho aren’t sure can be trusted.

Oh yea, and a little revenge side story as the main character, Jake decides whether or not he wants to kill the man who killed his father in a clash between Jericho and a neighboring town.
