BattleBots

The new season 3 format is way more entertaining than previous years. Please stick with it.

What's not to love? Robots destroying other robots! Fun commentary and lots of mechanical carnage.

I really enjoy watching the robots fight. I do not enjoy the abundance of fluff and fanfare. In a typical hour, there's 6-9 minutes of battling. If they have to have filler, show details of how these machines were built. Show some behind the scenes of how the people put them together. They might do that for a minute but that's it. They don't have to make such a todo of the contestants pushing those stupid ready buttons.

I witnessed the Battlebots contests and filming twice here in San Francisco when Comedy Central was doing the show. I sincerely thought that they never captured the spirit or the true violence of the event.

What still doesn't come across is how large and vicious these things are, but the present show does largely capture the spirit of the event instead of trying to gloss over it with lame humor and WWE- style antics.

A shout out to the the talking heads, especially Chris and Ken who show real enthusiasm for the fights. That was completely missing from the old show.

One thing has happened for the better with the actual event. The pure wedge bots that did nothing but try to upend or shove their opponents around have basically been eliminated. Good riddance!!! They were deathly boring and probably the reason the old show stretched so much.

A great show, nothing to offend, and a way better than the old version. Give it a try.

This season has been a lot of fun. Great battles and great commentary. Our family really enjoys this show.
