NBC's decision to preempt last night's Revolution for news coverage of the Boston Marathon bombings has pushed the finale of the network's successful drama series to June.

“The original episode of Revolution that was scheduled to air last night will air next week (4/22) at 10/9c and all subsequent episodes will ripple accordingly,” said an NBC spokesperson. “Viewers will not miss anything in the ongoing storylines. The new season finale will now [air] one week later on Monday, June 3 at 10/9c.”

The new finale air date will not affect May Sweeps ratings, since the finale had originally been set for May 27, which already falls five days after the sweeps ratings period ends.
