Looks okay, little cliched and has echoes of terrible nova, but you never know:

Revolution - Trailer
"May God stand between you and harm in all the empty places you must walk."

its like hunger games meets logans run
"Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin. The bankers own the earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money, and with the flick of the pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again. However, take away from them the power to create money and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in. But, if you wish to remain the slaves of bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create money." Josiah Stamp (Governor Bank of England 1928-41)

that looks like an interesting series....
LORD HELMET:  I am your father's brother's nephew's cousin's
former roommate.

LONE STARR:  What's that make us?

LORD HELMET:  Absolutely nothing. Which is what you are
about to become. Prepare to die.

meh, can't be true... they couldnt have filmed that without bateries etc.

all a hoax, dont watch that
'Our lives are not our own. From womb to tomb, we are bound to others. Past and present. And by each crime, and every kindness, we birth our future.'

'We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection.
The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.'

hmmm not convinced looks like a poor mans jericho (which was excellent) and would there reallly be overgrown shrubbery everywhere and devolved cities to the shire style level after 15 years!! I'm no scientist but arent lawnmowers, tractors and cars etc a petrol combustion engine not electric?

did terrible nova get a second season? it was bad but reckon this looks worse.

nope it did not, they decided that even though Fringe was losing money they could make more in future by giving it 13 episodes (and access to syndication) than giving Terrible Nova another chance.

So we do get the ending to Fringe story without the humming and hawing about whether or not its getting another season ;) proper finish
