What Would Crap Look Like If It Took Steroids?
Who hasn't asked that question at some point in his or her life?
Well the answer is it would look like American Gladiators hosted by Hulk Hogan.
I went to the gym to run on a treadmill for the third day in a row, due to yet another cold snap here in Minnesota. In years past I would have just run outside, but I have developed some spots on my face that are frostbite prone, so running in the cold is to be avoided.
So today as i was running the television in front of me was showing American Gladiators. "This should make the next half hour go by fast," I thought to myself. It actually made the half hour feel like an hour. I was stuck watching the freaking NFL Pro Bowl nd a Lakers/Heat basketball game yesterday. Both, I thought were unwatchable. However, I'd take either one of those games over the new American Gladiators.
So far the best shows for treadmill running in my book are Wheel of Fortune and Law and Order. Both require only half your attention but are interesting.

I figured on American Gladiators being kind of kitschy and fun, but almost certainly because I was figuring that it would be exactly like the old American Gladiators. No doubt it is not.
And also, kids, thinking of the old American Gladiators as a good show is one of the many consequences of unrestrained nostalgia.
>Sigh< I miss Nitro.
