Well, wel well, the new episode of Jericho was pretty good. Had a few too convenient plot twists, but I think it was good. The townsfok spent the first half of the ep in the shelters, sort of riding out the storm. We had one massive exposure to the fallout rain, and one minor panic exposure. Which led to the funniest line of the whole episode "they'll pay when my spider powers kick in" Heh very very good. Well, we got more information on the state of the world. An asian news broadcast came in on the sattelite if only briefly, showing a map with markers indicating supposedly where the impacts were. Then we have the voyagers, picking the four compas points and going that way to find out what is going on. Jake took the south road and found quite the surprise. Two Jets in the middle of the highway... One crashed, one not. Although, I think that I'm a little disturbed with the FAA or the research team on Jericho.. The black box recording can be played on an old Reel to reel? Tanks, F-18s, mysterious stock piles of munitions? ATC (air traffic control) being wiped out for all of North America? How were the planes radios still working? If it were an EMP the planes would have fallen out of the sky like so many dead birds. That didn't happen, a lot of them came down in corn fields, and highways. What happened to the passengers? Where did they go? And what about our mysterious stranger who says they aren't ready yet? what are they getting ready for and why are they so heavily armed? He knows too much to be innocent.
