Revenge (TV series)

''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''. 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.

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. Stowe was nominated for the 2012 Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Television Series 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.

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. Provided by Wikipedia
