Anyone seen this show, it reminds me a bit of Defiance and I could see an MMO being based on that coming out rather than Defiance. Defiance has a bit more to it however and would still be better.

I've heard a lot of bad things about the show, but then I heard a lot of bad things about Defiance. Does it require watching a few episodes before it picks up, or did you find it strong from the get-go?
I watched the first couple of episodes last night, i found it a bit slow to start with but i think it will get better with time, definitely reminded me of defiance
Revolution is actually a pretty good show, with a few new actors/actresses in it.. I am surprised it wasn't an syfy release honestly..
I also liked other shows, that were cancelled sadly.. like..
FIREFLY!!.. who ever decided to pull the plug on that one should have been shot. also..
Tera Nova was shaping up pretty good.. I think the backing for them wasn't there in the financial department, and they could have been more creative in finding cheaper solution to their set/production, but it was a great show!..
That last stargate.. SGU?? yeah.. that could have gone a bit longer... (even though it was very.. star-trek voyager in concept) both of which I enjoyed (both were much better than deep space nine... ew....)
stargate in general could have gone on for ever.. I suppose they wanted to stop at the top.. but with space travel, alien tech, and unlimited possibilities with that fantastic story device the Stargate.. oh man... soo much more can be done.
i've been watching it. I enjoy it. Though I enjoy just about any post-apocalyptic show anyway.
Watched the first two episodes looks good so far
I see nothing bad about this show at all. TOTALLY different then Defiance though LOL Like not even in the same universe..wtf is wrong with some of you xD seems like EVERYTHING IS EVERYTHING These days eh? pffft haha xD
Watched the first two episodes just now on catch up tv, meh its alright not as good as Jericho but it does have sometime to fill out and ofc Dat *** on the chick with the crossbow damn! :p
can you give me a link for that site?Quote:

I was more thinking of the post apocalyptic style, where governments have fallen and militias have sprung up, not the whole Alien etc thing.Quote:

In fact when thinking about the whole dynamic of the show it made me think it was written by a republican who was worried about Obama outlawing fire arms, especially when the first villain you encounter bears a resemblance to president Obama and has a way with words to.
found it on hulu, watching now
I wonder if the black guy gets blown up like he did in Breaking Bad :pQuote:

every episode i believe right here.
though.. all of society would be thrown back to some dark ages.. rest assured, the government wouldn't simply collapse... chances are, we would all be under martial law for a small bit.. until they learn it's mostly never going to change.. in which the world turns steampunk.. there are more ways of getting things done that don't require electricity. in fact.. it is the kind of thing we could use, though.. would "western" civilizations be more prone to annihilation from over dependence on electricity, and the third world countries fly ahead in ranking since they don't depend on it at all?
the producers could use much better counseling though.. a cross bow.. 15 + years old in mint condition? not a single bit of blueing or paint rubbed off? the cables still very tight?? the cams not warped and well lubricated?? Imo.. I wouldn't want to be holding one of those and trying to fire it.. going back to recurve and traditional techniques would actually be safer. hard not to shoot holes in tv shows and movies.. but lol.. I suppose of things didn't blow up in great balls of fire it wouldn't interest people.
I thought the fact they started using muskets was quite funny.
Quite like Revolution, although I haven't seen the latest episode since they took their break. Gone are the days when a network can show a series without taking breaks.
The question is, who has seen firefly?
I personally love Revolution. It is a bit slow in the beginning but as the show goes on it gets a lot better. I also like how certain characters get their back stories fleshed out via flashbacks, especially Miles. Hope it last for awhile.
Side not it would be a intersting MMO. Not power, few modern guns ( muskets make a come back), swords return. It would be like a civil war MMO with more sides and some better equipment.
