    Has anyone else been watching the new American Gladiators? I have watched all 3 episodes since the premier on Sunday and I love it! It is so mindless, but I can't stop watching! You have Hulk Hogan and Muhammad Ali's Daughter hosting and the actual referee from the movie 'Dodgeball.' There is a lot more talk than necessary but gotta love the violence! Some of the new Gladiators are goofy, but lord how I missed guns that shoot tennis balls at 100 mph!

    I think I will be playing American Gladiators: The Drinking Game Mondays from now on! :ddirty:

    Yes! I thought it was the referee from Dodgeball! Do you know this for a fact, because I really want to know.

    Oh and yes I've been watching it. I'm curious, what's your take on the eliminator? I'm trying to figure out if it is just that much harder, or if the contestants are just pussies now. Because some of them can barely finish it.

  5. Linda Hogan (Bolea?) is an idiot.

    The show is freaking awesome! Both me and my wife wish we could compete - that would be a blast.

    As far as the final elimination, I think that people are trying too hard during the swimming section and swimming wipes most people out.

    Its too damn slow. The only way I can watch it is recording it and then fast forwarding through the b.s. talk stuff.

    Other than that, its pretty much the same show as before and I liked it.

    According to Wikipedia it is the ref from Dodgeball. I never really know how reliable Wikipedia is though.

    As for the eliminator, I think no individual part of it is crazy hard (except for the hand bike :eek:hnoes:) But I think the order they put the elements in is tough. The inclined conver-belt thing at the end seems way harder than it looks...


    I forgot how amazing the original show was too! Apparently it is still on ESPN classic! Here is a great clip of Malibu:

    I've been enjoying that show too. Hulk is still a damn house!

    Can you believe it has been 20 years since the original show!?
