THIS INTERVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

http://www.subversivecrossstitch.com/images/72-6chill.gif

facially!

nah dude you had to see this interview

holy shit, they're letting these guys cut promos now?!

also, am laughing at the standard NBC Olympics-style "getting to know you" bits

it couldn't have had anything on this, right?

"justice has been served .... facially"

I lolled

I wonder how juiced up these guys are

Did you guys see that one shot of the girl with her face covered with blood?

crazy. They should've given it to her for completing with that.

Shit, we've only had two injuries in the first 20 minutes.

are they replaying this?

plz watch asian girl's interview.

They're having a new episode tomorrow night. I'm so there.

it seems... fake to me. nowhere near the original, but still pretty entertainly. mostly for the lulz though.

oh far out, a 2nd hour.

I'm waiting for the first contestant to begin his opening promo with Hulk with "Well ya know, Mean Gene..."

I was kind of excited for this for some reason, and then it started and I remembered why I barely watched the original when it was on.

i enjoyed this. Needs more Crush.

Fuckin' writer strike.

^^^the end of that— starting at abt 2:45— is the interview with the crazy asian woman that i was talking about last night.

the rest of it is pretty hilarious tho too

lol @ swimming under fire

Ok, I'm legitimately enjoying this.

Barrel roll looks like fun.

'fang tough'

'more moves than a bowl of jello'

a lot of contestants getting sonned by the treadmill. it looks so unassuming but it’s “The Great Equalizer”

Bring back Malibu.

^^^^^^^^^^^ yes

lol @ the Hulkster's painfully, obviously fake wig under headband and terrible hosting skillz

p.s. omg the eliminator is ROUGH this go-round!

p.p.s. somehow this show's less fun w/o gratitous mullets everywhere

i dont think the hulkster is wearing a wig! he goes bandana-less alot on his reality show.

I would drop off the barrel roll and the hand bike pretty much as soon as I got on them. There seems like no good reason to stay on those things.

apparently malibu played MOTARO in a mortal kombat movie

otm. surely there should be some penalty for falling off? At least a pain in the balls cargo net to climb up.

I seem to remember that on old-skool gladiators, the men would just fly down the handbike (the women always had trouble).

i liked how that chick pwned the guys on the treadmill thing.

I like when Hulkster calls a contestant "brother" five times in a 25 second interview. I've so missed ASSAULT. Best event!!!!!

also, lolz at contestant saying she wanted to get female gladiator wet for her mum

NBC ordered a second run of its American Gladiators remake and the show’s owner, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, is backing it with a new Web site, live tour and animated series...

"animated series?"

are they all just really bored?

apparently the show is a hit
