Re: FIRST on "The Fosters" - Monday Nights on FreeForm 8e/5p Starting Tonight!

No matter how you feel about how the show reflects FIRST, you gotta admit, it's exciting to have a TV reference people can ask about that isn't flippin' Battle Bots!

I agree- unfortunately, though, looks like some people didn't take it the way I would have hoped " I've never been to a robotics competition, but according to this show, it's two parts BattleBots, one part Medieval Times."

That's unfortunate, though to be fair, the show didn't exactly capture the idea of "the game changes every year". Imagine how tedious and highly optimized FRC would get if we had the same game every year!

At least 1/3rd wasn't the other thing...
