ITV has cancelled Western drama Jericho after just one series.
Following low ratings, the broadcaster will not be moving forward with Jericho Season 2.
An ITV spokeswoman confirmed the axing to RadioTimes.com:
“ITV regularly refreshes its drama portfolio and consequently Jericho isn’t returning to the channel.”
RIP.

NO!!! It can’t just end on a unresolved cliffhanger! What about who shot Davey? What about if Davey is dead or alive? What about Johnny and Annie’s relationship? What about the unfinished bridge?
Please, ITV. Reconsider. We need a second season. If ITV doesn’t reconsider about renewing that show for a second season, maybe, another network should. I think Netflix or Amazon or PBS should save Jericho.

Dave says
Can’t Netflix, Amazon Prime, Masterpiece or ITV Encore save Jericho?
Dave says
Someone has to make a Bring Back Jericho and Save Jericho campaign of facebook and twitter. Boo to ITV!
Dave says
Will someone please make “Bring Back Jericho (2016 TV series)” on Facebook and twitter?
David says
Surely, Netflix could revive Jericho for a second season.
David says
Big mistake, ITV! Big, big mistake!
Di says
I quite agree with all posts. It is so unfair of ITV to cancel a classy show such as Jericho with no regard for either the quality cast or viewers. The least they could have done was provide closure. They did exactly the same with Jekyll and Hyde. Both were worthy of second seasons but itv’s expectations are, dare I say it, unrealistic regarding ratings. Maybe they should consider their production costs as this seems to be ultimately determining the fate of pretty decent shows
David says
All of the fans of Jericho should be out there protesting in front of the ITV studios or writing some letters to ITV letting them know about cancelling Jericho after just one series was a mistake. Bring it back!
Colin says
All the TV companies these days seem to cancel potentially good TV whilst continuing with absolute rubbish. Do all the TV companies (but especially ITV) deliberately hire morons to control their production & programming ?? The must have an agency who specialises in finding incompetents.
Jim says
Jericho fans should be petitioning ITV via Change.org, to recommission Jericho for a second series.
Just like the fans are doing with Beowulf and Home Fires.
Nadia says
Sigh. Another really good show cancelled. Why do I even bother watching new shows?
Annie says
You are so right.
Hank says
How can a show that was building (pun intended)
be axed.
Great writing and cast. A real feel for England circa 1870’s.
Annie says
We’ll have to think of this as a twisted ending. We know Coates shot Davey to protect himself.
Virginia says
Of all the shows that have left us hanging, this is the worst. I was so enjoying this show and looking forward to a new season. Couldn’t believe when I read that it has been cancelled. Not fair to viewers.
Dave says
Will someone please make a petition for ITV to revive Jericho for a second season next year on Change.org?
David says
I wish Jericho was revived by Netflix or Amazon by next year.
