R is for Revolution (and Robromance)

Click to see theme

Revolution is currently one of my favorite shows on TV. It's about a future Earth where all power has gone out, and is not recoverable. The reason the power can't come back on is a very sci-fi reason, having to do with nanites. The nanites are mostly invisible, except when they make themselves known in the form of fireflies. Oh yeah, they can also control your brain, and kill people with spontaneous combustion.

The first season did not have so many sci-fi aspects, which is probably why it was more popular. As a sci-fi fanatic, I love that the show has come fully on board the sci-fi crazy train. Unfortunately, that makes it less popular with the general public, so the show is in danger of not being renewed for a third season. If I could only choose one renewal, I would choose Almost Human. But if I could choose two, Revolution would be my other choice.

Revolution airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. on NBC
Please excuse the low quality gif, as I could only find the clip I wanted online
I've also made the gif available on this Tumblr post.

Speaking of Almost Human, one of the best things about that show is the hilarious and wonderful "#robromance," as in, a bromance between a human and an android.

I also shared this gif under "A" for Almost Human

Cheese enthusiasts! I heartily recommend this powerful cheddar. Not cheap, but it's my current fave. #rugged pic.twitter.com/XaaWh0n73A
