Ready for the next generation of robot combat? Syfy has greenlit and shot the first season of a new show where eight-foot-tall state-of-the-art humanoid robots will rock ‘em and sock ‘em in a boxing cage until one is defeated.
The future-shock new series is called Robot Combat League and the project has been kept under wraps until today. The action resembles a real-life version of last year’s hit movie Real Steel, with large menacing robots pounding away at each other in a satisfying shower of sparks and gushing hydraulic fluid. And just like in the film, the ‘bots will be controlled by shadow-boxing operators whose movements are translated into metal-on-metal punches. WWE wrestler, author and Dancing With the Stars veteran Chris Jericho will host.
If you’ve finished Fallout and are hungering for more fun TV shows based on video games, you’re in luck. These 6 shows will fill your queue while you wait for the next season.
Don't Hate the Player Review (Episodes 1-4): The survival reality show brings 13 people on an island to compete against each other and win 150,000 euros.
Death Whisperer Review: Nadech Kugimiya makes for a beefy protagonist in this horror movie that any and all thrills!
I would watch this. It sounds like a fun concept.
How the mighty have fallen... reduced to hosting a rock-em sock-em reality show.
I honestly can't believe this is real. With some of the "real" shows TRU TV puts out with WWE producing I can't really believe this one will be real. I want to see if they are attempting to fake it, or if this is legit.....
If it's legit, I hope it doesn't end up like Robot Wars. Loved that show and it randomly disappears.
Wow its like Real steel is suddenly becoming real. I wonder if Hugh Jackman will be in this...
