Hello Friends of JERICHO,
Timothy Omundson here (aka: Phil 'The Beard' Constantino).
Ich Bin Ein Berliner.
I came to this show as a guest and left a Fan. I have to admit that prior to my first episode as your Beloved Constantino (feel free to Boo and Hiss) I had only seen the pilot. I asked for copies of the first half of the season and couldn't stop watching. Literally. I kept telling myself 'just one more'. Next thing I know, it's 3:45 A.M. I was Blown Away by the Top Notch Acting and Wonderful Storytelling. By the time I came back for my second episode I was gushing to everyone on set about how much I loved their show. Once it came back from break, I never missed an episode.
Guest Starring can be a lonely thing. It's like being invited to a great party where you have to mingle but you don't know anyone...except for maybe one or two of the caterers. This job was the exact opposite. The JERICHO Family (cast, crew, writers, production staff) was one of the best groups of people I've had the pleasure to work with. All that stuff the actors have been writing about, what a great time they had at work and how much they care about each other is true.
I had so much fun playing Constantino and so much fun playing with Skeet and Mac and Gaston and all the others. I'll miss that. I'll miss not having to shave. And I'll miss sitting on the couch trying to figure out what the hell is going to happen next.
Thanks for letting me be a part of it.
All the best, Timothy Omundson
And now, a word from Constantino:
Dear Jerichoians...or is that Jerichoites? Doesn't matter. Give up! I will destroy you! I'm not saying I'll like it, but I'll do whatever it takes to see my Belvoed New Bern survive another winter.
Look, we all admire your spirit and your drive, but come on already! Enough with the NUTS! You're mad at us. I get it. I said I was sorry about Johnston. What more do you want from me?
Hang on. Someones at the door...
!@%$#*. I swear if I get one more Mixed Party Tray I'm going to go out to my shed and build a catapult and start sending these things flying back by the ton. How would you like that? Huh?!
Seriously though...Can you lay off ? I've got a pretty wicked peanut allergy.
Hey, that's weird. Do you hear Helicopters? Uh oh. I gotta go.
Love, Your Future Ruler Mayor/Sheriff Phil 'The Beard' Constantino originally posted here

Special Thanks: All the Fans at the CBS Message Boards, all the fans who donated to advertising, bought nuts, wrote letters and called CBS, Jeff Knoll , Amy Medina , Melissa at Variety Magazine, Monica at The Hollywood Reporter, Tony at Stars & Stripes, Video Editor Scott R., DJ Shaun O'Mac, Schumi, Clark and the Gang, Dylan, Trish, the gang that started THE Petition and everyone who signed it and Brad, Bob & Richard for their zany video greeting! A Special Thanks to NutsOnline:
In 2007, after Season 1 of Jericho was cancelled, Jericho fans were urged to make a contribution towards peanut deliveries... and NutsOnline.com made it easy to do! Be sure to support them throughout the year by purchasing from them! Over 40,000 lbs. shipped to CBS!
Why Nuts? In the season finale, the lead character, Jake (Skeet Ulrich) recounts a story his grandfather told him about a statement made by General McAuliffe during WWII. In this tale, when asked to surrender by the Germans he simply replied "Nuts" as a way of saying "We will NOT surrender - Go to Hell!"
