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?
We have a second chance to trend and get viewer rating up. NBC is repeating the season 2 finale (Yes I’m hoping it will be picked up). Even if you are not going to be able to watch it tonight turn your tv on to this channel to get viewer rating up. Keep up the campaign to #relocaterevolution. We are going to try and trend this again. The new phrase is in the picture. Do not use it before 8 pm tonight. We can do this!

Loved this series. Heartbroken that it’s canceled. Stupid decision by nit wit execs. This was the only show I watched on NBC. Sad.
Revolution one of the best series on tv disgusting it has been cancelled. Bring it back PLEASE
This is one of my favorite shows on television these days. I am tired of your reality shows.
Revolution was a show that let you use your imagination. We live in reality everyday. Please leave revolution alone.
Great show that should not be cancelled. Stupid idea NBC.
One of the best shows on. NBC sucks.
This caught my attention at episode one. Could not believe when they announced, “Series Finale,” instead of Season Finale. It’s on my must-watch list. Love it!
I can’t believe they cancelled this show. It had so much potential with Miles Mathison turning into a good guy. NBC is making a big mistake to remove this show from their line up. U
Cannot believe they are canceling Revolution. Why? To make room for some other idiotic reality show? Disgusted.
Please please bring back revolution. It’s the best thing since stargate sg 1. I’m still not over that ending so please don’t cancel it
Revolution is our favorite tv series….why cancel? very upset and disappointed

Go to NBC’s website. Also, sign the petition.
I can only echo what other people have said before. Great show great cast and great storylines. The network should listen to the viewers. BRING THE SHOW BACK !
Revolution is one of the most gripping tv series that I have seen in many years. I can’t believe that someone has decided to cancel it! Whoever it was should be sacked.
