Revenge is an American drama television series created by Mike Kelley and starring Madeleine Stowe and Emily VanCamp, which debuted on September 21, 2011, on ABC. The plot is inspired by Alexandre Dumas' 1844 novel The Count of Monte Cristo . [2] During its first season, it aired on Wednesdays at 10:00 pm (Eastern), and later aired on Sundays at 9:00 pm for seasons two through four. [3] [4]

Contents

The series was picked up for a full season by the ABC television network after garnering a 3.3 Nielsen rating in the 18–49 age advertising demographic for its pilot episode, and regularly winning its time slot against every other television network (CBS, Fox, The CW, and NBC) in the 18–34 demo. [5] [6] [7] Madeleine Stowe was nominated for the 2012 Golden Globe Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a TV Drama, while the series was nominated for Favorite New TV Drama at the 2012 People's Choice Awards. Revenge became ABC's highest-rated series in Wednesday's 10 pm slot since Lost 's 2006–2007 season and was the only new series in more than four years to replicate the 18–49 demo ratings success that Lost had in its time slot since leaving the air. [8] [9]

The series concluded on May 10, 2015. On August 4, 2015, ABC announced the possibility of a spin-off series. On November 6, 2019, it was announced that a sequel series with the same title was in the works at ABC, yet no sequel series was ultimately picked up.

As of January 2021, the series holds an approval rating of 69% on the review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes. [33] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the series a score of 67 out of 100 based on 28 critics. [34] Dorothy Rabinowitz of The Wall Street Journal praised the series, writing, "The arrival of one pure and unadulterated drama about a passion as old as man is something to celebrate. That's particularly true when that drama is as spellbinding in its satisfyingly gaudy way, as Revenge turns out to be", while awarding particular praise to Van Camp for a "beguiling and entirely chilling study in revenge lust". [35] Writing for The New York Times , Alessandra Stanley compared the series favorably with Gossip Girl, concluding that it has "just enough campy suspense to be enjoyable". [36] Episode 5 of the series received particular acclaim, with C. Orlando of TV Fanatic writing that "Revenge took things to a whole new level this week", and noting with reference to the set-up of David Clarke that "Victoria seems the only one with a conscience." [37]

Yahoo! TV mentioned the series among the top television programs of 2011. [38] The series also made the covers of Parade , Entertainment Weekly , and TV Guide , and was featured in Rolling Stone , [39] Vanity Fair , Vogue , People , Us Weekly , Cosmopolitan , Seventeen , and Teen Vogue magazines.

On May 10, 2012, ABC announced that it had renewed Revenge for a second season. The Hollywood Reporter reported that it was one of the first series to get a "stamp of approval" from ABC Entertainment President Paul Lee, who called the show "sexy" and "sticky", telling critics in January, "You just want more of it." [40]

Ratings

The pilot episode scored 10.02 million viewers in live plus same day, winning the 10 pm hour time slot against CSI: Crime Scene Investigation and Law & Order: Special Victims Unit . [41] Revenge reportedly was the highest-rated television series in the hour for ABC since Lost. On October 22, 2011, it was reported that Revenge regularly won its hour in the 18–34 and 18–49 age demographics ahead of CSI and Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. [42]

After a nearly two-month hiatus beginning on February 29, 2012, Revenge returned on April 18, 2012, at number one in the Nielsen ratings and won its time slot against every other television network with a first-place finish among Total Viewers, Adults 18–49 and Adults 25–54. Revenge won over an original episode of NBC's Law & Order: Special Victims Unit in Total Viewers (+33%), Adults 18–49 (+53%) and Adults 25–54 (+45%) and generated big year-to-year time-period gains in Total Viewers (+81%), Adults 18–49 (+35%) and Adults 25–54 (+38%), rising over first-run programming on the same night last year. The April 18, 2012, episode attracted ABC's largest audience to the hour since the middle of February sweeps on February 15, 2012. [43] [44]

Revenge premiered strongly during its second season, with a 3.2 adults 18–49 rating. However, as the season went on, due to negative feedback on the storyline, as well as the scheduling of episodes against Golden Globe Awards, NFC Championship Game, and the Grammy Awards, Revenge hit lows of 2.0, 1.7, and 1.4 in the adults 18–49 rating, respectively, within three consecutive episodes. The ratings never recovered back to the levels of the fall 2012, and eventually ended the season with a 1.7 adults 18–49 rating.
