Anyone else unreasonably hyped for new Gladiators?
Anyone else unreasonably hyped for new Gladiators?
I feel like most Saturday TV from my childhood wouldn't hold up, but in my mind at least Gladiators was the exception! Really hope they don't ruin it.
(17:50, BBC1 for the unaware)
So what you're saying is that you're...
READY!
Idk how whoever they've got shouting that in the new one is ever going to live up to the role.
Update he did not live up to the role
Ha, I enjoyed that. Trashy TV of the most enjoyable kind but good clean fun as well. Although I have to agree with whoever it was on Mastodon said that it looked like every round was designed to cater to a very specific kink or fetish!
The suggestiveness of Hang Tough definitely went over my head as a child!
Wait what, Gladiators is back?!
Do you feel the power!?
I have it on good authority from a total stranger on Mastodon that it's still great, too.
@TeaHands Havent we already reached peak idiot TV?
I must be one of the few who hated it when it was on during the 90's. I know it was insanely popular but I never got why.
It's because you could shout "GLADIATORS! READY!" in your best scottish accent and then wallop your brother with a cushion until either one of you got injured or a parent intervened.
I think.
That's fair.
