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.

Don’t cancel, thie show inherited the mystery and surprises from Lost, one of the greatest tv programs ever.
It must be renewed.
I was a “Lost” TV show fan from the beginning. It was a new concept and would weekly provide answers to the many questions and mysteries thrown at us. But after several years they started do as many serial shows do, they had episodes that meant nothing in the big scheme and way too many repeats. I didn’t want to keep watching year-after-year with no end in sight and feared it would be cancelled and my time watching wasted as it was for Push Nevada and Dark Skies. Then they announced that the show would go on 3 more years… Read more »

Never was much of an NBC fan until they started showing Revolution. I missed the first season because of work and other obligation, but my wife and I have been catching up on Net Flix. We were watching ep. 12 & 13 last night and I told her that this show was addictive and couldn’t wait to start back with season 2 . We started watching season 2 and quickly realized that we had missed way to much of season 1. This is a great show, with a great story line and great characters. I’ve been a science-fiction fan since… Read more »
Love the show! Don’t cancel! This and The Voice are the only two nighttime shows I watch. I would prefer it back on after The Voice though.
