Does anyone miss Vulcan, Cheetah, Commando (but he did wear underwear) and friends?

What about the travellator? and how sweet was the international Gladiators travellator? how quick was that?

Who were the other gladiators? What were some of the games? And who else wants to see Mike Whitney back where he belongs refereeing Gladiators?

Some of the games I remember,

the one where they had the sticks and fought with the Gladiator on the ledges, the monkey bars where you had to swing across to the other side, the pyramid where you had to run up it past the gladiator, the ball game where you had to get as many balls into the buckets past the gladiators....

What else was there?
 
Heres the blokes from it, starting with everyone's favourite Vulcan...(who could forget his spat with Wolf at the Ashes)

Anyone else think Commando looks like Jarrad Schofield?

And winner of the worst name award (and a contender for worst haircut)...

This guy actually has a big centre (with a huge painting of himself on the outside of the building) in Menai where he teaches WWE wrestling.

Sad.
 
Ahhh I used to watch this show as a kid. I wouldn't watch it again if it came back on though :p

Some of the other games were gauntlet (had to get from one side to the other in a narrow tube thing), and then the one in the cage where they had to roll over the goal things. Can't remember what that one was called. And the only other one I can remember that hasn't been mentioned already is The Bridge one where you run from one side to the other with the gladiators throwing massive balls at you.

Bring it back now. And after a few years have a heritage round where the ladies with big muscles and big hair go all out.



And give it to Channel 10. Gladiators Adults Only at 1030 on a Monday night.

:thumbsu: :thumbsu:



Or It's a Knockout. Don't mind which one comes on.

can't forget Cheetah trying to root the contestant on the rings challenge.
Cheetah was hot.

I'd give anything to play the monkey bars game with her.

But it was only female v female and male v male, wasn't it?

Now Gladiators, 'adults only' is an idea with Cheetah!

That would be sweet television.
 
I used to like it at the start where they did the big spiel about Gladiators in ancient Rome or whatever, then the camera would pan over to Mount Olympus and Taipan would be playing electric guitar on it!

They don't make TV like that anymore, probably for good reason.

Taipan playing the electric guitar. Does it get any better than that?

the fact it was on mount olympus was what tops it off.
 
I still have the 1st series grand final, 1st & 2nd "Ashes" series, series 2 & 3 + International Gladiators on tape :thumbsu: :D Also have other Gladiators merchandise, such as the calendar and other things.

Delta was easily my favorite Gladiator, damn she was fine :P I'd have loved to have attempted to face off with her in Pyramid, only to let her throw me around like a rag doll (hey if i got to roll around with her it would be worth it).

Foxtel should air it!!
 
Heh. I can't believe someone with web designing ability like that has gone to the trouble of making that website :p
