Jericho has been canceled by CBS for a second time. After losing about 4 million viewers between its first season (when it got canceled for low ratings) and the second season, Tuesday night was the last episode. SciFi Wire has an interview with executive producer Carol Barbee about the possible futures for Jericho.

Collider has an article on the two upcoming Star Wars show. About the live action one? "Deadwood meets The Sopranos." While ComingSoon.net has an interview with George Lucas.

The Office will return April 10, with the first of the last six episodes that'll finish up its sixth season at eighteen episodes, which was shortened because of the writer's strike. Actor Rainn Wilson and executive producer Greg Daniels both say that rumors of an Office spin off aren't true.

What Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz, Lost's co-executive producers, have to say on season four having three less episodes than originally planned because of the strike. Horowitz, "I feel that the three missing episodes will be made up over the course of the next two seasons. Seasons four, five and six are meant to encompass 48 episodes." Kitsis, "I have a feeling it will mean more, like, two-hour shows as opposed to more episodes, but those are decisions above our pay grade."

David Eick has announced that he's adapting Children of Men into a show. Based off of P.D. James' novel instead of the movie, Eick says, "It's really taking root more in the origins of the novels in that it will focus on the cultural movement in which young people become the society's utter focus. Much like our culture, whenever Lindsay Lohan does something, it becomes the headline of every news show, it's about how, when you don't have a responsibility to the next generation and you're free to do whatever you want, where do you draw the line?"

David Cross and Bob Odenkirk will be returning to HBO with comedy pilot David's Situation: "David leaves Hollywood to move into a suburban, gated community where he has two roommates, a right-wing conservative and a liberal hippie." Filming starts May.

Fox has signed on for a fourth season of Prison Break. The new season will pick up where the last one left off, having been cut short by the strike: "Season four will pick up with the characters having escaped prison, and Michael (Wentworth Miller) seeking revenge against the people who killed his love interest. Dominic Purcell stars as Miller's brother, Lincoln Burrows."

Amy Smart will star in CBS pilot Meant to Be's. Created Glenn Gordon Caron it's about "a rich, young gallery owner who elopes one winter night in New York, only to fall victim to an unexpected act of violence en route to her honeymoon. After dying, she finds herself in someplace other than heaven or hell and is charged with helping people on Earth do those things that were meant to be."
