Another New Sci-Fi Channel Tv Pilot/ possibly Series coming our way in 2008.

SCI FI Channel has given the green light to a two-hour SF drama/action pilot called Revolution, the story of "New America," a distant colony on an Earth-like planet struggling for its independence from an increasingly hostile homeworld.
Revolution is created and written by Ed Redlich (Shark, Without a Trace) and John Bellucci (Jack and Bobby, Without a Trace), who will both serve as executive producers, along with executive producer Simon West (Lara Croft, Tomb Raider, pictured) and co-executive producer Jib Polhemus for Simon West Productions. The pilot, from CBS Paramount Network Television, is slated to begin production in January.
New America is a colony settled by the "United State of America" 50 light-years away on a planet resembling our own. The pilot centers on the Hart family, one of the founding families of New America. Tom, a former military man turned industrialist, is the patriarch of the family, who is facing great pressure from the government to tax the already heavily burdened colonists.
Tom's two sons have struggles of their own. One is rebelling against his industrialist grandfather and the old America; the other, more radical one is heading toward revolution. Tom's 16-year-old daughter, meanwhile, is simply trying to find her way in the world.
The show will also feature a governor torn between her allegiance to the colony and her desire for peace and a young ambitious bureaucrat looking to bring the colony back under control.
