Revolution

I have a feeling it will get moved to the 9pm central slot and Ironside will get canned or moved to Saturdays. I still like it although its been slow starting these first 3 episodes setting up things. I started to wait until the first half of the season was done and watch all at once, I hate this waiting months upon months for the story to play out


I think it's been doing quite a bit to set things up... Miles being abducted, tortured and then rescued from the psycho's camp, Aaron getting killed and resurrected, Rachel's town getting full-on invaded, with people getting slaughtered right and left, as the "cavalry" steps in to take over. Sure the Monroe and Neville storylines are inching along, but there seems to be a bit more action early on than I remember the first season's first few episodes having.
 
I love the warning for an 8pm est show,"scenes may be intense for some viewers." That's why you move it to 10pm,this is not a PG family viewing show. I imagine that the complaints of violence are finally getting through to NBC.

Yep. I'm surprised how graphic the show is given its time slot...but then again The Walking Dead airs at 9pm and AMC runs marathons throughout the middle of the day from time to time. If parents aren't parenting or availing themselves of parental controls on their set top boxes or TV, they only have themselves to blame, not the network or FCC.

Good episode this week.

The show is clearly building to an epic resistance war against a much better equipped occupying army. Digging it so far. :popcorn

Thing is, kids these days play games worse than this or at least as bad.
 
Reminds me of Quinn Medicine woman when they have Stephen Collins (the doctor) which played the father on 7th Heaven help everyone with their wounds. I really like this show. You just dont know what is going to happen next. A lot of twists and turns.

This is one of my favorite shows. The last episode was excellent. There seems to be pieces of the puzzle that will fit together little by little.

I am thinking this so called U.S. coming back in are not really the "U.S." but it being used as a cover, or they got corrupt.

I think the "patriots" that run the new reconstituted U.S. government are like the same deranged people that arranged the nukes in the major U.S. cities in the Jericho show. The Defense secretary is the one that started the lights out and he was the one that hit the button to take out Philly and Atlanta with the nukes when the power turned back on for about 15 minutes. They are all connected and now they are trying to take over the continent again with the new U.S. government.
 
Wasn't it Randall that pushed the button to send the missles to Philly and Atlanta ?
Yes, it was part of the "Patriots" plan to destabilized Georgia and the Monroe Republic in order to come in as the Savior.

Though I'm failing to see how that's supposed to help them walk into Texas.

And how many soldiers can they have from being camped out in Cuba? Wouldn't Georgia have noticed them? Afterall they had tall ships and trade with Europe

Yeap, after he launched them and before he shot himself, he looked at Rachel (and the others) and said "I am a patriot". After that, maybe the beginning of the next episode, the president and an aide of some sort were sitting (in Cuba) and had a live computer monitor that was tracking the missles and the aide said something like "Randall did it".
 
Why do I get the feeling the show is suffering the Lost syndrome (making it up and changing things as they go along with no real long term plan).

Rest assured,the producers of Revolution,watched Breaking Bad,so there won't be a Lost syndrome here.:D

Given how many TV shows go*, I'd guess that the writers didn't develop the story long term.

* Networks kill shows after 2-3 poor rating episodes in many cases.

Ya, it all comes together clearer when you put all the parts together ...
