P.S.

At least Defiance is coming back. Next month (June) in the US.

I don't know if it will still be showing it in the UK. I don't think that's been announced.

...really in two minds now whether to watch the finale on Saturday knowing it will be the end of the Revolution!!!

Personally, I really don't think it will be picked up by anyone else. On their Facebook page, they have a 'Relocate Revolution' petition going here:

... I can guarantee that we will indeed be left with a cliffhanger ending! All Season Finales do generally end like that.......!
It doesn't bother me if it's all up in the air, in the end.

Just enjoyed all the nonsense, especially the Charlie action, indestructible - just like 'Priscilla'....thought they had her in the house last week.

Tom didn't last long, but is he out.

And Marion stabbed. - wasn't expecting that.

I liked the ending and it actually looked like they may have been moving away from the fighting and onto the nano.

There's a petition to try and save the show. Nearly 25000 sigs now. I know it's really unlikely but you never know

http://www.thepetitionsite.com/553/4...tion-season-3/

I'm gutted it's been cancelled so sign it if you are too

I wrote some sort of "How Revolution Story Will Progress", forget where (some forum or other) and it all went along spookily how I predicted, even right up to the end with the nano. Just weird, man.

...yea, I 've seen this on Twitter! I would sign it but they want your email address - which really isn't necessary unless they are gonna spam you with their products!!!

I thought it was quite a good ending actually....

I liked the fact that all the character stories were wrapped up - Monroe seemed to get his army back, Miles was given the 'give it a go with Rachel' shpeel from Charlie and the basically, the good guys seemed to have won the fight...!

As for the very ending with the nanos, I admit, it wasn't a total cliffhanger but it kinda ended in a way how a film would kinda end - hoards of people being guided by the nanos in a kind of open ended finish. I would have much rather have had this ending than an ending where the main battle story remained unfinished....!!

I also liked the way the presenter, at the start of the episode, announced, '......get ready for the very last, ever, Revolution'.

AWSOME!

All the reviews which I have read have all pretty much slammed the show but personally, I liked it...!!

Season 3 would probably have consisted of 50% fighting between Texas and The Patriots and 50% of whatever the nanos were up to

I thought it was a reasonably satisfying ending given that we're never going to see any more episodes. Still, it would have been interesting to find out what the nano were up to bringing people to Iowa (and baaad people, too).

It probably would have been an adaption of the Patriots plan

In other words they would have let Texas and the Patriots fight each other and then walk in an take control of what was left

As finales of unfinished shows go it wasn't bad at all. It felt like the Patriot issue was soon to be an ex-issue although we didn't have an explanation for the Patriot's Arabic writing. Of course it also started the story thread that we'll now never see the conclusion of... Bradbury and bad people and the Nano. The Nano thread for me was the least interesting so I'm not too upset about that. If it isn't resurrected on TV I bet there'll be some books or graphic novels to continue the story.

Well, I'm glad you liked it. However, I watched the first episode and came to the (sadly, all too frequent) conclusion that the basic premise was so completely lame that the writer(s) really didn't know what they were doing. I've popped back to this thread from time to time to see if it managed to crawl its way back to something resembling a self-respecting science-fiction show - it didn't. And the above review of the finale makes the whole 2 series sound like a monumental waste of everybody's time.

I'm glad I watched the first episode and even gladder that I stuck with my original opinion of the show. It's just a shame that so many people invested so much time and effort into something that had nothing going for it and such a flawed storyline that it was doomed right from the start.

I quite enjoyed the show overall (though it wasn't a classic) and the ending was OK for me.

Can't say I'm totally gutted it's over (maybe those two seasons were about enough for me) but commiserations to those who really wanted it to go on.

I think it was a better ending than I thought it was going to be. I'm willing to pretend the Nano threat was eradicated anyway and the whole power coming back on thing was world wide. Better than the truth which is no more Revolution. .
