Top 5 Beatdown

In Top 5 Beatdown, Watcher's Ryan Bergara and Shane Madej argue over what deserves a spot in a top five list. Every episode brings a new topic, from the best worst movies to TV guilty pleasures to what to bring to a deserted island, and a guest joins the debate each time, such as Zach Kornfeld, Drew Gooden or Ify Nwadiwe. It's loose, silly and full of friendly bickering. If you love a good ranking argument, the question is whose list you'd side with.
