Series Debuts Tuesday, February 26 at 10 P.M. ET/PT

NEW YORK, N.Y. – November 26, 2012 – Syfy announces a gripping new reality series premiering Tuesday, February 26 at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT which reinvents gladiatorial combat for the 21st century. Each week, Robot Combat League will feature tournament-style battles between eight-feet tall, state-of-the-art humanoid robots controlled by human “robo-jockeysâ€

Oh wow! I have been missing battle bots. Hope this inspires a new generation of engineers

This was always one of those things (like Dodgeball on TV) that always sounded cooler than it actually was...


to me at least.

Sounds kind of interesting, but not something I'll really make plans for.

I hate reality TV. However, I kind of like shows like this because it feels more like a game show and actually has a purpose behind it. I actually feel like there are more of them nowadays, and that's good. It's much more interesting than watching cameramen following around a couple of guys/girls through their everyday lives. If I want to watch stuff like that, I'll just go sit on a street corner somewhere with a camera.
