Rumors of Heather's Death...

Dear "Jericho" fans,

Sorry, but I have no idea about Heather's whereabouts.  In fact, I have no idea about much of anything.  I just wrote what they told me to write. 

I have to admit, I was hoping to find out a few "Jericho" secrets myself.  But I got my info on a need-to-know basis only. 

The first conference call/story meeting went like this:

Me:  I have some questions about the Big Picture.
Them:  We thought you might.
Me:  Okay.  Um.  Who nuked everything?
Them:  Some bad guys.
Me:  Okay.  And...why?
Them:  They were upset.

That's all I can tell you.  You could probably have figured out that much. 

Guess we'll all have to keep watching.

See, this is why I HATE TV writers.

Present company excepted. :-)

Number one, they're always killing people. Number two, they're way too much into the suspense and the secrets. It's really pathetic how much I've gotten emotionally burned out by TV in recent years -- and all the while I'm telling myself it's only TV. You get all caught up in the story, and then they manipulate you for maximum suspense and drama, and then they do horrible things to your favorite characters, and THEN they tell you you shouldn't get so upset, it's only a story.

There oughta be a law, I'm telling you. Or at least a recognized psychiatric condition and trained therapists to go with it.

What's really bad these days, with the way the networks will yank a show off the air even if it's doing moderately well, is that the show can set up a "secret" and manipulate you until you are heavily invested in learning it, and then poof, the show is canceled and you never get to find out.

And if you're a cynical show creator/producer, you can set up a secret that you yourself don't know, and figure you'll get canceled before you ever have to reveal it.

(I have seen this happen. I would no more do it myself than rob a bank.)

The industry needs more like you!
