Title: American Gladiators, brother!
Post by: AnubisVonMojo on October 04, 2007, 10:00:12 AM
That's right, American Gladiators is coming back with a new coat of paint and it's going to be hosted by none other than Hulk Hogan. All I can say is that I hope they don't f*ck with the theme music, cuz if I hear anything other than that theme when the new show starts, I'm turning it off.

WHAT YA GONNA DO, BROTHER???

The theme song can beat it, if the show is missing that tennis ball launcher, I will be p**sed.

What they REALLY need to do is bring Sasuke (aka Ninja Warrior) to America and make sure it's just as difficult as the Japanese version.  No wimps.  If no one wins then no one wins.

I used to love American Gladiators, and it's good to see Hulk doing something other than wrestling, because at his age, it's useless.  Whoever loses should get the patented Hulk Hogan Leg Drop of Death, though.

A power bomb into the thumbtacks.  I'm telling you, if there isn't at least one thumbtacks match, what's the point at all?

If only they'd get rid of the men competing and just have babes in spandex, then it would be the perfect show.

I don't know if it was the '80s hair or the fact that they were all big enough to beat my ass to a pulp, but I think I might've found one woman on that show attractive... and I think she had bad teeth...

And whoever wins gets to pose like Hogan, with Hogan.

Don't forget the flaming table covered in barbed wire, too.   :teddyr:

Hogan was never that extreme,and at his age do you think he could Powerbomb anyone? i doubt it. maybe the loser has to go driving with Nick Hogan.

I was thinking more of the female contestants  :teddyr:  Some of them were pretty sweet looking.

As I recall, one of the female Gladiators was in Playboy...and remarkably soft looking.   :teddyr:

Great show (1989-1997). To bad it was originally my idea in 1985 while working on a patents for related equipment.

AG was a good show.  I used to play their video game for the old NES system.

Hogan was never that extreme,and at his age do you think he could Powerbomb anyone? i doubt it. maybe the loser has to go driving with Nick Hogan.
Shoot, at his condition, he's lucky he can do that patented "Get punched three times, stand up, point a finger, and yell "YOU!" thing he does, let alone his leg drop.

I used to love that show back in the day; I'm looking forward to the comeback.

And I think several of the lady Gladiators were pretty hot, actually.

You know what we need less of is?  American Gladiators.

Why American producers haven't gotten hip to adapting Japan's Sasuke to the American market is a f**king mystery to me.  Sure, you can see it on G4 under the title Ninja Warrior but if some network were to mimic the formula entirely, we would have a phenomenon bigger than American Idol.

The Sasuke course in any incarnation would make short work of Laser, Flame or whichever Gladiator you can think of.
