| - Deadliest Warrior is a television series on SpikeTV that determines (through somewhat scientific experimentation, conjecture and extrapolation) which of two historical or fictional combatants would triumph in combat.
- Deadliest Warrior is an inherently ill-advised television show recently created and completed on Spike TV, in which not only are warriors who would never have met each other forced to fight to the death, but given that there are only two sides to each episode, the title should have been "The Deadlier Warrior." One of the worst television shows ever produced. The Star of this Show is Chester Porter because he is a freaking beast and kicked Chuck Norris's butt.
- Gladiators versus Apaches. Pirates versus Knights. Ninjas versus Spartans. Samurai versus Vikings. Zombies versus Spacem... Uh... Never mind. Being that Humans Are Warriors, there are thousands of different cultures, each with their own philosophy of combat, and each with their own ideal weapons. They are legendary. They are powerful. And they leave only one question to be answered: Had a successful run, becoming the number 1 show on Spike after three seasons, though due to budget and production cost reasons a fourth season was not greenlit.

In English grammar, this is known as the common mistake of confusing the comparative adjectives with the superlative adjectives. When there are only two choices, the deadlier one is referred to as the deadlier one, because he is deadlier than the less deadly one, hence the adjective "deadlier." When there are three or more choices, the deadliest one is referred to as the deadliest one in order to distinguish him from one of the deadlier ones who is, however, not deadlier than the deadliest one, hence the adjective "deadliest."

And they leave only one question to be answered: This is the most basic argument to rock message boards all across the internet, and rarely will you see an Off-Topic section on a website without this somewhere. Someone had the bright idea that this would make a good documentary -- and it turns out they were right. Much like the Myth Busters (except drenched in gallons of blood), these guys approach age-old curiosities from the standpoint of the scientific method. Fighting styles are brought in, demonstrated, and boiled down into data. Weapons are examined by experts in very tightly-controlled tests. Descendants and masters argue their case about their strengths and decrying the others' weaknesses. All of the data is then combined into one-thousand simulated fights (5,000 as of Season 3), and from there a single result is determined and recreated in a dramatic re-enacting. All of this can be seen Wednesdays at 10 PM EST on Spike TV, or on the internet at their official site under Full Episodes, should you live in Canada and the USA . Had a successful run, becoming the number 1 show on Spike after three seasons, though due to budget and production cost reasons a fourth season was not greenlit. A video game has now been released, where players will be able to make their own fights between most of the Season 1 ancient warriors and a couple of Season 2's. A sequel has followed as well, with the various historical domain characters from the show being the playable warriors. Plans for a movie based on the series have been announced.
