    Where will it end, Ross? It will end with either the heat death of the universe, or the "bring back Con the Fruiterer" petition. Whichever comes first.

    I seriously doubt Jericho has been given a final season just to make the nut-posting loonies happy (despite what they might think), but what the campaign did do is give the show a profile and a false cachet. The market for DVD sales of stuff like this is enormous, and giving a show like that a proper ending will only boost those sales.

    The loonies won't understand this, and exploiting their new-found magical powers, they'll go ballistic every time any old crap is cancelled. So yeah, rod for backs. Man O Man is next. If you see a load of drunk women in Dorcas St, you'll know who sent them in.
