Battlebots is a TV series that aired on Comedy Central from 2000 to 2002. It featured homemade remote-controlled robots that fought each other. Popular and inexpensive to produce, the show was re-run frequently. Some viewers complained that the show barely qualified as comedy (though it featured comedic hosts and ringside analysis by comedians, including the Sklar brothers). It was later revived on different networks.
