Title: American Gladiators cancelled?
Post by: Natural_O on September 22, 2008, 06:37:40 PM
I just read on Ironage that Bill Grant heard the American Gladiators show was canceled due to low ratings. Has anyone else heard anything about this?

It was never intended to last, just fill a void during the writers' strike.

Exactly.  I was laughing when people were talking about their "multi-year contracts".   Good thing a few of them left the IFBB to pursue their long and successful "gladitorial careers", huh?  ;D
Who left the IFBB?  Don't worry Goat, they're still pro's, they'll be ok.  ;)

Who? Who?  I don't watch that show.  Hulk Hogan ruined it for me.  I can't stand his undying need for attention on his daughter's show (and even his own series).  It's too creepy.  Just turned me off from watching AG.

They've been trying to polish that turd since the late 80s.  The original show had carboard cutouts of people in the audience because they couldn't get enough real people to come and watch.  It was hilarious.

Wait till the Hulk's Celebrity Wrestling starts.  That might run a show or two.

The IFBB pros are the FEMALE Gladiators (i.e. Beth "Venom" Horn, Valerie "Siren" Waugamam, and Tanji "Stealth" Johnson).

If they had hot FBB's like the old one used to, instead of figure girls, it would've had great ratings.  An example of a girl that would've been a great fit for the show:

Left the IFBB?  Another moronic statement by our resident idiot Goatballs.
