‘Jericho’ revival among the top things wanted from Netflix next year: I second that!

The revival of the apocalyptic drama and action series from 2006 to 2008, Jericho, stands at the top of the list compiled on the website, Whats-on-Netflix.com, as the things we’d like to see from Netflix in 2014.

Jericho sits in the top category, “More Original Content”. The writer sees more content like House of Cards or Jericho as the things the massive movie service should provide.

In addition to more original content, the writer thinks Netflix should provide better suggestions for movies or television programs you might like to see.

I can see that. I often question why it is suggesting stuff so unrelated to my tastes.

Probably my biggest beef with Netflix is the authors third top change desired– Better Movie Selection!

It is unclear to me why a company with such a massive catalog, offers a relatively small selection of entertainment. Of course, I’d love to see more newer selections also.

The author’s fourth most important change they’d like to see means little to me. He says, “One thing I’d personally want is to be able to watch TV shows and movies simultaneously with other members of the family. Or at least a lock so one profile cant access a TV show too far ahead of a friend to avoid spoilers.”

I’m just not that much into it.

As far as releasing the latest TV shows within 24 hours after it airs–Sure, that would be fine ; however, with the exception of a handful of shows,its just not that big of a deal.

Back to Jericho.

CBS and Netflix are currently in talks to bring back Jericho. This was confirmed by the executive producer in July 2013.

In life, timing is everything. I believe if Jericho were released today, instead of 7 years ago, it would be a smash. It seems so much more relevant now and would garner a bigger audience.

    Jericho is one of the best series I have ever watched, and since I’m 60 years old, that’s saying something. Please continue with this series.

  2. Shirley says:

    Bring back Jericho! Only discovered it on Netflix and could not believe it was cancelled!!! Well-developed characters and storylines, poignant, on the edge of your seat entertainment. You could teach a high school or college level course on humanity with this series. Please bring it back Netflix with Season 3.

  3. Linda says:

    Would love to see Jericho back on the air with new seasons. There was still so much more story to be told. I would like to see talks turn into shows very soon.

  4. wilma J Benton says:

    I have been waiting an awful long time for somebody to come to there senses about this show. It might have been the timing, but the content is a very serious matter and pertains to modern day living; and it has many valuable lessons to be learned and thought about. To me, it is timeless.

  5. MareCadTITANIC says:

    BRING BACK…JERICHO…N O W !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  6. Jeff says:

    I’ve been saying the same thing for awhile now. Jericho came out at the wrong time. With the smash hits today like TWD, Revolution,Falling Skies…..there’s no doubt Jericho would thrive today. Bring it back!

  7. Gwen says:

    I agree – if Jericho was released today, it would be a smash hit!

    Netflix knows how many watch this show and that is why they approached CBS about making new episodes.
