One Saturday night, fiance and I were hanging out with his brother and sister-in-law at their house. We were flipping through the channels and tried out Spike's new show Deadliest Warrior. Little did we know what we would be experiencing on of the best--and by best, I mean worst--shows of all time. The show takes two historical warriors from different time periods and pits them against one another. It's basically 6 guys playing with toys (weapons): two "scientists" and two teams of two more men. Each team are "experts" for a warrior in history. These "researchers" test the various weapons from the warriors and input them into a high-tech program (Excel) that simulates battles. These weapons are tested on various dummies including awesome ballistic gel dummies that contain a skeleton and internal organs. For example, one episode was the Ninja versus the Spartan and another was the Pirate versus the Knight. So the two teams trash talk one another while the "scientists" continually change their minds about who would win. However, the best part about this show is the last few minutes where each of the two warriors (two actors) meet in a random field and fight, because you know samurai and vikings would battle in a random field.
This description does not do this show justice. You must check it out for pure entertainment value.
