My oldest daughter and myself watch every week. Anyone seen it? Kinda fun, kind of throw-back...

Dig this gladiator..."Crush"

Turns out she's a kickboxer with a 12-1-1 record, fights MMA training with Randy Coulture

That is soooooooooo hot!

I stumbled across an archive of the first AG show back in the early 80's (I think)...the gladiators were sooooooooo trendy for the time...bahahahaha, dig it up if you can.

And yes, Crush is hot! It has been tough ignoring her constant advances on me but I love my wife.

I watched the old ones, just because it was before the time of cable, and living in the sticks meant very little to watch on TV.

I read a maxim article on the old bunch, and man, what a trip. drugs, sex, etc. were quite the norm.

I saw one of the new ones a few weeks ago, can't say as I was overly drawn to watch it more, what with spongebob being on =).

Yeah, it's the same challnges as the old, same format, so it's the same thing, the guys are big ol' muscleheads, the girls are hotties...I saw Crush pull a couple moves on somebody and just by what she did I thought she HAD to have some training, so I looked into it and sure enough, LOTS of training...she's the real deal.

"Toa" is the brother of "The Rock", Titan is a pretty boy...a big one, but a pretty boy none the less.

Me and my kid just have fun watching it...good parental bonding with my girl watching AG and ultimate fighting...I'm raising her right!

that's cool.

sheesh, i wouldn't last 5 minutes at that show.

I have absolutely no doubt that every single female on that show would severely whip my butt at any competition.

except maybe getting beat, i'd probably excel at that =).

HA!

I'd give my right nut for five minute grappling with Crush, except she'd prolly smash them both anyway...

Those games may look like fluff a bit but damn, the Gauntlet and the Eliminator would be hella tough...the ring hanging one probably would be too.

I wish I had a profile picture

I don't know but I thought that show has always looked stupid.

But I'm not trying to rain on the parade...maybe just a drizzle.

I watched a couple of the episodes. I thought that that guy Justice was a little over the top. On the Gauntlet, he is suppose to stop when the contender crosses the gray line. But, it just looks as if he just enjoys punishing the contender for the hell of it.
