This show is bad ***. I assume it has been on for some time since I am not up to date on tv shows but it is still awesome.

As a kid my friends and I would go to great lengths to try to determine who would win in a fight. Sometimes it would be a Samurai v. a Ninja or a Knight v. a Roman Centurian. It just depended on whatever movie we had seen, I guess.

Well, this show does it for you. They compare weapons, defenses and methods of combat. The episode I just saw was Ninja v. Spartan. You would think Ninja, right? Wrong. Spartan's shield being used both as an offense and a defense was the determining factor. 65% of the time he won. The Ninja left him incapacitated and very bloody but at least he was alive. The Ninja was not. Ninja has stars and other weapons but shield blocks them.

Now is the 18th Century Pirate v. a Knight from 15th Century France. The Knights Morning Star absolutely crushed a dummy head in two. Devastating. The Pirate, however, has firearms!

Show is on now. This is on Spike!
 
Great show. These are the future episodes I want to see:

Frank Drebin and Police Squad v. Reno 911 deputies
Star Wars nerds v. Star Trek geeks (Or both v. teenage girls
Ray Romano v. Doug Heffernan
 
I like this show because it tries to compare different kinds of fighters. Even though I dont always agree with some of their methods of comparison, the show can be very entertaining. Yesterday they had a marathon and I watched, Spetznaz vs Green Beret, Maury warror vs. Shaolin Priest, and Shaka Zulu vs William Wallace. All were very good.
 
I got more annoyed as the season went on with how they randomly chose the weapons of each side and how they judged their effectiveness. The methods they used to test them often didn't make a lot of sense, especially when both sides had a similar weapon (like a sword, knife or explosive device) and then they would test them in 2 completely different ways.
