NBC also picked up Revolution, an adventure drama from Abrams and Supernatural's Eric Kripke. In the epic adventure thriller, a family struggles to reunite in a postapocalyptic American landscape: a world of empty cities, local militias and heroic freedom fighters, where every single piece of technology -- computers, planes, cars, phones, even lights -- has mysteriously blacked out ... forever.
Twilight's Billy Burke stars, with David Lyons, Giancarlo Esposito, Tracy Spiridakos, Graham Rogers, Anna Lise Phillips, Tim Guinee, Andrea Roth, JD Pardo and Zak Orth rounding out the cast.
Kripke will write and exec produce alongside Abrams and Bryan Burk. Jon Favreau will direct the Warner Bros. Television-Bad Robot production, which filmed in Atlanta.
Trailer
I think it has potential...

Looks pretty decent.
The cast from the trailer looks a bit stereotypical of an american drama.
Bit weird they have crossbows, old rifles though when it's America, would be tons of guns to choose from.

there was a web release of this yesterday and eventually got round to watching it this evening.
It has the same post apocalyptic feel as the Walking dead.
Acting wasnt too bad, not much of the story has been told, but deffo looking forward to watching more.

Pretty much the same opinion. Seems to have a hint of Jericho about the story which is a series I really enjoyed so I think I'll bear with it for the time being

Looks like an unoriginal American re-hash of previous series'.

Agreed, but Homeland is RIGHT up there with it.

100% agree with this about Breaking Bad. Such a shame it's not on any of the main channels over here, it really is a masterpiece.
I was a bit sceptical about season 5 because season 4 ended so well but I was wrong, every episode has been brilliant.

Revolution pilot episode seemed pretty good. Agree that it has a lot of production value.
I'm way behind on series I want to watch, though.
