I agree. I have been looking forward to this series for a few weeks. It looks like a good cross section of martial art disicplines.

It's rare to get attention for the FMAs--good news!

 

[Doc_Jude]

I was shocked at the Silat!

I'm curious, however, about the Pankration

 

[Brian Jones]

That they were doing silat or something else?

[JBrainard]

The whole series looks pretty cool. Can't wait for the FMA episode.

 

[Doc_Jude]

That they were doing silat or something else?

Brian Jones

No, just that they were doing Silat. Maybe it's finally getting ready to enter the mainstream. I'm glad that it's the season finale. I wonder if they're going to cover some ol' school Silat or just sport Silat, or just Silat Pulut.

Can't wait to see this.

After tonights episode I am pretty excited about this series...and yes it will be amazing to see the FMA get some attention.

Watching the Muay Tai episode now. Looking good so far. Think it may be a keeper.

 

[tshadowchaser]

watched the Muay Tai episode last night and I must say it was much better than I expected. I am looking forward to seeing more of the show

 

[Doc_Jude]

I enjoyed it, but it seemed that perhaps they tried to cover a little too much and the coverage was pretty cursory.
I also liked that they included the krabi krabong, all I know about it is from the Internet, but I felt that it took time from the fighting arts that pertained more to Muay Thai.
The militarized fighting style looked very interesting.

Oh, & I was dissapointed when the American didn't get his **** handed to him

 

[Mark Lynn]

I agree that the trailer for the FMA looks pretty good. We watched the Thai Boxing show and I was pretty impressed with it. Parts of the banter between the guys seemed hokey at times but over all it was pretty good. The fight coverage was excellent, even going so far as to explain the back ground of the training camps and such. Two thumbs up.

I hope the FMA segment is as good.

This comes on tonight at 10 pm, eastern time.

 

[Brian R. VanCise]

This one I enjoyed quite a bit!

 

[Hand Sword]

Just finished watching the FMA one--totally AWESOME!! Those different styles and methods--great!

 

[Carol]

I'm pissed off that I missed it but I'll certainly be watching for the replay later this week.

 

[MJS]

I completely forgot that this was going to be on. I was flipping thru the channels last night and caught the last 20min of this one. Great stuff!!

Hey Mike it was definately a good show.

You owe it to yourself to watch it today or tomorrow.

I think it's being replayed frequently.
