American Gladiators!

One of my roommates and I watched the premiere of American Gladiators on NBC tonight. I must say, that was the kitchiest 30 minutes of TV I've seen in a long time. It's impossible to explain in writing the amount of cheese that this show exudes. Thanks to the writing strike we have a whole slew of new reality shows that will be just as good as Gladiators.

Anyway, the premise of the American Gladiators is that there are 'star' gladiators who each take turns in taking down two people who are competeing in a number of events. My favorite gladiator was this guy, aptly named, "Wolf," pictured above; every time he was introduced he howled. I haven't laughed at a show like I did tonight in a long, long time.

So sorry I missed it--sure wished I would've TiVo'd it. I freakin' loved American Gladiators in the '80's! Wonder what ever happened to the smokin' hot Nitro? Ha!
