The Zohan

I was thinking that i am suffering from GOMS - Grumpy Old Man Syndrome then i remembered back to me yoof and that i found Gladiators on ITV a pile of kack back then.

These so called Gladiators hyping up the pain and suffering they will inflict on the contestants and then beating them up with giant Q-tips whilst suspended over soft foam - hardly gladiatorial the most likely to get broken is the odd fingernail!

The new series has a few changes - from the adverts i have seen - now the foam has been taken away and now to make it even tougher it is over a nice warm swimming pool - how that must really hurt when you fall or get clobbered by a foam covered stick.


Is it really entertaining?

Does anybody watch this and really enjoy it?

Am i missing some point???

No, you're not missing any point at all.

I suffer from the same condition - wife now constantly reminds me by saying "You're turning into your father"

I used to like the original gladiators I have to say, but can't stand the new one - watched it twice I think.
I can't stand the how shall I say "coloured" guy who just shouts "My Powa" (read:My Power to those of us that speak Engligh"

They don't have half of the old games - I assume this can be contributed to the H&S Danger brigade.

Really?

What about the fat one with the thunder thighs - can't remember the name

I thought that the original women gladiators were much more attractive than the new
