Jericho (1966 TV series)
''Jericho'' is an American espionage series set during World War II. The series stars John Leyton, Don Francks and Marino Masé as secret agents, and aired on CBS from September 1966 to January 1967.
==Plot and production==
Norman Felton who had previously co-produced ''The Man from U.N.C.L.E.'' came up with the idea of a World War II espionage series produced by his Arena Productions through Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Television for the CBS television network. The characters were perhaps inspired by the Jedburgh teams consisting of three agents, American Office of Strategic Services Army Captain Franklin Shepphard (Francks) expert in psychological warfare, Special Operations Executive Royal Navy Lieutenant Nicholas Gage (Leyton) expert in demolitions, and French Air Force Lt. Jean-Gaston Andre (Masé) skilled in small arms.〔p.180 Britton, Wesley Allen ''Spy Television'' 2004 Praegeer〕 Each week the three performed a mission behind enemy lines using their skills in espionage and sabotage where they met a guest star. Eric Braeden, who would be one of the stars of the more successful WWII series ''The Rat Patrol'' (which began that same season), was one of the guest stars in the pilot.
The ''Jericho'' theme was composed by Jerry Goldsmith, although Goldsmith did not score the pilot episode "Upbeat And Underground" (Lalo Schifrin composed the music for the pilot and a theme which was never used) - Goldsmith's theme came from his score for "A Jug Of Wine, A Loaf Of Bread And Pow!"
The series was canceled after 16 episodes. It primarily failed as it was shown opposite ABC's popular ''Batman''.〔http://www.cbc.ca/arts/film/francks.html〕
