Robot Wars was on TechTV, before the ComCast goliath "bought the Red Car so it could dismantle it," i. e. eliminate the only competing network against its own G4 Network.

Yes, I'm bitter.

Well, it was somewhere other than TechTV, since I never got that station and I did see several seasons of Robot Wars. ;)

They used to show it on my local PBS affiliate on Saturday nights right after Red Dwarf, probably because that one guy was on both shows.

there was both the British Robot Wars and the American one, which suffered as most british shows do when translated to the US.

I believe the more compact, efficient verb there is "microsofted".

I liked G4, back before it became another Spike TV.

(bows his head in memory of The Glow)

But I liked Tech TV too. They had stuff G4 didn't. And vicey-versey. And now the remains of their combination has almost nothing I consider worth watching.
