The hype of Battlebots turned up to 11. At least with Battlebots you can fast forward to the interesting parts. Namely the fights. With Robot Wars the obnoxious "radio voice" announcer never shuts up and the fight is not so much operator skill and builder creativity as random metal boxes running into each other with other stuff happening. A classic example of not understanding what makes a show entertaining and turning up every other factor. The producers should be taken out and beaten with a pneumatic cylinder.

Robot Wars (2016) has a lot of potential but the biggest problem is they fill the arena with entirely too much extra stuff with, what I assume is, the intent of making things more dramatic. The problem is that this show is about a battle between two robots and some hazards are desired but when the arena has as many as this one has it really takes away from the actual function of the robots themselves and it forces the robots to not have room to get away and use strategy. I'm also not a fan of the constant replays and edited battles.... The cameras simply don't follow the action the way they should and this also takes away from the actual battle going on.

For me this was part of my schedule on a Friday, I was only nine or ten and this show excited me and my brothers.Contestants design robots and well, fight..It's full of rage and anarchy as robots slice, chop, and blow through each other to get go the finals, but the contestants not only have to worry about their opponents and the trap's within the arena floor, but the infamous 'House Robots', the worst of the worst. How, we jumped in joy if a contestant accidentally entered the space of Matilda, Shunt, Dead Metal (My personal favourite) or Sir Killalot.Great memories..

It's a great show, robots fighting each other. Then there are the house robots... very strong robots. All robots have to move through a course and fight each other, at the end of the show there's a finale. The best robot's are fighting each other and the house robots are also there.
