Anyone else going to be watching it? :D

I think the new Siren is going to be my favorite... especially if she gets dunked in the water tank during the joust :cheer:

Geez, I hated this show the first time around. Hope it's better now. Am I mistaken or is that the same blonde guy Gladiator as the old one?

I've got to watch it.

I watched the first incarnation back in the late 80's when it was run.
And still watch the reruns on ESPN Classic.

I watched it when I was a kid, so yes I'll probably see if it is any good this time around. :D World's Strongest Man replaced it once we got cable & American Gladiators soon faded. Hope it lasts longer this time.

I think it was more trivia than actual sport.

Anyone remember Blaze who would always get called on for breaking rules? (The same one that kept pulling her wedges :lol: )
I wonder what became of all the gladiators. :headscratch:

just watched the first episode tonight... VERY cool and Siren looks even hotter than her promo pics show her as :drool:

I recorded it, but haven't watched it yet.

I loved Lace on the original :lips:

the canned probably scripted, taunts and trash talking was annoying, atleast on the original the most you ever got was a Gladiator saying "you're going down" and that was about it.. no lame howls, or tribal jibberish, or any of that stuff :thumbsdown:

I DO like this new eliminator though, it's the first time I've ever seen people hardly able to cross the finish line B)
I have a bad feeling they'll probably shorten it, or take away something so it's not quite so hard down the road, but I hope they don't because it's nice to have the the whole thing really decided by the eliminator

BX - January 8, 2008 06:41 AM (GMT)
that's true, this time around it is truely not over until after the eliminator, it's still anyones game B)
