00:00American Gladiators!

00:04I loved watching American Gladiators. It was always on Saturday nights.

00:08They have these great, big, muscly dudes beating up on little bitty people who just had a couple of muscles.

00:14That's what it was really all about.

00:16The players' names alone were great.

00:18Names like The Exfoliator, Zap, Ice, Blaze.

00:22Bruce Willis actually named each of his kids after one of the Gladiators.

00:27The women Gladiators were definitely not hot.

00:30Too much muscle for me.

00:33I mean, I raced against some really big girls, but not that big.

00:37You wondered if some of the female Gladiators maybe previously were men?

00:42Well, I didn't think it was possible, but a contender finally broke the ice.

00:46Yes, they did. They broke the ice this time.

00:48They were hot.

00:49You're like, you know, a big, beefy woman who could snap your neck off with a twist of their legs

00:54when you're down there trying to please them because they force you to.

00:57Got those legs wrapped around her and time to hang tough for Gina Kelly.

01:04They would get in a giant hamster wheel and push it around.

01:08When they hit the button, the little smoke came up in their face.

01:12They would have tennis balls shot at them by a Gladiator, which doesn't require any strength at all.

01:19I guess it's appropriate with a name like Turbo that you're shooting a high-powered weapon here.

01:25Everything's high-powered. My guns are always high-powered.

01:32You guys at home think this is easy? It's not easy.

01:35American Gladiators just always lost something for me because it was never to the death.

01:38We will, we will rock you!

01:43Duh!
