Remember the good old days? Unlimited texts?
I actually liked the first episode of Revolution. I had some issues with the pace of the show, but overall, it kept my attention. Let’s see how long it lasts.
The episode opens with a voiceover, recapping the Blackout / Episode 1.
Ok, we are in flashback mode- 1 week post blackout, Ben and his wife (Rachel, whom we are told has died, but I’m not so inclined to believe) are packing up their stuff, talking to a young Katniss, I mean, Charlie. They tell her that they are going on an adventuree
We are getting the hell outta Dodge
They are going to walk out of the city and into the country. And Ma and Pa are going to be there. And Nellie and Half-Pint and Doc Baker… Why not be honest? “Honey, we are f’d.”
Ben packs a small wooden box and a gun.
Rachel asks Charlie if she remembers when they lost Danny in Target? (And by lost she means “abandoned.”) Does Charlie remember how FRANTIC Mommy was?
I tried to lose him in Target, but he found us
“Yes, but I thought you were off your meds, Mommy.” Charlie replies
Great. Now we’ll never get rid of this kid
Mommy instructs Charlie to NEVER let go of Danny’s hand. NEVER. Ok, that would be awkward when he starts dating or masturbating. But ok. Sounds like a plan.
We see Ben and family walking along, pulling the two kids in one wagon and food in the other. They are walking past abandoned cars, there are smoking fires, etc.
Flashback to present.
Dr Mom, Aaron and Charlie are standing in the middle of the road like “hmmmm, where did Miles go?” (as if he disappeared into thin air)
Cut to Miles in a sword fight with some dude.
First Ass-Kicking of the Episode
We find out he’s a Bounty Hunter. Miles says “Monroe wants me alive right?”
Just call me: Nameless Badass #1
BHD (Bounty Hunter Dude) reply: Yes, but he didn’t say with how many limbs. (really? Who writes this?)
Dr Mom, Aaron and Charlie hear the fight and find Miles, who is about to kill BHD. Charlie stops him because he’s already unconscious- why bother killing him. Um, so he won’t be back to get you in the next scene?
If you kill him now we’ll have to hire a whole new badass for the next scene
Miles says “One day in and you are already a pain in the ass.” I can’t disagree. So Miles gets Aaron to help drag BHD’s limp body into a box car.
I didn’t sign up for this

Underwhelming. Gratuitous violence. Schmalzy scenes ,big reveals (oh my gosh Rachel is still alive!!!!!)
and and and and-Miles STARTED the Militia???? How embarrassing. Gratuitous sweat-Nora. Unbelievably clean clothes-little Charlie and the white wheels on her wagon, -no combs and way to many short haircuts and trimmed beards. Bring back Terra Nova,Jericho,and Jeremiah. Kill this turkey. Only Romney would pardon it
and then put it in the garage and give it an elevator. Gar Bage. Killer outfits on the militia. China must still have the lights on.
“I’ve got to return some videotapes”
Is my favorite line from American Psycho!
So yeah, this series is starting to play out like a Saturday morning kids show or something. First the Twilight Dad, then The Hunger Games similarities, then all the Lost people showing up (even Jacob, sheesh).
Also, now we know Ponyboy didn’t stay golden *sad horns*. Whoever wrote this crappy show has probably already cashed his check and is on an extended vacation.
And to think I had such high hopes. Aside from the schmaltzy dialogue, I’m already lost, which is likely no coincidence. Feels as if they are simply trying to capitalize on Lost fame, but lack believability, logic, continuity, likable characters and …. um…. perhaps adult writers
PONY-BOY!!!! Can’t help but see his face and think of two things…Dallas Winston *swoon* and a severed finger in a plate of fries.
Aha! Exactly! It’s like the 2012 remake of H.R. Puffnstuff! Thanks Mmama Llama!
“H.R. Puffnstuff”
Or maybe Land of the Lost.. haha!
This is what I’m hoping for, when they film the second half of the season(if it makes it) they will either get a new writer or simply fix whats wrong(and damn there is a lot wrong). The premise behind the show is beyond awesome and I’m a ‘post-Apocalypse’-type show lover(first word I thought of was whore then realized I’m not 20).
Maybe just maybe Charley is the illegitimate daughter of Charlie and he’ll show up to take her to the Island. I don’t think Matthew Fox has a gig on 666 park Ave, Hawaii 5 – 0 or the next bad horror film JJ directs.
