Save Almost Human!!

Dudes! Ladies! Others! Help is needed! ALMOST HUMAN HAS TO BE SAVED! To anyone out there that doesn't know what it is, here's a the show trailer and i'll give you a full summary of the show as well for the lazies out there. 
*Ahem*
Look me in the eye and tell me that doesn't look awesome
Okay, Almost Human is a sci-fi tv show (SOMETHING WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH OF GOD DAMMIT, THERE'S ONLY SO MANY TIMES I CAN WATCH RERUNS OF FUCKING DOCTOR WHO BEFORE IT GETS OLD AND DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON STAR TREK OR BATTLESTAR GALACTIC ) Sorry, lost my cool there. But there's seriously only so many times i can watch something before i know every line and want to eat a fucking bullet. 

BACK TO THE POINT, Almost Human is a science fiction show that takes place in the year 2048. So get this, technology has gone through the fucking roof, i'm talking some kick ass shit here and the police are out of their depth so they have to find some way to fight back obviously and they create these robots that look like humans and can do all kinds of cool crap (example: flip a car or send an email). 

Anyway, the show revolves around John Kennex (Karl Urban a.k.a. Bones from the new Star Trek movies) who is this brooding but funny detective and really hates robots because of an incident two years back that i wont get into here but it had to do with a gang called the Insyndicate and some good people got hurt. Well anyway, he wakes from a coma because of that and can't remember much. He's then recalled to the force by Captain Sandra Maldonado (Lili Taylor), and partnered with an android, which he soon throws from a moving vehicle because this guy really doesn't give a fuck. With his new partner gone, he has to find a replacement and finds an older model of the androids, who was made to be as close to human as possible, named Dorian (Michael Ealy) and this motherfucker is so freakin' adorable. He's so sarcastic and lovable. The show is basically then about them kicking ass, crime fighting, and the growth and development of their relationship together. 

This show is so amazing. The dialogue is incredible and fun even with the main characters's sarcastic and dry senses of humor. The crimes are interesting to watch because of the futuristic appeal and the side characters don't all just 'fade into the background.' each comes with their own personality and intrigue. But, this show is pulling a 'FireFly' and is being cancelled after only one season. I don't think we should just roll over on our bellies and let this happen. It's not fair to the viewers. Help out by signing this petition so we can get this show back on the road.
