Revolution Intended as an "Epic, Fun Saga"

Iron Man's Jon Favreau and Supernatural's Eric Kripke discuss how they want their new series to avoid the usual dystopian post-apoclyptic story

Ever see Jericho, or the one with Luke Perry called Jeremiah ?

The show looks good, and with EMPs could happen someday.

Never seen them. They sound like bible stuff. After NBC's Heroes and Chuck ended, Revolution will be the show that gets me tuning in again on the network.

Speaking of bible, have to go meet up with Ryan tomorrow for Jesus talk

Jericho is just the towns name in the show, it's pretty good actually, but the ending is lacking.
The other is more on the lines of Revolution, but the ending really stinks, but it's an alright series on that line.

Don't expect a lot, it's Luke Perry
Have you seen how old the guy looks lately, maybe he has Aids.

Jericho was pretty good, if I was going to watch either again it would be the one.

Tonight's season two episode 9 of The Amazing Race Australia was the Vancouver episode. It was good. I really enjoyed watching it. The final challenge of the leg was to get on top of the Grouse Mountain Skyride and grab three flags. There was also an axe throwing challenge. Would be fun to do that someday. Must have been in North Vancouver.

Too bad it wasn't the American version of the Amazing Race. The American version never have their teams come to Canada. I guess Canada is too close to America.

I bet that's great seeing the places you live on there, and can tell where it's all going

Anyone see Lost Girl ?
Well not much to say about it, but I watch it sometimes since it's on.
It has a lot of corn in it

Lost girl? Never heard of it... is it a mystery type show, Frosty?

Off topic but I wish they'd bring back another new Star Trek series, a good one. We don't even get the repeats anymore over here like we used to, unless you pay for Sky TV.

it's really not that good of a show, the only reason I watch it is hope that something better will come out or it since it has mythology mixed in .

Yeah a good StarTrek would be nice, but no tights please or spandex

OK, no spandex, tights or shrunken trousers washed at 60 degrees. Just don't seem to be any good shows on right now... or they're just not showing them over here.

Nothing worth mentioning on here, but that's TV anymore.

They need some fresh ideas... not same old sludge they keep on turning out.

I know, revenge of the Tribbles The Tribble wars .

No not them, forever swamped in fur balls. A time travel series. That'd be hard to conjure up I reckon... and expensive.

Well they never did a series with the war with the Klingon Empire, they just skirted by that .
It would be cool to see some good battles, and last in space stuff.

Klingons, no never did... it was always teetering on the edge of war but never ended up there. They seemed a bit tame once the Borg showed up.

The Borg was pretty tame after the first meeting with them on Best of Both Worlds.

Just saw the pilot. I thought it was really interesting. Kind of like The Walking Dead, except no zombies. 15 years after the world lost electricity. Nobody knows why or how. The adventure starts when Charlie sets out to find her uncle. A dangerous world full of thieves and crime. Men ride horses. A key from her dad holds the secret to all.

Ok, what I really thought about the pilot was everything seem rushed. Getting to Chicago didn't take 4-5 episodes. The actress who plays Charlie is gorgeous, but her acting could have been better. Didn't really get to know her all too well. I felt like her uncle stole the show. Anyways, I'm excited for episode 2.

The Revolution pilot debuts on NBC September 17th. Thousands already have the episode on their computer though
