This week’s American Gladiator featured two sets of friends – both working for the police department. Melvin had served as a mentor to the younger David on the Chicago force while Abbe and Vicki, from the Denver force, were best friends. We saw a new event – Skytrack. It is a bit [...]

This week was the season premiere of American Gladiators. There were many new things – two new gladiators – Monica (Jet) and Evan (Rocket), the winners from last year, new events, and even the Eliminator got spruced up for the new season.
It was a two-hour event, so there were four competitors. The first [...]

I thought going into the grand finale that it wouldn’t be much of a contest. I thought Alex would put up a bit of a fight against Evan, but I still thought Evan would win. And I was almost certain Monica would win.
The American Gladiator competitors found themselves facing five events: Hang [...]

This week, it was between Alex and Andy and Monica and Venus to fill the final two places in the finale against Evan and Shanay. As I thought, the competition between Andy and Alex was close, but there really wasn’t much Venus could do to compete against Monica.
The guys did Hit and Run, in [...]

In the first of the semi-final matches, we saw Evan, the retail manager go against Anthony, the NYC fireman. Evan had the fastest Eliminator time so far, but Anthony looked like he would be some competition. But, Evan proved to be just too fast. He wasn’t much on the Joust – he [...]

This week, high school teacher Toni, age 46, went up against 28-year-old medical sales rep Kim. For the men, it was Alex, also a high school teacher, against Mark, a chiropractor and former distance runner for the Army. These were the final contestants before the start of the Final 8 tournament.
First up was Powerball, [...]

Tonight, the show featured Evan, a retail manager and Son, a firefighter. For the girls were Christine, a mortgage broker and Jennifer, a lawyer and football player. The guys did pretty well on the Gauntlet, but the girls failed miserably at the Wall, with neither making it up before being pulled down by [...]

This week pitted Sharaud (a schoolteacher) against Adam (a shark fisherman) for the men and Belinda (a bull rider) against Monica (a mom of twins) for the women. Adam was crushed by Mayhem during the first event, the Powerball and he injured his leg. Unable to continue, the self-titled Hebrew Hammer was replaced [...]

Tonight’s episode, appearing in its regular time slot, featured two men (Jeff Chapman and Adonis Lockett) and two women (Christie Philips and Siene Silva) battling each other to make it to the finals.
During the Gauntlet, it appeared that neither man would pick up the full 10 points by going through the wall, but after a [...]

At least that is what the announcer said. Tonight we met the new Gladiators (Titan, Venom, Toa, Crush, Mayhem, Stealth, Justice, Siren, Wolf, Fury, Militia, and Hellga). Personally, Hellga has my vote for best name, but she didn’t appear in many competitions. I used to watch American Gladiators back in the day, [...]
