Did anybody else catch the 2-hour premiere last night? If not, its on again tonight on its usual Monday night (8 CST/9 EST) time slot. It picks up right where the original, kick ass, series left off. New gladiators; a few new events mixed in with old favorites like power ball, joust, the wall, the gauntlet, assault, and even a new style eliminator.

Oh...and not to mention that one of the new gladiators, "Crush", is very easy for the guys to look at!

I could had done without the emotional wanna be motivating speeches.

Hulk Hogan saying brother 5 times in a sentance doesn't help things much either.

I would had rather watched the version from 20 years ago. TV was so much better 20 years ago.

Thats pretty kick ass! I enjoyed watching "Big Country" or whatever they freaking nicknamed him.

To anybody who has seen both episodes; is it me or is that "travelator" really in a horrible place in the new series? Practically everybody has had a bitch of a time getting up that sucker, being at the very end. The original series had that sucker in the beginning of the Eliminator.

probably a good move, it changes an advantage if you're too weak!

And as I recall most people just ran straight up it.
I don't remember if the rope was tied in the same spot or not. Thats whats screwing people up becuse their bending down further and further as they get closer to the top.

Also I could forsee some lawsuits with that ring of fire deal you have to swim over. Did you see that lady crack her head open swiming into that metal bar? OSHA needs to come in and put some padding on that thing.

by **Lando** » 1/9/2008, 10:45 am

yeah that was crazy when she was bleeding down her face. good times.

well... not for her.

So....this past Monday night I totally thought the guy who won the Eliminator didn't have a chance. :lol:

liability waivers would cover them for that and would also be used extensively to cover for that stuff

by **Neil** » 1/20/2008, 7:21 pm

You know damn well there are waivers involved in it. There has to be!

by **Lando** » 1/21/2008, 2:00 am

There is in anything tv/film related. you need to sign releases just to have your face shown on tv, or if you don't they have to blur you out!
