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?
I love REVOLUTION!!!! I’m beginning to fear starting on a new series. It seems the good ones with good stories seem to get cancelled. This is the fourth series I’ve started watching that’s been cancelled. I am really upset over the cancellation news. At least bring it back for a 2 hour conclusion. All the series should conclude what they start. We invest our time in these programs & then they r cancelled with no thought or consideration of your viewers. SO PLEASE COME TO AN ENDING whether it b a third series or a 2 hour movie
DO NIT CANCEL THIS program!!
DO NOT CANCEL this program PRETTY PRETTY please!!!!!!
It was obvious from the “series finale” that the writers had every intention of there being another season, and that the series was cancelled unexpectedly. At the very end of the final episode, they began an *entirely new* plotline with the Nanos sending President Davis, Neville, and Truman to that little town in Idaho. While it’s true that they wrapped up the whole “evil Patriots” plotline in no uncertain terms, the fact that the Nanos are still a factor and that the world is still without electricity *prove* that they were not finished with the story and that there is… Read more »

Revelation is a great show !! all my friends and I, a showe and my. Dad constantly wait for each other to watch . at school we have our weekly discussion we were so upset we heard it has been cancelled epically when they leave a great season finally.
