Jericho, Kansas – Jericho
The television show Jericho is a forgotten gem of 2000’s drama starring a young Skeet Ulrich playing Jake Green, who returns to his hometown of Jericho, Kansas shortly before a nuclear holocaust wreaks havoc on 23 major U.S. cities.
The series alludes to Jericho’s location in a variety of ways. In the pilot episode, some residents are able to see a mushroom cloud rise from Denver, Colorado, and later it is confirmed throughout the series that Jericho is located in northwest Kansas. Some of the most direct confirmation we get over Jericho’s whereabouts are in season 1 episode 3 titled “Four Horsemen,” where a map places Jericho’s location at the same place as Ness City, Kansas—a small town about 100 miles east of the Colorado border.
