Okay, so what'd you think?

I thought it was okay. Too many nonfunctioning bots, but it was still fun to watch.

While we're at it, who decided that modified r/c cars (like the one in the High Jump) could be called "bots"?

I was expecting something more along the lines of robocup, or at the very least actual robots with some level of AI. I was abit disapointed when it turned out more like an elementary science fair with what can only be described as "contraptions" made out of common household parts.

The promo pieces on The Screen Savers were enough to make me cancel my SP before I bothered watching it.

Lame, too much talk, and cheesy "bots" - A "robot" that is a self launching arrow using rubberbands? The only electric bit was the trigger....

I like watching Battle Bots sometimes although it gets a bit repetitive, at least they are all action!

I tool look forward to watching Robots that aren't controlled by a remote control like the autonomous vehicle I built for an IEEE contest in 91 (and won)
