American Gladiators.

Wow... why does it seem so scripted.

I am extremely disappointed, the participants seem like actors or people that had six shots of acid before coming on. I liked the little asain kid though.

"OMG I AM SUPER PUMPED TO BE HERE... I COULD DO A BACK FLIP. WATCH!" *backflips*




And not even Hulk Hogan makes this show watchable. AND I LOVE TEH HULK.

The only half-decent thing about it is the original idea. Execution of that idea...well, let's just say that saying "not so great" here is a great understatement.

In other words, pathetic.

I predict this show will go the way of the XFL.

I agree. I walked up stairs to see my brother and his little friends sitting at a TV watching some guy swing from ropes. I asked them what it was and they said "American Gladiator, it's awesome!" I laughed my ass off for about 2 minutes, then went back down stairs to continue my Team Fortress game.

I grew up with American Gladiators (the original version). I love the modern version and hope it's on for a while. I think they did a good job capturing what they had over a decade ago. I understand that most of you are too young to think it's cool, but that's okay: it's not really for you anyway. It's for people my age :wink:.
