Deadliest Warrior is what happens when you take the concept behind Mythbusters, and add recreationists who are just a leeeeeeettle bit insecure with their sexuality and pig corpses.

Seriously, I think Patton Oswalt needs to update his gay pride parade bit to be "make catty comments during Deadliest Warrior". This show is so awesome, and fairly homo-erotic.

Oh, man. Deadliest Warrior slashfic: According to rule #34, it already exists.

Primarily H/C, mind you.

I don't know how long the show can sustain an awesome level this high. I suspect it would be even more awesome drunk. Maybe with everyone picking a side. A drinking game is necessary.

I wonder why they have William Wallace Vs Shaka Zulu instead of a highlander vs a Zulu Warrior?

edit: I will admit, they lost cred when they said a katana compared poorly to a viking axe. Who ever took out a tank with a viking axe? Other than possibly the Viking Prince.

I love this show (even if the Vikings did get robbed). Reminds me a bit of two other shows I enjoyed that didn't last long.

Conquest

and

Animal Face-off.

I thought that the "dick waving" by the experts about their field and style and running down their opposition was a bit childish and unnecessary, but this is Spike TV, so it is not surprising.

But any show that displays what actually happens to a body or armor when hit by weapons is awesome in my book.

Phyllis and I are convinced that David Wenham (from 300 and LOTR- Faramir) is the narrator from the show.

Ooh, yeah, Conquest rocked. Still hoping that they'll release it on DVD some day.

I had it on tape and then burned it to a DVD, the quality isn't the greatest, but it is better than nothing.

My rifts character totally took out a Mega Damage tank with a viking axe! Of course, it was Tyr's axe... but still!
