There sure are a lot of abandoned amusement parks in this show.
I am glad they showed Maggie trying to get back to her kids. It makes no sense she would end up back in the Midwest though.

I might have been surprised if the promos hadn't declared that someone was gonna die. As soon as she was stabbed, I remembered the promo. Ugh.

Danny freeing Neville was about the dumbest thing any character has ever done on any TV show. He should be made an honorary member of the Lost cast.
"Yeah? My father? The one the men under your command murdered?"
Smashes Neville's head to little gooey bits with a brick and escapes.

I just noticed that she's not even in the promo shot up above. That's Elizabeth Mitchell on the far left, right?

Episode was okay. Danny not letting Neville die was idiotic though.
I did think Charlie's acting during Maggie's death scene was probably her most believeable scene. Although I really had no attachment to her. The back story flashbacks have been interesting.

Editted to say: The kid is MUCH better off nudging the thing to fall on Neville, then running away. Then to Neville's crew the tornado killed him. They don't know if the kid escaped or was killed too (blown away?). If kid kills Neville, they know the kid killed Neville and escaped.

Is it doing massively well in the ratings??? I either read or saw a promo saying it had over 30 million viewers.... I guess people aren't too picky.
I think part of the reason the actress playing Katniss (oops, Charlie) was hired is because she has amazing eyes. The camera loves them. Her acting skills... not so much.

I am actually sad they killed off Maggie - she was really the only character who had a tangible motivation for the power to come back. The teenybopper characters grew up in this world so seeing their perspective is dull.
I was thinking it would be funny if this was just a worldwide prank on the USA. The other countries caused the blackout in the US and no one has bothered to come and help us. Because really, they have no idea what is going on elsewhere in the world.

They always have the bad guy pull that, what would your dad so etc.. You could either have, "let you die" or even someone about not being them. Would it be a priority to free the person that is a nightmare to many, captured me, kills innocent people and will likely mess with me the second I free him? Nah, goodluck!
I am enjoying the show I just do not think it needs to run for season after season, if they do it will just feel insanely padded with filler.
I was hoping she was going to one day find her kids......appears not.

Revolution has been dropping slightly week to week, but as DJariya said, it's still winning the timeslot.

This article is kind of terrifying:

Watching this show already makes me want to stockpile food.

The decay that concerns us here is not just radioisotopes, but civilization. According to Severe Space Weather Events: Understanding Societal and Economic Impacts, a landmark report prepared jointly by the National Academy of Sciences and NASA in 2008, our civilization is indeed in grave danger of losing its power supply; in the U.S. alone, up to 130 million of us could be forced to go without electricity for months or years due to solar blasts. Little or no electricity would mean little or no telecommunications, water or gasoline (the pumps are electric), refrigeration, banking, emergency services, law enforcement or military security.
That's essentially the premise of Revolution, the new mega-budget NBC dramatic series produced by Hollywood mogul, J.J. Abrams. In Revolution's world, all electrical power has been lost and civilization has therefore been thrown back into a primitive, warlike, de-centralized state.
