JJ Abrams/Eric Kripke team up for NBC thriller 'Revolution' - Part 1

[Hunter Rider]

MilesGyver! I also liked Monroe and Rachel hitting reach other with some home truths.

That Neville/Charlie scene was tense as ****.

It was really well done and I was surprised that Neville actually pulled the trigger, but I think it is going to be a catalyst to Charlie ditching the nihilistic attitude she has developed.

 

[Teelie]

I hope so. That attitude is cute for five minutes then quickly grows old and tiresome. I also wonder if Neville knew the gun was empty or not and pulled the trigger anyways. I don't think he knew given the state he was in but I can also see he realized it was empty and wished he still had a bullet left.

If they cancel this series there will... be... PAIN.

 

[Hunter Rider]

Miles broke the bro code but has an interesting approach to romantic patter.

Goddammit.

And I'm betting the finale is super cliffhangery too. NBC!!!

 

[Hunter Rider]

Shame as the 2nd season has been better than the first, the chunky breaks have not helped.

 

[Teelie]

Another disappointment but not unexpected. It kept changing directions and seemed to be lost.

 

[Sawyer]

The remark about the show being important to Warner Bros. makes me wonder if they might try to talk another network into taking the show on, but I'd rather not get tangled up in false hope. Happy Endings last year just about ruined me...

 

[cheungcheung]

I stopped watching this season after the matrix episode

This season kinda sucked

Not surprised they cancelled this

 

[Sawyer]

This season was ten times the show that last season was.

 

[Man in the Suit]

So much better, but it meandered a lot. *Go to town, meet characters that only show up for that episode* Kinda got boring.

Now maybe Kripke can go back and work on Deadman for The CW.

Yes please..

Oh, you mean like Supernatural?

 

[Teelie]

Supernatural makes it work. Revolution kept stumbling and getting lost in the dark.

 

[Donut]

Unless they got an advanced secret heads up like the Being Human guys did. I dont see how this can have a good end & not a cliffhanger

Nah.

Comic book

 

[Teelie]

Nah.

Revolution's problem was they started off on one premise, jumped to another midway through the first season (the nanites causing the power loss) then threw in this arc with the fake U.S. government in season 2 and mixed it with a healthy dose of WTF when the nanites started to mind control people and perform near-magic tricks like igniting people on fire from nothing and instantly repairing damage to bodies. And that's only the main plots. There's the whole subplot of Monroe and his son, Neville with his family, Charlie and hers, etc.

 

[DrDoom]

Charlie turning out to be Miles' daughter........

 

[Sawyer]

You're dry-facing something that hasn't happened and probably never will?

 

[Teelie]

Now it never will since there won't be a season 3.

 

[DrDoom]

You're dry-facing something that hasn't happened and probably never will?

Cause it's my theory that has been shot down by people on this board

 

[Sawyer]

I really doubt it would have happened regardless of how long it was on. It's like the people who watch The Following and keep expecting Shawn Ashmore to be one of the bad guys. That's a season one reveal. If they don't do it in the first season, they're not doing it at all.

 

[Sawyer]

Finale tonight.

 

[smallville fan]

Stupid cliffhanger finale!!! Had they did a season 3 we could finally have the nanobots/lack of electricity be the focus again and perhaps end the show with electricity returning.

Exactly. It's like Lost all over again.
