Robot Wars

I loved this show so much as a kid! The robots were super creative and the commentary made this feel like a big deal! Always rooted for Wheely Big Cheese, didn't win too often, but when he did I was hyped! The house robots were also so much fun. Dead Metal was always a beast. It was kinda hard to find when I was a kid. I live in the US, so it would always just come on whenever. There were always robots I rooted against. Could never stand Chaos II. Don't get me wrong it was an amazingly build machine, just seemed like it always would win. Gotta root for the underdog. We need more competition shows like this in modern television. Just fun.

If your into technology this just show for you if not big fan of tech this still interesting show to watch.

I managed to catch an episode of this wonderful show purely by accident. We decided to stay home one Saturday afternoon, and as we were flipping around the channels, we happened across it. The first thing I heard was the voice of the host, Craig Charles, that I immediately recognized from another wonderful show, Red Dwarf. My girlfriend was ready to keep on going around the dial, but I wanted to watch, mainly because I like Craig so much. He's just plain cool! So we watched the show, and it was amazing! It's like...as we Americans talk about how it'd be cool to do this or that, and it's usually just talk, the Brits are getting out into the garage, and actually building this stuff, and finding their way onto international television, as well!

Hey, I'm gonna have to subscribe to TV Guide so I can find out when and where this shows going to be on again.

Peace!

When I was about 5 or 6 my dad told me about a TV show he'd seen that he thought I might enjoy. So we sat down to watch Robot Wars; it was love at first sight and it's remained my favorite TV show ever since.

The show presents some amazingly designed machines and we get to see them all destroy each other in some truly spectacular battles. In addition to the contestant robots, there are also the legendary house robots. All Hail Sir Killalot!

I was absolutely gutted when Robot Wars was taken off the air but those 12 years were worth the wait to see the brand new series.

It was quite different to the original series but I don't think that was necessarily a bad thing. It would definitely have not been the same without the watchful eye of judge Noel Sharkey or the enthusiastic commentary of Jonathan Pearce. If you have an interest in engineering, then Robot Wars is definitely a show you would enjoy.

Sadly this programme has once again been pulled from our screens but we can only hope that it'll return again one day......

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.
