Hey Freak!

OK, back in the day, I was a fan of American Gladiators. So, of course, I was a little excited when I saw that they'd be bringing the show back. I couldn't wait to see what changes (improvements) they'd made, along with which games they'd keep. I figured they'd keep Powerball for sure, and maybe Assault.

Anyway, so I watched the premiere, and I have to say, I was totally underwhelmed. Maybe I've grown out of it now. Maybe my standards have gotten higher. Either way, the show kinda bored me. I mean, seriously. I found myself FFWing through most of it, and really, not caring who won. It was then that I decided that American Gladiators would not go in the current rotation of shows I watch.

And then, I read some reviews of the show. People think it's exciting. People love it. I guess it's really popular.

Seriously?

Hm. Maybe I missed something.

So, do you watch American Gladiators? What do you like about it? Come on, I want to be a fan, but someone needs to convince me that it's a good show. Anyone up to the task? Really, what's so great about the show? Anyone?
