TV Series. Drama. Action. Sci-Fi TV Series (2012-2014). 2 Seasons. 42 Episodes. Our entire way of life depends on electricity. So what would happen if it just stopped working? Well, one day, like a switch turned off, the world is suddenly thrust back into the dark ages. Planes fall from the sky, hospitals shut down, and communication is impossible. And without any modern technology, who can tell us why? Now, 15 years later, life is back to what it once was long before ... [+]

	Media	Author	Review
		Linda Stasi New York Post	"If you loved Spielberg's 'Terra Nova', you'll love 'Revolution' (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"
		David Wiegand SFGATE	"Yes, 'Revolution' is a good adventure yarn, but the other reason we're likely to watch future episodes is that it grounds the action in thought-provoking themes"
		Alessandra Stanley The New York Times	"Ambitious setups like this don't always hold up, but 'Revolution' has the potential to be a more disciplined 'Lost'--not necessarily more plausible but with any luck less preposterous and pretentious"
		Joanne Ostrow Denver Post	"If you like dark action-adventure with a deep mythology, you may enjoy this suspenseful hour, intended to perplex as it entertains. For some viewers, however, the questions will get in the way"
		Tim Goodman The Hollywood Reporter	"Does that make sense? If not, well, 'Revolution' doesn't make a lot of sense, but it's a lot of fun"
		Robert Bianco USA Today	"The less you think about 'Revolution' the more apt you are to like it (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"
		James Poniewozik Time	"Revolution comes across better than either of the aforementioned shows ['FlashForward' and 'The Event'], but there are still too many forgettable characters, stock scenes and flat patches of dialogue"
		Matt Zoller Seitz Vulture	"It's not quite so bad that you lose all hope, some of the images and performances are memorable (...). But for now I'd put it in the 'wait and see' column, without enthusiasm"
