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?
Yhyyy why??? fan from fin is sad ;(
I am so upset that they cancelled one of the best shows on tv! I loved this show. It was my favorite. You have got to be kidding me!! Does it really matter what we say here? Will they bring it back if enough cry out? I am not happy!
Totally bummed about this. Revolution is one of the best shows I’ve seen in a long time, hopefully another network will pick up the show….
This is ridiculous! I don’t even know why I bother to watch anything NBC has to offer for programs. They cancel either at the end of a cliff hanging season, mid-season or after a couple seasons or after two episodes. Just because it does not have 4 million viewers every week does not mean it does not have fans. I could see if the viewers were below 1 million but come on, stop canceling good shows!! Ugh, NBC you are very frustrating! !!
I really enjoyed this show. Looked forward to it every week. Get rid of the reality shows. Never watch any of them!
This was the best series in years. I hope another channel will pick it up. (Syfy, Tbs, etc.) I don’t think we’ll watch NBC since they cancelled Revolution.
Loved this show! What a shame to take it off the air!
Do more advertising???
DO NOT CANCEL IT :0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0
The best tv series ever! So sad, i was waiting at least 2 more seasons.
i cant believe nbc are not making a 3rd season, what about the dedicated fans, stop thinking of your profits and put your audience first, !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please don’t end the best tv series!
So upset that this series has been cancelled! What a great story line and cast.
It’s ridiculous to get rid of one of the best series on tv. Gutted!
WHAT WOULD WE DO IF NO ELECTRICITY ETC. Have thoroughly enjoyed this programme. Agree that there should be a series 3 . You can’t leave it where it is, there is no proper ending to this.
Who lives and survives the nano if anybody? Too many good thought provoking programmes being taken off air. Come on give us series 3, THE FINALE.
