Great show or greatest show?
But seriously, do you watch it? And if so, what was your favourite warriors/matchup?

Dumbest show ever.
The match-ups make no sense!
The Spoony One has your answers!

I somewhat watch it. I put it on DVR and just fast forward to the last 15 min of the show (the acted playout) because really thats the only thing of relevance.. the rest of the show comparing weapons and tactics is beyond boring, especially because I typically already know all the little factoids they belt out.
i watch it, but recently i haven't been, ever scence the nazi SS vs the viet cong.
but i like the show but i disagree with the matchups like the spartan vs ninja, it just wasen't fair, they put the ninja in a one on one fight against a spartan and they basicly took away the whole point of being a ninja, stealth. but otherwise my favorite matchup was spartan vs samurai, i had always wondored who would win and i guessed correctly.

Green Beret vs Spetsnaz was the only episode I watched.
The entire episode felt biased toward one side to keep it even until the end. And the Green Berets acted like they were just yanked from their trailers and told to dress up like soldiers, whereas the Spetsnaz looked almost as if the makers of the show reached into a pool of cliches and grabbed "russian" out.
Terrible, terrible show from what I saw. I will not be watching again.

The only thing that show ever did right was get sexyman Mike Baker to provide insight on the CIA.
Pirate vs Knight was my favourite, yarr harr!
Edit: Okay, I watched this:

And I have to say I agree with them. I just like the show because of the simulations and the announcer.Hubilub said:
It's okay I guess, but the science is typically fucked up and the match ups never make a bit of sense
I like the show. Its cool to see everything go down,a nd different weapons.
As for my favorite episode(s), in order:
-Knight vs. Pirate
-Apache vs. Gladiator
-Jesse James vs. Al Capone
-IRA vs. Taliban
-Rajput vs. Roman Centurion
Although I do have to say, i think people are missing the point of this. This is SPIKE TV! The channel for MEN. As long as it looks cool and is violent and bloody its for Spike Tv. if you want real, watch the History Channel. Also, that video is generalizing.
Everyone is entitled to an opinion, but I would suggest searching for a match you think you would like and watch it and then maybe watch a second one you think you may want to see then draw an opinion.

I keep wondering why people say the science is fucked up. Its not supposed to make sense. Its just mindless violent fun.
I really dislike the show, because it cheapens the most elite, awesome soldiers and warlords from history into a pseudoscientific shouting match between two manchildren.
"A viking would beat up a samurai!"
"Nuh-uh!"
"Yeah-huh!"
"Nuh-uh!"
Acting like one is superior to the other, as if there was ever some sort of "ultimate killer" who could beat everyone else, is a dumbing down of the rich, violent, crazy history of the human race, and an offense to the most awesome, best-trained people who ever existed or who exist today.
In short, it doesn't matter who these idiots on Spike think is "better". All that matters is that they're better than they are.

It is an AWESOME idea for a show.
That was dumbed down to an incredibly low level to appeal to the general Spike audience.
I can't stand to watch it.

now i want 4 million of those gel torsos to blow up to my hearts content.

I watch it. Its generally "meh" and its rather predictable. Group 1 says they kill group 2, 2 says they can't for various reasons. But the B-movie stuff is entertaining at least.
Sure people complain about the science being dumbed down/flaw, but this is SpikeTV after all. They're not exactly trying to appeal to geniuses.
