Re:Appalling Attitudes (Score 1)

These shows just contain remote-controlled machines. They have more in common with that stupid "robot" boxing game (something akin to Hungry Hungry Hippos) than actual robotics (or at the very least, the robotics that you describe) - and I like these shows.

Anyway, we've had remote-controlled machines for decades, so I hardly think that these machines qualify as "advances".

At any rate, watching a robot flip hamburgers for half an hour would lose it's appeal fairly quickly, I would think...
