So you say you want a 'Revolution'?

Who turned out the lights? Apparently NBC and Iron Man director Jon Favreau will, along with help from J.J. Abrams, this fall when the new show Revolution debuts. Set in a world 15 years after humanity loses electricity and power, the show is a post-apocalyptic saga where rebels must fight against martial law and ... well, you get the idea.

As our colleague, CNN.com's Henry Hanks put it, it's The Walking Dead, Terra Nova and Falling Skies without zombies, dinos or aliens.

What do you think of the first look? The swordplay looks sweet, and it's always a pleasure to see Giancarlo Esposito (Breaking Bad), but will you tune in to see a world thrust into the dark?
