Well, I definitely like the people behind it. I'll check it out and hope for the best. Although, I may change my mind by the time it rolls around. I've all but given up on network television, especially where hour long shows are concerned.

Hopefully it doesn't mirror Falling Skies and Terra Nova, where the best bit was the first half of the pilot (setting up the premise) then it just devolved into soap opera rubbish for the rest of the season.

Yeah I totally agree with that.

Those are two shows that leading up to their premieres I was interested in, but then I just wasn't feeling it at the last minute, and I didn't want to commit so I skipped them. That seems to be happening more and more these days, which is why I'm hesitant to even start watching something. I basically will wait and see on new shows. If it survives the 1st season, and gets good reviews, I'll catch up with it through Blu-ray. Otherwise, I think there's other things that require my immediate attention.

I wasn't going to watch this after Alcatraz. But I noticed the pilot episode was on demand early. Also, the pretty Greek actress was in an episode of Tower Prep and that so so Mortal Kombat short from a while back. Her acting in Revolution is kind of all over the place. But I guess she's supposed to be under stress. Still I thought her character would be stronger considering her drive to go exploring and using a Return of the Jedi lunchbox...I'll watch a few more episodes since it starts tomorrow. They need to give more backstory on the bad guy (The Cape!) and how power was lost.

I'm pretty sure how the power was lost is the spine of the show. I can't see them explaining it in one episode, it'll be drip-fed to us.

I'm going to tune in just to check it out. It's from Bad Robot so I'll give it a few episodes.

I hope not. There is a twist I didn't want to mention at the end of the episode.

I thought I was out on this show. But I watched the last 3 episodes last night and it hooked me. Tons of character development and twists now make this a show I look forward to seeing when it comes back on in a few weeks.
