What's On Tonight (Tuesday): The Revolution will be heard

 

Via Tenor.

Tonight's Top Pick is the premiere of Disco: Soundtrack of a Revolution, a three-part PBS series. Victoria Principal approves!

While I wonder how many revolutions could have been solved with dance offs, let's see what else TV has to offer us for Tuesday, June 18. All times are EST.
