Ashley Scott Comments on Cancellation
I love the Popwatch Blog over on EW.com, and you know that they made themselves even higher on my list by writing an article entitled “‘Jericho’: One Week Later“. They’ve been pretty amazing on their coverage from the fallout of the cancellation of the show, and one thing really struck me as I was reading their timeline, and that was a comment given by Ashley Scott at the Pirates of the Caribbean Premiere recently.
May 19: At the Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End premiere in Hollywood, Ashley Scott, who played Emily Sullivan, told EW’s Carrie Bell how she felt about Jericho’s cancellation: “It infuriates me. It is not fair to people who watched because we didn’t wrap it up because we thought we were coming back. Now viewers will never get a chance to know the whole story of the bombs and what happened or what is going to happen to these townspeople. It is just rude and I think people are going to stop watching shows like that because they keep getting shafted by these serials that they get into, then they get canceled and they never get any closure.”
My favorite part of the quote, of course, is calling it “just rude”. While I’ve never been a Emily/Jake ’shipper, Ashley Scott is currently my favorite actor on the show because of this.
