How Far Is Jericho's Eric Green Willing To Go?

Here's the Jericho I'm going to miss: a tough, thought-provoking drama where nobody's exactly right or wrong. And I didn't actually know what was going to happen after this scene in the cancelled post-nuclear war drama, or what Eric Green was going to decide.

The Most Shocking Gunfight Ever, From Last Night's Jericho

This scene from last night's episode of post-apocalyptic survival show Jericho really startled me. I had to rewind my DVR a bit, because I didn't believe what I was seeing at first. It was the first really surprising thing in this whole season of Jericho, which has been cool and subversive, but not really startling except in a twisty-turny suspense thriller way. But this clip — which you really shouldn't watch unless you're prepared for major spoilerage — changed all that. Click through for spoilers. More »
