American Gladiators

[Iceaxe]

So I watching Sunday Night Football last night and saw the ad for American Gladiators.

http://www.nbc.com/American_Gladiators/index.shtml

They're bringing it back! I feel like a loser, but I can't wait to watch office workers compete against Roided out freaks again!

:popcorn:

[JP]

Why? Why? Why? :mrgreen:

[Jaxx]

Nice! I love that show.

[Iceaxe]

Why? Why? Why? :mrgreen:

Actually my biggest guess as to why they are bringing it back is because you don't need writers to produce it. I expect to see a bunch of this type of crap to hit the air waves if the writers strike lasts very long.

Too funny. I played high school football, and went to college with "Laser".

And, uhh, you wouldn't be callin' him any names to his face...

Ha ha.

No one ever went broke by underestimating the standards of the American TV audience.

No one ever went broke by underestimating the standards of the American TV audience.Ain't that the truth (sadly)

Ya know, that was one of my "million dollar ideas" a couple of weeks ago. :frustrated: I love that show though. Happy it's coming back. :2thumbs: :five:

I used to like the event where they would stand on top of something tall and smack each other with the padded base ball bats (fuessell sticks?). Some of the contestants took a real beating in that event.

I used to watch that show! Very cool! :five:

[RugerShooter]

I can't wait I also loved the show :2thumbs:

My favorite was the rings. Once the gladiators got wrapped around them, they could give quite a jerk....

Dont forget about the Assault!!!

[accadacca]

It was pretty good. That friggin' girl got taken out in the first round. LAME! Roided up female gladiator got her. Then that other male gladiator stepped into both challengers platforms during the joust. :chairshot: It was fun to watch, should get better. :popcorn:

[Shan]

I watched it! I used to watch it when I was in HS too. Than Army chick was so agro!

Mayhem scares me.

I wonder what kind of jobs all these gladiators had before the show. Former wrestlers?

I'm thinking most of them used to work for BALCO.
