How times have changed. Last year, Revolution looked like it was the big hit of the 2012-13 season. Now, NBC has cancelled it, according to TV Guide.
Revolution revolves around the Matheson family and others who live in a world where there is no longer any power. The cast includes Billy Burke, Tracy Spiridakos, Giancarlo Esposito, Zak Orth, David Lyons, JD Pardo, Stephen Collins, and Elizabeth Mitchell.
Following The Voice, Revolution started out very strong last year but the numbers fell as the season progressed. NBC renewed it for a full season off 22 episodes anyway and relocated it to Wednesdays at 8pm. It’s really struggled in that timeslot and this week fell to a 1.2 demo rating with 3.78 million viewers — an all-time low.
Not surprisingly, NBC has decided not to order a third season. There are two installments remaining and they will air on May 14th and May 21st. The final episode of ABC’s Mixology will also air on the latter date.
What do you think? Did you stick with Revoluton? If you ran the network, would you have cancelled the show or renewed it for a third season?
Unbelievable…n.b.c. blows it big time!
I looked forward to watching the show every week. it was one of the better TV shows on TV can’t believe they’re canceling it already I get tired of all these reality shows on TV this is another good show that’s been taken off the air.
Seriously what the heck???? That was the WORST series finale ever!!! Would have been an awesome season finale….if only it wouldn’t have been CANCELLED!!!! This was a GREAT show! And someone should at least pick it up for a season 3, if nothing else just to tie up the loose ends better.
cant belive it – LOVE the show
.Those people at Nbc just wanna 2 pull the wool over advertizes eyes with live viewers bull cuz they just can’t bring n live telly n 2014. Its just a graveyard of good shows cancel, Someone aughta tell em to wake up cuz its not the 1980,s anymore. I don’t wanna go back watching live Telly. Why penalize the viewers for watching a program on the day that is convenient to the viewer? They don’t know how 2 advertized without live telly!!!

This was a great series, I can’t believe that it is being cancelled. Please reconsider and keep it going, maybe another network can pick it up.
TV is just no fun anymore. Everything is so serious or pure reality crap. I am praying someone picks up Revolution and Almost Human. Maybe add it to the station carrying Fallen Skies. And then bring back Firefly. I love escapism from “REALITY” just like a good book…reading for fun.
Good, it was tripe towards the end and hardly class from the start. All the power is off….5 episodes later, it can come back, woohoo! As for Miles and co, how many times could they outrun automatic gun fire? How many times escape death with the same crap we see in 95% of Hollywood movies. It’s not edge of your seat when they are so afraid to kill characters when you know that someone will appear from somewhere to save someone. Just point a gun and damned well shoot it. Didn’t feel anything for any of the characters. crowbarred in… Read more »
I loved Revolution, you are probably the type that enjoys cliffhanging reality shows, the simpsons and other idiotic programs, hope rev is brought back.
Too bad they once again took an awsome idea, that could have been a real good sci-fi and dumped it so far down the cloaks it Will probleby never see the Light of Day again… :/
I agree, every time we get a really good show they cancel it. I also feel like boycotting NBC. Please let another network pick it up.
I’ve seen the whole show. I would enjoy a third season.
What a bummer I totally enjoyed this series, but they did provide an ending that I can live with, knowing that there will be not more. I would like however continue to watch if another network picked it up.
Really NBC this was the only show I watched on your network now that you cancelled it I have no more reason to go to your channel I’m just going to delete it from my favorite list. Why do all the good shows get canceled ? Hire people like us to run your network !!
Its a great show I have put it on the DVR so I can watch it since I have to work when it come on. I dont know how come all the good shows get ccancelled and the reality shows stay on the air. Keep revolution and get rid of the reality shows . All of my family and friends watch it and it would suck to cancel a great show like this one . Hell I think that is the only show I watch on that station . And if its gone I probably wouldn’t even go to that… Read more »
