2013 - stuff you might have missed (Spoiler free)
Firstly, DVD news (...for the US ppls):
Walmart have Revolution Season One available for preorder, saying it'll ship on the 10th of September.
Plus, Season one's coming to Netflix on the 14th of August.
Secondly, you may or may not be aware of NBC's character-trading-cards-twitter-thing...now, I was as uninterested as you just were reading that sentence until I realised they had their ages on them. And you know how I feel about canon ages...or any canon facts really.
So here they are - Miles (45 y.o) was revealed first (at Comic Con), followed by Charlie's (20 y.o), then last week Rachel's (43 y.o) was revealed.
(Oh and there's a letter 'hidden' in each of the pictures for some random reason that I can't be bothered to worry about. And if everyone could just keep tweeting until we get Nora's age I can be content.)
Oh and - you can now get the pendant in keyring form for $7.99. (No USB included tho)

Now here's some random stuff I managed to find, by shaking the internet to see if anything interesting would fall out. And, well, it depends on your definition of interesting...
Turns out there is one picture of Tracy leaning on the rail where all the boys got their glamour shots in Monte Carlo back in June. (Via @Hollidayo, twitter)

And also another picture of David and Tracy being pretty in Monaco. (Via charriol.com)

And here's a pic from last year's Comic Con of the gang, just because. (Via @TVRevolution, twitter)

Then there's some nice big pics of our shiny cast at Paley Fest 2013. More if you follow the link. (Via Samsungpaleyfest.wordpress.com)

Lastly, there's an interview from (1st) March (2013) that Tracy did for the TV Addict, over here:
We Shine the Spotlight on REVOLUTION Star Tracy Spiridakos
"I don’t think she would have to distance herself from [Miles] for the greater good. At least that’s not how I see that going. She starts off at the beginning idolizing him because he’s the guy that’s going to help her get there, but very quickly, when she starts finding out all these things about him, is a little weary, which kind of takes her into a place where he tells her to do something and she would question him all the time. Because the more she finds out about him, the worse it is. And I think the development of their relationship has finally come to a place of understanding each other a little bit more, accepting each other for their pasts, for Charlie, for her mistakes and for being kind of new to this whole thing. Where at first he would kind of be a little bit more short with her, he gets it more now and he sees where she’s coming from. And I think they’ve really developed a strong bond. I think it’s really cool. I really like where their relationship has grown to."
Since the characters are sort of divided down into the two groups battling it out, what’s that dynamic like when you all hang out and you’re friends? Does it make any difference with what you’ve been doing against each other during the day?
TRACY: No, not at all. We really have a lot of fun. Everyone’s really sweet. Even David Lyons plays Monroe, and he plays such a good bad guy that you want to not like him. And then you talk to him for, like, a second and you just want to hug him. Like, he’s so sweet and lovely. And same with Strausser (David Meunier) who plays this kind of crazy maniac, and he’s a lovely human being as well. So we really have fun. Between the lot of us, we do tease each other a lot. We make fun of David [Lyons] because he and JD [Pardo] are really just easy targets.
Do you know more in the story than we do in terms of answers to some of the big questions, or are you as in the dark as we are?
TRACY: I only know a little bit just because we are a couple episodes ahead of what’s aired. But outside of that, I have no idea, yeah. I know nothing. And we try. We try to guess with each other. Or we’ll send an email to Eric just to see if he’ll spill, and he won’t, he’s tightlipped.
How different is Charlie from all the other lady characters we can see on television?
TRACY: I think the cool thing about Charlie is that she has a really good balance of being vulnerable and strong. Eric [Kripke] puts it best by describing her as Dorothy with a sword. And I think that’s kind of what makes her really unique in the fact that a lot of times you see the woman, the strong female characters who are already strong, whereas with Charlie, we get to watch her progress into becoming this warrior that we hope to see her become. So she’s getting tougher and tougher as it goes along, and getting to watch that growth is what I think is very interesting and unique.
Do you like sci-fi?
TRACY: I enjoy my sci-fi, yeah. I like a little bit of everything. Except horror, because I’m a wuss. But outside of that, I do, yeah. I think it’s fun. I like being able to jump into something outside of my regular world. That’s why I like playing video games and stuff, because I feel like I can really leave all my stuff behind and go into another universe, almost.
"...I want there to be a blooper reel, because I think they’re fun and funny. And I fall a lot. That’s kind of the ongoing joke. I’m a little clumsy, like a little puppy with brand?new feet. And so I think it would be really fun for everybody to just see. I mean, we really have a lot of fun on the show. We have a lot of fun filming, and we’re very close. So I think it would be really cool for everyone to see kind of the drama and the heaviness that goes on and then to counteract it with seeing how we really are behind the scenes. And I love being a part of the whole thing. I mean, getting this job is definitely a dream come true. I couldn’t be happier. The fact that everyone’s enjoying the show so much."
