Stop Gap Revolution...
Entertainment Weekly reports that "NBC is keeping the show’s power on during its winter hiatus by rolling out a series of animated webisodes.
Starting today, the network is debuting online webisodes every week through Feb. 18 on NBC.com, YouTube, Hulu and on VOD.
The six webisodes are based on the letters written by Sgt. Joseph Wheatly (Reed Diamond), the character who led Miles (Billy Burke) into those oxygen-depleted tunnels toward Philadelphia and into a trap set by Gen. Monroe (David Lyons)."
Screencrush adds that "NBC will also put online a version of the pilot with commentary from show-runner Eric Kripke and executive producer / pilot director Jon Favreau, as well as make the entire first half of the season online beginning February 25."
Pilot with Commentary (x)
Mod Note: Being from outside of the US I can't watch 'Wheatley’s Letters: May 7th' - anyone wanna tell me if it's any good? And anything interesting said during the commentary? (I'm assuming it'll all be available to us foreigners eventually, seeing as all the other YT stuff is - but I want to know now.)
+ Oh And: If you want a Revolution T-Shirt NBC has good news for you.
...Neville has the most badass pose, and I don't even know what Aaron's doing on a T-Shirt, except IDK it feels ironic and so that's probably the one I'd get...if they came in singlets. I guess the Monroe Militia T-shirt's the most alluring of them all? (But I'd feel bad supporting a cult-like fictional military power. So pass.)
(Can I just say that I love our Show for acting like it's been on forever, we've had just 10 episodes...followed/supported by multiple cast interviews, photo ops, the Show's even been up for an award (People's Choice, but whatever) - plus there's spoilers and news in a sort of bi-weekly basis, there's merchandise, and now there's an Animated spinoff webisode series, and episode commentary (for the pilot)...
Hitting our Fandom milestones this quickly, do I need to ask if someone'll be announcing be the campaign for sixseasonsandamovie next month? Coz I wouldn't mind. Although I see the show as more of a 4-5 Season run. Now, where the hell's the comic book series?)
