American Gladiators!

Augh, so last night my roommate forced me to watch American Gladiators off their web site... I thought it was some sort of wrestling thing, and basically had to be held down kicking and screaming.

But as soon as I actually started WATCHING... oh my god. Best stuff ever.

Anyone else here watch? It's amazing trashy television. I'm hooked. x_O Also Jet's hot. Girlcrush time.

Haha... awesome. It's not actually that different... the new one's kinda souped up a bit, more flashy and all, but it's still really cool. All about the contestants, it's fun to watch.

Yeah, that would bug me a lot, the picking fights thing... I like the U.S. version because the gladiators are pretty business-like -- they'll talk trash hilariously when prompted, but sometimes you can hear clips from their mics where they're congratulating the contestants or telling them they did well. I like seeing the gladiators as real people too, in addition to these superhuman, larger-than-life characters.
