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?
Please don’t cancel this show. It is the best show you have on air another than the Voice. Please renew the show for a 3rd, 4th and many more seasons.
Today is 4/9/14 and I did not find the show on the air, I sure hope it will return next week, I would like to see what happens between Charlie and Neville.
I too am mad that no show tonight. Next week is listed as a rerun already. Sucks.
This show and cast are absolute winners and need’s to be renewed. Great story and much better than most on TV.
The series would be great if they would eliminate that nano sci fi B.S. and get on with the real plot.
We have enjoyed the episodes and following the characters throughout the last 2 seasons. We would miss it if it was canceled. The humor and interaction between the actors is fun to watch and guess what will happen next. Thanks to the actors and producers! Tom and Peg of MN
I love the show….I cannot wait until the next show on Wednesday nights. DO NOT cancelled the show.
PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL!!
One of two greatest shows on TV, the other one being The Walking Dead…..I love This show and the cast members are exceptional above all others. The cast, the writers, the casting director and the producers all deserve Emmys….GREAT GREAT show, love it!
This is my favorite show, since day one. Never seen a series change like this one and it is totally refreshing and lets you think of the reality of being so very dependent on our resources and having them taken away. This is the true reality of the future. Pull the plug and see where we would be as a planet, a world of hurt! In my own personal circle, this show has an enormous following. It doesn’t get any better.
Don’t Cancel
Don’t cancel……..absolutely love it
DO NOT CANCEL THE SHOW! IT is one of the best TV shows there are. 🙂 PLEASEEEEEEE KEEP IT GOING>
Great show. Don’t cancel
Please don’t cancel it, please think it over, at least give us two more seasons? we are addicted to Revolution, we in Trinidad and Tobago W.I. beg DON’T CANCEL .
Don’t cancel!!
With the trash that is on TV today to think NBC would cancel something that is decent and keep trash is despicable. There are only a few things I can watch, most of the stuff would have been x-rated a few years ago.
Please don’t cancel Revolution!!! Love this show so much I bought Season1, so I could watch it again and again!!!
