In Short: Miles and Monroe are reunited as the gang’s quest to rescue Danny brings all of the main characters together in one place.
Recommended: No. (And also yes, if you’ve been watching the show thus far.)
MONROE: Did you hear we’re running out of bullets?
MILES: What?
MONROE: We’ve been shooting so many rounds for so many years, at all these bandits, all these militias, we’re running low. We’re gonna have to ration. Or start using swords. We’ll …

In Short: Miles and company suffer hallucinations as they try to get into Philadelphia through an abandoned subway tunnel.
Recommended: No
NORA: You have any idea what’s on the other side of that door?
MILES: Probably walking straight into a militia ambush.
AARON: Well, that’ll be par for the course at least.
What do you need to know about episode nine of Revolution? There were both hallucinations and a dream sequence, for mostly unrelated reasons. Enough said. Using one of these techniques is usually …

In Short: Nora is reunited with her sister while attempting to get to Philadelphia, while Tom plots against militia officers in order to keep his son Nate/Jason safe.
Recommended: I dunno.
MILES: Well, let’s be honest, you’re a sociopath.
Hurrah! An episode about Nora (Daniella Alonso)… said, no one ever. It’s not that I mind her character, and I even think her more recent backstory is kind of interesting. But somehow, instead of telling us about how she …

In Short: Charlie sets herself up to be deliberately captured by the militia in order to try and help a group of orphaned children.
Recommended: I dunno.
MILES: It’s irritating when a dumb kid tells you what to do, isn’t it?
Oh good, it’s time for Revolution again. We have reached the show’s seventh episode, and nothing has changed. While I am still enjoying the world building and all things Billy Burke, there is very little that I can point to …

In Short: Danny is reunited with his mother, while Charlie must face killing an innocent in order to save her friends.
Recommended: No.
AARON: This is a friend of yours?
MILES: I said he could help Nora. I didn’t say he was a friend.
Just when things start looking up, we take a turn back towards the land of predictable and emotionally uncompelling. I will go ahead and say if you’re reading this review but haven’t watched the episode yet, that’s probably a …

In Short: Charlie and Miles race the clock to stop a train leaving with Danny for Philadelphia.
Recommended: Yes
TOM: Come on, most of these boot licks are too afraid to hit hard. I know how you feel about me.
Coming off of last week’s much improved episode “Plague Dogs”, I was hopeful that the writers would cash in on the momentum they had started to build. Ultimately, I’d say they were successful. I was glad that the episode started off …

In Short: Most of the characters reunite in time to take on a crazed hermit and his pack of dogs.
Recommended: Yes?
CHARLIE: I thought I handled it.
MILES: Yes, you clearly handled it
This is it people, what we’ve all been waiting for, an episode of Revolution that didn’t completely let us down. I’d even go so far as to tentatively recommend you watch it. There were some unexpected twists and turns, improvements in the acting, and an abandoned theme …

In Short: Nora leads the group to a resistance base where the truth about Miles’ past is revealed.
Recommended: Kind of.
MILES: There’s a lot of men out there, okay, and sooner or later they’re coming in. So we are gonna Shawshank our asses outta here.
It was not a good sign that I had to force myself to sit down and watch episode three of Revolution, but I did it and I was left feeling only mildly disappointed. While the …

In Short: Miles and Charlie break off from the group to rescue Nora, an explosives expert who used to be involved with Miles, from the militia.
Recommended: Kind of?
CHARLIE: Where are you going?
MILES: Uh, this little place called shut up and stay here.
Episode 2 of any series is usually pretty telling, and so I went into viewing “Chained Heat” full of bubbly anticipation. Alas, instead of thirty kinds of awesomeness, my viewing experience had more to do with an …

In Short: The survivors find a zombie infested prison and begin clearing it out an attempt to make a new home for themselves.
Recommended: Hell yes!
RICK: I know we’re all exhausted, but we’ve got to push just a little bit more.
The Walking Dead is back, people! I literally fist-pumped when I sat down to watch the newest episode, and I did it again when I reached the end. The Season 3 premiere was everything many of the fans had …
