Pitting challenging, exciting, upstart garden maintenace contractors against older, experienced guys seems like a game show adult males would watch. It also seems like something adult women would watch, if the young guys fail to wear shirts all of the time.

Points are awarded for height consistency, decorative patterns and speed. Extra time may be used to construct rockeries, shrubberies and decorative borders of annuals, etc.

Judging is by a panel of landscape artists, celebrity chefs and budding movie starlets.

       "Outstanding work with the roller, too, Wal."   

       They have to be chefs, [Zimmy]. They can't have anything to do with the industry, according to Iron Mower rules. We also have to dub everything in terribly overperformed accents, so it sounds really fake.

       Can we call it "Flymow Challenge"?

       You've never seen Iron Chef, [Minimal]?

       You should see me "speed-mow". Really.
