positive · AI labelView post →34 years ago in September 1992, “Bart vs. the Juggernauts” was released for Nintendo Game Boy. The plot stars Bart from The Simpsons in a game show based on American Gladiators, in which he has to compete in challenges to earn money. #TheSimpsons

There's a "Everything is $2.99" store right next to it and my brother snagged these for me after getting a tip from the For the Love of Theme Parks channel! CC @dinosaurdracula.bsky.social

neutral · AI labelView post →The Miz announced he's the new host of Amazon Prime Video's "American Gladiators" reboot by MGM. A childhood fan who watched with his dad, he's "beyond excited" and promises an incredible show that honors the original while bringing fresh energy. He declared it's "BACK, and bigger & bolder!"
neutral · AI labelView post →But this is what we’ve always wanted as a fundamentalist Christian nation: some hardcore eye-for-an-eye shit you can take the kids to. Put it on TV. The line between entertainment and real death is long gone. “Here. Here's American Gladiators. Watch this, shut up. Go back to bed, America. Here is American Gladiators. Here is 56 channels of it.”
neutral · AI labelView post →In today’s chronicles of Mike is old. I am watching the new American Gladiators on Prime with the kids (it’s terrible fwiw) and all the contestants keep saying they were fans of the show as a kid…. And they mean the 2008 version.

neutral · AI labelView post →This is all a very convoluted system. What we should do is make it much more simple. Take Harris, and trump. Put them in a big venue, like a football stadium, and then fill the ground level with axes and swords, and shields, and maces (the swinging spikey ball kind). And just let them go at it until we have a victor. Then, that victor has to solve a series of puzzles. If they can, they win. I would also accept a revival of the 1990s version of the tv show American Gladiators. Mostly…
neutral · AI labelView post →I never understood why they call them "races". Or why it's called "Running for (office name)". I'd LOVE to see trump actually run in a foot race with Harris. can you imagine it? I know she's probably not in THIS good of shape, but I'm imagining trump bending over and dry heaving after 10 seconds, while Harris is doing cartwheels. I've been saying for 30 years that they should replace presidential debates with a special episode of the 1990s version of American Gladiators. OMG! Remember the…

They said "it's behind the counter for customers but we can drink as much as we want," and now I want to see an American Gladiators show that pits Panera employees against Waffle House employees.

neutral · AI labelView post →the gladiators from AMERICAN GLADIATORS were scab football players who played during the NFL strike and the show was produced because of the 1989 writer’s strike you learn a lot when you watch two different documentary series about AG in one week

neutral · AI labelView post →My parents watched a LOT of American Gladiators. Even to this day, if I ever hear that theme song, I associate with weekends from when I was 14 years old. Also, I’m surprised Trump hasn’t announced this to be his all-time favorite TV show and signed an EO forcing it back onto the air.
neutral · AI labelView post →I was going through my Notes app, and I saw I had written this down as an AU idea: “Stede & Ed compete against each other in a show like American Gladiators, or an adult reboot of Legends of the Hidden Temple.” Imagine Ed seeing Stede in either of these…. Which leads to smut.

neutral · AI labelView post →Perhaps one of the few instances where a UK remake of a US show has outdone it in pizazz. (I still love the low-rent early seasons of American Gladiators - with extra ranks of people painted on the walls to make the audience look bigger, and contestants having to dodge medicine balls on strings.)

neutral · AI labelView post →Decided to watch a documentary about American Gladiators while I work. The more I look back on this show, the more I think they were one ICOPRO ad away from fully merging with the WWF.

positive · AI labelView post →Biggest takeaway from #MusclesAndMayhem is that management is nothing without labor. Seriously. Goldwyn fired the 4 original American Gladiators for trying to negotiate, and the show went from sensation to flop in one season. Doc is also surprisingly wholesome. Nitro 4 life.

neutral · AI labelView post →However, that was changed to base the pin on the American Gladiators television show. When THAT fell through, Gottlieb gave the game a generic futuristic Gladiators theme.

Like, if you’re born a man then you have the choices of becoming a girl or competing in a sort of American Gladiators but the losers die tv show and if you win you can be enby.
neutral · AI labelView post →i've decided to do another rewatch of both American Gladiators (the OG series) and International Gladiators. why? well? the OG show was my fave as a kid, and i'm also a huge Mike Adamle fan as well! and Mike's not been doing great lately, and i wanna see him in better times.
positive · AI labelView post →y'know what? because the majority of my old fave childhood show American Gladiators is on Youtube, i'm gonna do another re-watch not the complete series i'm afraid, the first half of season 1 is on DVD, and the 2nd half of season 1 is on Pluto TV (i think?)... (1/2)
positive · AI labelView post →Only just occurred to me how weird it is that "American Gladiators" was the original show and both the UK and Australian spin-offs were just "Gladiators". It's like if Iron Chef America was somehow the original. That's not how naming conventions work
neutral · AI labelView post →[AMERICAN GLADIATORS was a competition show that ran from 1989-1996, wherein competitors competed in physical challenges against extremely buff athletes who represented the show itself: the titular gladiators. In this joke, our speaker has presumably been in a ball pit for at least 30 years. - ed.]
