The Short List of Things to Do
A guide to what you should see and what you should skip — and what you won't be able to avoid
Jericho
Like the post-nuclear attack America it chronicles, Jericho is coming back from near annihilation. Saved by fan protests, it returns for a leaner, faster-paced, seven-episode Season 2. It dials back some sluggish relationship stories and offers new details about life in the "Allied States of America," split at the Mississippi, on the verge of civil war and prey to a thickening conspiracy. The dialogue's still pulpy, but its action story is the bomb.
