My Little Pony Friendship is Magic - I could beat up some regular ponies, probably, but I've been told these are special magic ponies, so eh Whose Line Is It Anyway? - 4 improv nerds? easy Severance - I could, without much difficulty, beat up every single person on this show except Mr. Milchick, and that's enough to cost it the round for me Avatar: The Last Airbender - lol Barney the Dinosaur - it's the Wonder Showzen argument again, but there's absolutely no argument that anyone here is dangerous Gurren Lagann - man even without all the mechs and weapons this is still gonna be a slaughter Moral Orel - Yeah, I could beat up these sad, middle-class church-going dorks, and in most matches I'd vote Orel here, but it's literally against Barney Gravity Falls - Several of the main characters are children or out of shape, but there's also lumberjacks, monsters, and an all-powerful chaos deity among the town's residents, so that's a no from me --- Khal Kirby, warlord of the Super Star Khalasar PSN/Steam: CheddarBBQ https://goo.gl/Diw2hs ...

Survivor - On average, Survivor seems to go for people who are naturally fit and healthy. Now, those people might be kinda hungry and exhausted, so I'd say it's a bunch of pretty average to slightly above average folk WWE Raw - lol The Simpsons - It's very close between Survivor and The Simpsons for this round I think. Both massive casts over the course of a long time, but I think what breaks it for me is that while Survivor is literally called "survivor," The Simpsons is made up of people that are for the most part out-of-shape. Going Simpsons. There's some big exceptions like Snake and Groudskeeper Willie but I think on the average Springfield is a little easier Naruto - lol Wednesday - This show has werewolves and gorgons and a giant killer Hyde monster Caillou - AND I'D DO IT AGAIN Queer Eye for the Straight Guy - bad luck for Queer Eye here, as they probably could've won most matches (definitely would've won in Block 15). I'm also glad I don't have to vote for them though because that feels like a hate crime Pokemon - gotta go through a full contest of which Pokemon I can and can't fight. I imagine most would be a no.

Some thoughts on the Survivor/Simpsons match: 1) It's interesting that everybody seems to agree that Survivor's cast is (or at least includes) the contestants, and not just from one competition but from all of them. I'm not saying that's wrong, but compare that to the earlier matches with Price is Right and Jeopardy where nobody thought of it that way. 2) While most of Simpsons characters aren't very strong (so many young children and comically weak old people!), I think Homer's many cartoon-ish durability feats might actually be enough to make up for that? He takes damage that would would kill any real person all the time. There's a good chance he wins by just letting you punch him until you're exhausted. --- Congrats to 2020 GotD Guru champ azuarc! ... Copied to Clipboard!

TPIR features each contestant for a max of maybe ten minutes, and they're simply vehicles for the show to continue to function, akin to a news show interviewing witnesses to an event. Survivor is a reality show where the contestants are actively part of the show. They're treated like cast members, albeit disposable ones. I was only thinking in terms of one season at a time, but I would absolutely expect one season worth of contestants to be present. It still strikes me as the easiest cast because The Simpsons is way-too-many-characters deep and the other two feature people who are legit combatants. Maybe I should consider Naruto on the basis that this is specifically a fistfight, and I concede that an average Survivor contestant will probably be tougher to handle than an average Springfield citizen, but Survivor seemed like the best choice in a line-up with four unpleasant options. As opposed to leaving Arthur on the table on a strong (weak?) day. Xeybozn posted... There's a good chance he wins by just letting you punch him until you're exhausted. There's an episode where he does literally that in a short-lived boxing career. I don't know if you were referencing that, but if we're going to dismiss EE&E on the basis of Ed's freakishness, I wouldn't count this out, either. --- Only the exceptions can be exceptional. ...

Contestants on game shows are kind of just "guest appearances" instead of main cast members. I think they're worth taking into account slightly but only as like backup It's sort of why The Reharsal and Nathan for You were both considered primarily just about fighting Nathan, since he's arguably the only person to be considered the main cast --- Khal Kirby, warlord of the Super Star Khalasar PSN/Steam: CheddarBBQ https://goo.gl/Diw2hs ...

I don't even consider the narrator a "cast member" in TZ, which I know is wrong, but it's genuinely just different people every time.

The funny thing is just how much we can pretty much vote anything in Block 16 (probably not Wednesday, and depends what we count fully for Pokemon, which I don't really count the Pokemon themselves) over anything in Block 15. Between taking entire Survivor casts and a bunch of randoms in the Simpsons (and cartoon logic) to WWE being... Yeah and Naruto having the likes of the Hyugas who know pressure points (and have nearly 360 degree vision) and the Lee/Guy combo who only have Taijutsu but still makes them demonic, which I'd say they still have... I think Block 15 is obnoxious to pick out of and I'd probably say Survivor. You can get them during/just after the physical activities, which I'd take over cartoon physics and wrestlers. Caillou is kind just the easier pick in Block 16. Even over my hard limitations for Pokemon. --- I'll just go back to gifs.
