So how many of you are exited that Battlebots is back? I have been waiting 13 years for it. Anyone else in the same boat?

PepsiAddicted Battlebots was the US show, which aired on Comedy Central for I think six season. It had different hazards and no house robots, compared to the UK's Robot Wars, as well as four different weight classes (Heavyweight, the most popular, was close to the weight limit for Robot Wars, and Killerhurtz prominently competed in both).
I've watched the first two eps already, and it's nice to see some classic bots and experienced old teams return. I'm rooting for Tombstone right now - I've seen videos of it at events like Combots, and it deserves to win a large event.
