BotFans: While we all want Season 5 (10), let’s please remember to not deface public property
That’s for “Battle Bats” totally different show
But Battlebots is for the public. It's for everyone.
Yes, but know that you are loved.
I love it......err. I mean. Very frowned upon!
Now that's devotion.
Why wouldn't there be another season of Battle Bots lol. People like it, and last season was killer.
I'm almost impressed.
Luckily, this is fake.
Just the word 'bot' was actually there.
so true. stop acting like a heathen. it reflects on the rest of us who also enjoy Battle Bots.
SOW V Tombstone. Like if you want it.
Are you kidding? That's the resting place for Tombstone's bar. It's in Ray's memory
Idk what ya’ll mean by “deface”. I think it looks quite nice
That's some good photoshop right there
I say "tag it"
What’s that say? Battlebots seasons?
DATS AWESOME DOG
Tag someone's bot instead.
Photoshop LYF

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us here at BattleBots, and a very warm greeting from team Gruff - BattleBot!
Happy Thanksgiving to All BattleBots!
Dark meat, anyone? Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanks Giving!!! Have fun,.. looking foward to seeing more Battles when they come back on TV.
Happy Thanksgiving!
That’s how a turkey is cooked. Well done.
I'd love some dark meat but not that dark. Awesome 😊
Looking forward to seeing Team Gruff in 2020
So, what was the internal temp? Did ya check?
nothing like a little bit of melted crunchy tin foil with your turkey..yummie...lolol.
Now that's how to roast a turkey!
It probably came out a little dry.
Yeah, but how did it taste? 😛
😂 love it
Idk seems kinda undercooked
the way the kid was laughing worries me lol
❤️❤️❤️
*shouts mamma mia like Mauro Ranallo*
David
Gruff cooks the Turkey ,..Tombstones Carving It..!!!

Crew Shout Outs: Today we honor our Post Production team lead by CoEP Evan Gatica. This crew cuts and dominates terabytes of footage like a champ, and often under crazy deadlines. Please show your love BotFans!
Awesome show! My family are big fans! You all do great work! Looking forward to next season!
More B Roll ...I need more B Roll dang it! Huge thank you from this former editor to the post team. Consistant pacing, great graphics and the perfect color grade and pop.
Greatest team in the biz. Thanks much!
Credit where it's due, the turnaround from filming to broadcasting is insanely quick yet always looks fantastic.
Mad love for the post team. I saw the filming of a certain main event early in the season that was a snoozer (bots got interlocked twice and much of it was spent trying to get them apart. The aired version was amazingly seamless.
I do the exact same thing but in a smaller scale for the UK robotic combat event Extreme Robots
Beautiful show
Best show on TV, thank you for all your hard work!
Hope you are having as much fun as the show is for us fans. Thank you for gifting us with a great show. Now fade to WHACK!!!
How I feel when the Show is coming up. THANK YOU ALL ⛓🕹
that's a job I'd do 🤩
Get that man a better chair for his poster. He deserves it
If people only knew how much work post-production was... they'd be sending the BattleBots food baskets!
Please leave out all the sections with faruk ... most annoying guy on tv. thank you.
Not all heroes wear capes
Thanks for all you do! Our boys (4&6) are huge battlebots fans! To say we prefer it over Paw Patrol or a lot of the other kids programming is an understatement!
Best program on television PERIOD aaaaaaand is not happening without you guys THANKS! Seriously my wife loves the program. Watch re runs for weeks trying to fill up time til next season. I know i need thi get a life!!!!
Wonder what would happen if the editor got fed
Shoutout Saturday: Do you like our set design and the way it’s lit? Well, that’s the fantastic work of the JHD Group, the art department and amazing lighting director Rob Hume. Great work all!
Your new set looks absolutely amazing. Looks like there was a lot of hard work that went in to it. My son and I are looking forward to Battlebots 2020!
Y’all can make my set anytime. Brilliant!
Love the box design. It feels like a main event should!
It's pretty exceptional work.
I love all things BattleBots.
Great set, makes me feel like I want to be there live!💚🖤💜💀
They have done a fantastic job. And personally I am loving all the behind the scenes posts. Everyone in front and behind the camera deserve to be highlighted. I was wondering has there been any thoughts of changing the look next season? Even if it’s a change of the lighting colour of the set and audience for examples? Of course I wouldn’t change the clear lighting of the battlebox during battles as this is perfect.
I feel like if you wore 3D glasses while watching the robots will look like they’re attacking you 👓
BattleBots how long does it take to program all the lighting cues? For a 2.5hr musical it takes us around 36hrs to program
The floor interfered with too many fights. 😡
Love it.
RIP lighting equipment during the epic vertical spinner fights
That is awesome
I personally would like it if the kill saws came up anytime or randomized floor hazards. I also think after they ask the drivers if they're ready, the extra light effects isn't necessary before the yellow yellow yellow green.
Fix the floor.
Any word on the new season dates/location?
Bring back box music like in old school BB!!!
Any training around to learn how to build them?
Hey BattleBots, how’s that new floor coming? And are you moving to a new location?
I always have
When does a new season start?
My sons of 11 and 6 years old are fans of this program.. really good!!!...greetins fron Perú
That cage must have costed a fortune !!!
sorry, honestly couldn't care ... I'm an old fart who only likes to watch the bots battle, so I watch on DVR in about a third of the time.
Crew shout outs: Today we honor Director Ryan Polito. Ryan is the master of the control room, the person in charge of capturing the amazing fights for TV. Calling all the shots and cues, Ryan is one of the main reasons our Cable TV show looks like a Network Prime Time Special.
He did an amazing job I feel! Can’t be easy keeping track of all that mayhem!
Always directing us to classic battles! Thanks much!
I love all of you for bringing so much to an otherwise, junk television viewing. 🤙❤️
Excellent Job. If you have ever watched the raw footage on youtube, you can really see how much work goes into making the show.
Battlebots is an awesome show! Thank you!
Amazing job
Good work - Thanks!
Love Battle Bots and the episode in Shameless where Lip builds a Bot!
Saturday Shout Outs: Today we honor the Story Team lead by CoEP Matt Silverberg. Matt and team bring all the blood, sweat and robot tears happening in The Pit to life on your screens. Anything you see with the Bot Builders or Jenny Taft is the great work of the these talented story ninjas!
