TV show description:
This dramatic science-fiction TV series explores the question “What would you do without it all?” A family struggles to reunite in an American landscape where every single piece of technology — computers, refrigerators, air conditioners, planes, cars, phones, lights — has mysteriously stopped working. Electrical power has simply gone away. The show also revolves around the idea of family — both the family you’re born into and the family you choose.
Charlie Matheson (Tracy Spiridakos) is the headstrong, curious and daring daughter of Rachel (Elizabeth Mitchell) and Ben Matheson (Tim Guinee). Ben is hiding a mysterious secret about the blackout. Maggie (Anna Lise Phillips), a medical doctor, became involved with him following his wife’s death.
When Charlie’s younger and thoughtful brother, Danny (Graham Rogers), is kidnapped by militia leaders, she must reconnect with her estranged uncle Miles Matheson (Billy Burke), a former US Marine and warrior who’s living as a recluse.
Together, with a rogue band of survivors, they set out to rescue Danny, overthrow the militia and ultimately re-establish the United States of America. All the while, they explore the enduring mystery of why the power failed and how or if it will ever return.
The rebel group includes fighter Nora (Daniella Alonso); General “Bass” Monroe (David Lyons), a former Marine who served alongside Miles; and Aaron (Zak Orth), a former Google executive and a computer genius who’s ill-prepared for the rigors of the technology-less world.
Captain Tom Neville (Giancarlo Esposito), a cultured former insurance adjuster turned Monroe Republic leader and Nate Walker (JD Pardo) is a member of the militia who has conflicted feelings for Charlie.
Episode #42 — Declaration of Independence
Miles (Billy Burke), Charlie (Tracy Spiridakos) and Monroe (David Lyons) launch an attack on the Patriots, but must improvise a risky new plan in order to halt the oncoming war between California and Texas. Out for revenge, Neville (Giancarlo Esposito) sets his sights on President Davis (guest star Cotter Smith). Meanwhile, Aaron (Zak Orth) and Rachel’s (Elizabeth Mitchell) efforts to save Priscilla (guest star Maureen Sebastian) from the nano-tech has unexpected consequences.
First aired: May 21, 2014.
What do you think? Do you like the Revolution TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for another season?
Oh my gosh don’t take Revolution off the air. I have watched it all so far and think it is one of the best on the air. It’s hard to find any good show’s now days and thisone was definitely one of the best or only on at this time slot. Please Please do not take it off the air.I watch it on Direct TV and really love the show.
Please don’t cancel this show. I have watched it from the beginning and really like it. Give it another year at least.
why all the good shows are taken off and the crappy ones stays on
A must renew ! This series as a large spectre of possibilites for developpement, new characters and so on.
What about a pair of twins for the nano’s to explore right and wrong ?
I like this show for it’s intensity and developpement. In all cases, bravo to the production team.
Renew. Do not cancel.
Please do not cancel this show.It has an actual storyline that doesn’t involve some reality tv crap.Revolution shows that someone out there in tv land still has some imagination.To them I say bravo keep up the great work.Im also looking forward to the continuation of Under The Dome on June 30.

Omg, Why would u cancel this show? It’s a good family show, Just love the actors and what role’s they play. It’s one of the best other than the The Walking Dead. I am sure there are many other show on that are stupid you could remove. Leave it on the air!!!!!!!!!!!!
please do not cancel this show – we really enjoy the drama – when will we be able to see it again – they say it moved to Wednesdays – can’t find it?
Do not cancel this great show!
Please don’t cancel this show!!!!!! It has so much to offer and so many story lines that could be developed!
Why cancel a show that is so well produced and directed. It is always interesting. Maybe if it was not always off the air for something else that none of its followers care about it would do better.
