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.

I too, loved this show and have watched it from it’s inception. There are very few shows I can say that about. I had no clue it would be cancelled–I thought it was doing great. I am very disappointed, but also very put off with the powers that be that made that decision regarding such a high quality show and great cast. They had enough story lines developing they could have kept it going strong for years!!! I don’t understand it….
I say, “Ditto!” To all of your comment! 🙁
I am soooo disappointed hearing that this series is cancelled, enough with so called reality tv taking over all the television that is being watched again soooo disappointed abrahms had a good story line letting the supernatural get involved ruined it
I was also disappointed about the cancellation, but I am not sure letting the “supernatural” get involved ruined the show. The “supernatural” element was man-made–man created it, a kind of super-organism–that is, something that could think, and divide etc, without the things we usually associated with life. It was an interesting take on this facet of sci-fi because we knew the source of the “monster” before we even understood the “monster’s” agenda—which may in fact not be that evil–to want peace, is that bad? To us, yes, if it takes away freedom–but that’s what makes the show cool & complex.… Read more »
The only reason they canceled this show is because it’s just a little too close to what might really happen if WE THE PEOPLE don’t do something to fix it.
I have watched REVOLUTION from the very first episode to the last one. I was waiting to see when the next season was about to start and was very disappointed to find out that it was cancelled. Is there anything that can be done to get another season. Perhaps the channel would have helped because it was find until the change of date and time which it’s what caused not to have another season. I know there are fans out that are in the same situation and would want to see another season and perhaps many more.
I love this show I can’t believe it was canceled.
I can’t believe that they cancelled this show i LOVE this show. NBC sucks sticking with ABC and CW they know a good show. maybe one of them showed by Revolution
I cannot believe this show was cancelled! By far one if the best shows on tv!

This is a terrific show. It is far from done. Please bring it back.
I am so tired of all the good shows getting cancelled. What is wrong with Network Executives. Not everyone wants to watch the trashy shows like Scandal, etc. Revolution was a wonderful, quality, “what if” show. Do us all a favor and bring it back!!!
