  • The Jericho Finale You Didn't See: An Inside Look | TV Matt'rs | 3/26/2008
    Have Jericho fans seen the last of their show, now that CBS has aired the "alternate" ending/series-ender? Executive producer Carol Barbee, who is currently shopping the drama around to other outlets, shares a peek at the original season finale.TVGuide.com: Will viewers have any burning questions coming out of the alternate ending/series finale?Carol Barbee: Let me see.... I can tell you that in the original ending, Hawkins has to sacrifice himself to let Jake get away with the bomb and get it to Texas so it can be tested and prove that they were telling the truth. Texas would then swing their support to Columbus and defeat Cheyenne.TVGuide.com: Does Hawkins mortally sacrifice himself, or just let himself get captured?Barbee: Well, he gets captured but he's also shot.... He's pretty messed up, and Jake feels like he's leaving him for dead. So we show you where he's taken and you see that the mission for the next season is, "We have to go rescue Hawkins and we have to stop these... read more
  • Exclusive: Jericho Boss Eyes "Other Life" for Show | TV Matt'rs | 3/24/2008
    Might the folks of Jericho have some fight left in them after all? Not long after CBS announced its decision not to renew the drama for a third season (and thus air a series finale Tuesday night), I spoke with executive producer Carol Barbee about the sad news, the show's "amazing" fans, and this week's "emotionally satisfying" conclusion.TVGuide.com: I'm sorry to hear about the show. We were big fans of it here.Carol Barbee: You guys were great. I really appreciate it.TVGuide.com: When did you get word about CBS' decision?Barbee: Friday. I knew that they had an internal meeting on Thursday, to decide which of the endings we were going to show. At that time they gave us permission to speak to the cast, because we had requested to have 24 hours to speak to them, which I did on the phone, before it went out to the general public.TVGuide.com: The response on our news blog was astounding, and I've seen two common refrains from the readers. Some are saying that the fans didn’t... read more
  • Jericho Boss Previews Season 2... and the Series Finale | TV Guide Interviews & Features | 10/4/2007
    The fate of CBS' Jericho after its second season, tentatively scheduled to launch in January, may still be up in the air. But Carol Barbee has a contingency plan. The executive producer shot an alternate ending in case the Eye decides to cancel the show for a second time. "The ending that we planned was always meant to be a payoff for the seven-episode arc," Barbee told TV Guide at Wednesday night's Jericho Season 1 DVD release party. "It won't close off the whole story but it will show you ... read more
  • Jericho Boss Hopes to Return — But for Good | Today's News: Our Take | 6/6/2007
    As first scooped by the Ausiello Report, CBS is pondering new life for Jericho, reportedly at mid-season and for eight episodes. But as many have since asked, for only eight episodes? Or, best case, for lots more? "The idea would not be to bring it for eight and out, but... with the hope that it would keep going," executive producer Carol Barbee tells the Los Angeles Times. Hurdles include rounding up the "surviving" cast, as well as solving some "logistical" puzzles. "[The new CBS drama] Swingtown was supposed to take over the same stages," Barbee explains, "so it's a lot about [finding] a schedule that works for all of us."Originally, says the Times, CBS proposed a two-hour "wrap-up" movie, but Barbee "felt like that was doing it short-shrift. It's too big of a story."And the big moral here? "Networks are going to have to look at numbers and who is watching their show and who is downloading their show in a different way from here on out," says Barbee. "They have to understand... read more
