Subject: The Return of American Gladiators

Written By: whistledog on 11/30/07 at 12:27 am

Remember American Gladiators?  It's been revived by NBC ...

I loved the original 'American Gladiators' alot so I can hardly wait for this one.  They have a few new events, and some old favourites, such as the great 'Assult' (the one with the the tennis ball guns) which is now called 'Danger Zone'

That was such an awesome show. I hope we get in here in the land of Oz on cable.

Will "Another One Bites The Dust" still be a part of the new American Gladiators?

Maybe I'll give the revival a chance, but it probably won't be like the original. Is it true Hulk Hogan will be hosting this show?

Apparently so yes.  He will do a good job, but it won't be the same without Mike Adamle

American Gladiators I - no blood
Survivor - no death
American Gladiators 2007 - still nothing

These shows are all riffing off The Running Man, and all have failed.

I want my...
I want my...
I want my Smash TV.

I'd buy that for a dollar... but not even FOX has dared offer us what we truly want from reality TV.  Every year, it gets closer, but it never happens.

I want to build an Assault course in the back yard someday.

I also want an Atlasphere.
