So,
I was scared watching American Gladiators this time around. Why? Why was i scared? NOT for the fact that for the FIFTH Monday in a row I’ve tuned in to watch these people make an ass of them self and listen to the commentators say better bullsh*t than the week before, BUT instead i was scared because i was actually paying attention to the competition, developing a favorite, and then…then…cheering for said favorite?
Crazy right…Ah well, sad to say if you missed this weeks episode you missed something KEY to the competitive aspect of the show but i was a bit disappointed by the work on the writers behalf. BUT no fear, they did leave us with a few classics as always and we at AH (Absohilare) never skip a beat on those. In no specific order:
1) As Tony takes a serious hit while trying to make her way through the Gauntlet the commentator spewed, ” Tony was taken to the School of Hard Knocks…and the subject was POWERBALL.” Oh Gimme a Break!
2) “Cracking the back of the chiropractor.” Could’ve done without.
3) “Sound the alarm because we’re never tiring of siren.” Never what?! Tiring? PMO!
4) I’ve just about had enough of this Wolf guy and his constant howling. He also needs to realize he is a man (NOT an actual wolf), and to hint to another man, “I missed my first meal, and i don’t miss two in a row” is not cool, at all.
5) Now truly Hellga does not scare me, at all. She looks A LOT like (Please Click) Little Debbie after consuming too much of her own product. Am I Lying?
6a) One thing that had me rolling was watching the WORST performance in the Eliminator ever. I don’t know if anyone else watching realized this but Kim took SOO LONG to make her way through the eliminator they TURNED THE TRAVELLATOR OFF!! (as in when she got to the Travellator, all she had to do was grab the rope and WALK up!
6b) So now after a less than SHAMEFUL showing she did the “Amp the crowd up” move that people/teams who did/are on the verge of doing something spectacular use. *Waves hands up and down from waist to above head* while saying, ” thanks guys! I tried!”. No FOOL! You can’t use that move with that line! You sucked!
All in all a fair episode and with Semi-Finals next week I’m looking for the writers to say some of the madness of old.

Musin, you like this show…end of story! It’s junk and we all know it but its okay that you like it, we all have strange likes and dislikes. For example, there are people that shouldn’t drink, that love gin and drink capfulls of it anyway! Not to mention people with nothing but bush above their eyes and love it so much they decide to trim it into all kinds of shapes and…letters?
Point is… I really don’t have one.
Thanks for the useless rant Bakedgood.
You are correct. I LIKE this show, who couldn’t? It captivates my interest for the sole purpose of its comedic value. If it wasn’t ridiculously comical I certainly would not watch it as much as I do now.
Fact.
Too bad (and this is too bad) I was watching the joust and I noticed Siren battling one of the contenders and I thought to myself, “When did they change the rules and start letting the women gladiators battle the male contendedrs.”
Too bad that what I thought was a man was actually a 46 year old woman named Tony. Too bad.
Too bad I was signed in under the admin name when I posted the above comment. Too bad.
TOO BAD!
Too bad I was like WHO the feck posts under ridic ?
Too bad that same 46 year old Wo-Man (uncertainty of gender) is giving Mayhem (Old American Gladiator Lesbian) a run for her money.
