American Gladiators

[shosh]

Anyone else remembers this show? I used to watch it when I was younger and it kicked so much ass. Just the other day my wife and I watched an episode on ESPN Classic and were talking how cool it was.
Well... It looks like NBC is bringing it back with the Hulk hosting it.

Re: American Gladiators

haha I too recently saw a classic episode on espn. I loved the show, always rooted for the buffed up guests... loved it when they beat Turbo or any of the others!

Re: American Gladiators

Hulk Hogan is going to host a new version of American Gladiator. It probably won't match the coolfactor of the old skool gladiator

Re: American Gladiators

This is no joke..When my brother and I used to teach karate, we had "Ice" from American Gladiators come in to hang out with the kids that went to the karate school. This one kid was manic depressive and he was talking to her and I stood by listening and he was saying how he wanted to kill himself. She said, "Why don't you do it and end it all." I shit you not.
