"Why, I'd be happy for you too kick my ***!"

 

Used to watch the old show and was looking forward to the new version.

I got bored and turned it off after about 1/2 hour. Crush is good looking, but the female gladiators need to be hotter for this show to work. And the dude gladiators need to have more than one dimension to their characters (acting like total psychos can only carry a show so far).

Hulk and Layla Ali were OK. IMO, there is lots of room for improvement from the hosts.

Here is the original cast from '89:

 

I'd let CRUSH kick my **** anyday!...........

 

I don't know if anyone did better tonight but with obstacles like the hand bike in the eliminator I couldn't believe how much they were struggling. I remember watching the original show and they zipped through that thing. It all seemed a little staged to me though.

 

I don't know about y'all, but the blonde in the middle of the front row looks like he's either "dressing right" or is packin' a HUGE camel...and look at the size of those thighs!

 

much better show last night I thought...Still a little too quick on the action.

 

 

She was on a Kickboxing tournament show Fight Girls. She went to Tailand and beat one of their best Kickboxers! She kicks ***.

 

Finally got around to watching it all. There's almost exactly 30 seconds of crap between events...unless you count commercials. Works out well for the 30 second skip button on my RTV. It's entertaining though.

Is it just me or did the eliminator seem to be much more difficult this time around?

 

The incline treadmill needs to be back at the start without a rope.

 

Just too many commercials
