God loves American Gladiators
Last night I was transported back to a magical time, a time where I sat as an 11 year old at the lunch table with my parents at noon on Saturday and watched roid-raging men take on people JUST LIKE MY DAD, everyday, ordinary people, in amazing feats of strength and endurance. I loved every second of it. I could almost smell the bacon cooking on the stove behind me as I watched last night. Now, this was not your late 80's to mid 90's American Gladiator. The original was precious, in a "we have a $10,000 budget we have to hit to get the dam show on tape" kind of way. This present day version had smoke, and fire, and slick graphics, and The Hulkster. Not the same thing. My suggestions?Bring back Mike Adamle...
and Todd Christensen, or Larry Csonka.
Where's Gemini, or Nitro? Let's face it, Siren taught me what a woman was (kind of).

I digress. The show was still cheeky and ridiculous, and R and I both got very excited when they announced Assault was back! What I wouldn't give to hurl bean bags or arrows at that target while tennis balls hurled at me at 100 miles an hour. Bliss.
So why DOES God LOVE American Gladiators, you may find yourself still asking. I will explain. In hour two, once the women's Eliminator had finished (what a test of skill and endurance!), the women's winner is being interviewed by the Hulkster. She leads with...wait for it..."I just want to thank God first and foremost, who saw me through tonight."
Yes, Virginia, God does love American Gladiators, and shepherds those he wants to win 100k and the title of the next American Gladiator to safely finish the Eliminator.
All is well in America tonight.

The memory of AG was so much better than actually watching it. We accidentally watched all of the first hour and 4 minutes of the second. I couldn't handle it and won't be back.
But yes, I would love to play assault on a regular basis. Basically laser tag x 100. top

HAHA. I used to LOVE American Gladiators!! I didn't remember them interviewing the competitors after EVERY SINGLE event. Was it that way in the original? Kev and I were mildly annoyed at it all. But in the Eliminator...the womens times kicked the crap out of the mens! That was SWEET. top
