M-Net Series starts a Revolution

M-Net Series (DStv channel 110) has scooped what could be the score of the year if it lives up to expectations. J.J. Abrams‘ new series Revolution premieres on the channel on Thursday, 27 September at 7:30pm WAT – 10 days after it debuts in the United States.

In this epic adventure a family struggles to reunite in an American landscape where every single piece of technology – computers, planes, cars, phones, even lights – has mysteriously blacked out forever.”

A drama with sweeping scope and intimate focus, “Revolution” is also about family – both the family you’re born into and the family you choose.

This is a swashbuckling journey of hope and rebirth seen through the eyes of one strong-willed young woman, Charlie Matheson (Tracy Spiridakos, “Being Human”), and her brother Danny (Graham Rogers, “Memphis Beat”).

When Danny is kidnapped by militia leaders for a darker purpose, Charlie must reconnect with her estranged uncle Miles (Billy Burke, “The Twilight Saga”), a former U.S. Marine living a reclusive life.

Together, with a rogue band of survivors, they set out to rescue Danny, overthrow the militia and ultimately re-establish the United States of America.

All the while, they explore the enduring mystery of why the power failed, and if – or how – it will ever return.
