I still just don't understand what the scenario here is supposed to be. Deadlists towards eachother? (Both are already dead) Deadlist towards humans? Seeing which can cause the greatest numbr of deaths over the course of a decade? Throw them in a glass room and see which one stops moving first?

It was zombies attacking vampires (they used 63 zombies per vampire). Spoiler:

In case anyone cares, vampires won....sorta. The show ended with an odd twist, a cliffhanger if you will. At the end of the final battle, you see the last vampire being zombified and the words "To be continued" come on screen.

Since they're up to doing fictional warriors, I'd like to see Wookies vs Klingons. They are both hunter-warrior races, both known for their tempers and great strength, plus it would draw in both the wars and trek crowds.
Why Mechanics-Alignment Integration is Bad

so why even play a fighter if you can play the paladin the exact same way behaviorally and get added power to boot. "Paladin" is about accepting better game-enhancing mechanics at the price of more rigid in game behavior.
Really? So it goes something like this?
Fighter: "I want to be a paladin."
NPC: "Really?"
Fighter: "Yes."
NPC: "Very well." Starts reading from a holy book while still in-character "Do you accept having to choose and stick to the lawful good alignment, eventhough neither of us actually knows that it exists or what it is?"
Fighter: "I do."
NPC: "Do you reject good game balance because you accidentally rolled a high Charisma?"
Fighter: "What?"
NPC: "I don't know what it means either."
Fighter: "Oh. Umm, ok I do."
NPC: "In the name of all that is metagamey and broken, accept these better game enhancing mechanics."
Fighter: "These what?"
NPC: "Just get out there and try to fulfill a million different people's notion of good while not violating and part of any of them."
So the system is designed such that every single hit needs to be described to avoid confusion? Here's a scenario. The players are nudists, everybody in the world are nudists, it's not weird, it's totally normal in this land. They are naked and they fight drakes taking damage throughout, but healing up with surges. Later they meet the guy who raised the drakes.
Part 1: I didn't describe any of the hits. What does he see?
Part 2: Lets say I described the drakes as biting the players, yet they healed up. What does he see?

And no mater how the episode ends it will cause many nerds to rage.

True, but I don't think that matters. Many nerdpires and zomnerds probably raged about the V vs Z episode they did.

Oh, ty. I love being right. In the end, it doesn't matter. So long as it gets more people to watch the show then it makes good business sense.

Yes, but that only leads to general nerdrage. You can see some of that general nerdrage by reading this thread.
