AMERICAN GLADIATOR -- what the heck its it? According to wikipedia.com, the show matches amateur athletes against each other and the show's own "gladiators" in contests of strength, agility, and endurance. It is a revival of the original American Gladiators which ran from 1989-1996, with elements of the UK version of the 1990s. An average of 12 million people watched the two-hour premier.[2]The show is refereed by Al Kaplon, a former American League umpire, who can also be seen as the referee in Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story. Play-by-play narration is handled by Van Earl Wright.
According to the press release we were sent by the peeps at Los Angeles Fit Expo -- About "American Gladiators”: Hulk Hogan (“Hogan Knows Best”) and Laila Ali (“Dancing with the Stars”) host "American Gladiators," the iconic competition series, which returns with a fresh modern reinvention for the 21st century. Using splashy twists including special effects, water skills and the latest technology, the classic games will be upgraded with even higher thrills, impact, energy and spectacle!
Valentine's note-- wonder if Hulk Hogan is single or not now...haven't kept up with the latest Hollywood gossip -- but I'll bet a few of the Gladiators are still looking...hmmmm js
