Gladiators

[Basher]

You cannot deny that the show isn't being hyped up for its' return tomorrow evening.

I have to say the original show was good entertainment originally and was lapped up by my (then) very young kids. Some of the original muscle bound dudes have gone on to do quite well for themselves.

I just feel that the new show will be more "Americanised" with glamourous birds and steroid fuelled meatheads.

Not planning on watching it but imagine my youngest will tune in.

completely agree but i cant resist.

Got a mate who is on the production team, this time the gladiators are more like athletes not steroid meat heads. However, this time its all staged, trust me it is not going to be anywhere near as good as the last one.

And no Lightening!

like the original wasn't like this?

the original concept for gladiators was from the us. i just think that aspect of it adds to the overall appeal. it's a real 'david and goliath' situation which has the viewer wanting the man on the street to kick proverbial ass.

As a kid I thought Lightening was fit, but watching the repeats last year on Channel 20 Freeview, she wasn't that nice really.
Scorpio was always my favourite, real dirty looking bird and Jet ofcourse too. Panther as well - what a backside she had - I like the older woman. Always wanted to play hang tough with those three

yes, the thought of being stuck between the legs of jet whilst playing hang tough does seem rather appealing.
