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.

Hi UK viewer here, I love Revolution so does my husband, I think it should be picked up for another series.
Great show–keep it up!
Revolution is a awesome show! Original and the coolest show sinse Lost. Rebeccas comments are lame and sounds just like my ex whose name happens to be Rebecca lol, anyways Yes. Please be a Season 3 to Revolution. I just hope it doesnt turn to Lost like, I must admit I hated the lost like way revolutions second season ended
Revolution is the coolest show sinse Lost. Original and thrilling with non stop action and I think the cast are decent actors as well. Rebeccas comments are lame and sounds like my ex girl rebecca, hope its not but wouldnt be surpriseed it is you Lol! Anyways yes please be a season 3.

I absolutely love Revolution. I would NOT want it cancelled. Actors are awesome, especially Billy Burke and Tracy Spiradakos.
I love Revolution I watch it evernight and if I miss it I watch it whenever I can.I also love Believe and I like Crisis too.Please dont cancel revolution
Stupidest show ever.Terrible acting ,the melodramatics are non-stop even ,when nothing is going on.While all the while,you have that psycho horror music playing in the background every 5 sec Vancamp,is mega-annoying,and is hopeless as an actress,why is she always whispering in this sexy voice?Is she trying to seduce someone or what?Seriously!Please, for the love of God ,cancel this obnoxious tedious annoying show.
Rebecca, you are thinking of the wrong show. VanCamp is not in Revolution, she is on Revenge. So, everyone, that comment needs to be wiped out.
its a good show dont cancel it ,my whole family watches it
Please don’t cancel Reveloution, this is a great show with room to grow?
Do not cancel, GREAT SHOW
