Opinions on the new American Gladiators?
 

I love it.

I find Crush to be incredibly attractive. Rawrrr! I'd like to wrestle with her any day.

But I am a little disappointed with the Eliminator. The rolling log obstacle? Doesn't make too much sense to me. Wouldn't it be faster to just jump over it and go? Same thing with the hand bike thing. I would just jump down and climb up the other side.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the classic show penalize the player 5 seconds for falling off an obstacle? I think they should implement that rule here.

I also think that they should put the uphill treadmill closer to the beginning. Everybody is dead by the time they get to it and it ends up being who sucks less at the treadmill that wins.

Any thoughts?

I agree 100% with everything previously stated.

I agree on the penalties for falling off the obstacles in the Eliminator...It always would seem faster to me if you just skipped the hand bike and fell right down..

I kind of like the moving treadmill at the end though. They used to put it at the beginning and it wasn't much of an obstacle. Now it's a true test of stamina.

My only MAJOR complaint is where the hell is ATLASPHERE?! Remember the one where they rolled around like hamsters and hit the switches? Bring that back and drop the swinging pendulum game and I'll be pleased.

I was surprised this took so long.

But I am loving the show.

And I agree with Crush she is delicious.

The show is awesome.

And love the final stretch where everyone fails on the treadmill.

The lake of fire is a bit useless as is the rolling obstacle.

Some of the events such as running across a bridge is kind of lame.

And did you see Hellga fly?

I didn't catch tonights episode but I caught all of last weeks. I have to say it is amusing. Some of the Gladiators actually looking insane, such as Wolf

Hahaha, yeah that was good. The look on her face was priceless.

And yes, the hampsterball challenge would be great to have back.

But BaB, swimming under water that long can take a bit out of you, not to mention the extra weight when you climb up the cargo net.
