Is this good news for people?

I watched about 10 episodes or so when it first aired, but it seemed like whoever had the machine lowest to the ground that spun the most almost always won. It also used to piss me off that I'd turn on Comedy central hoping for some comedy, and then this would be on.

I enjoyed it (hell, I really enjoyed the lowest common denominator TV Sunday night with Celebrity Family Feud and then Battlebots.)

Wedge-design robots seem to still have the edge, at least after one episode.

I really liked it when I was younger and I thought the new episode was a lot of fun.

Good news for Grant Imahara, he needs a job.

I don't know who Chris Rose's color commentator is, but he looks like a less successful Kurt Warner.

Plowed through Season 2 of Silicon Valley. The crescendo didn't pop like Season 1, but it was still great. Really enjoyed the D-Bag guy and the robot lady.

Was kind of bummed they didn't get to CES. I also thought the way Belson was losing all season he was going to end the season with some kind of win
