Just a little rant I feel I ... | Matt Roush | 7/14/2008
Question: Just a little rant I feel I need to share. Though I know it has gone down in ratings, American Gladiators is not a bad show. I certainly understand people putting down many of the crazy reality shows and game shows you don't even need a brain or be physically active to play. But American Gladiators is different: There's competition, and it shows you how in shape some of these people of all different ages are. This show is cheesy, but it's good, clean fun, especially for the kids. There's such a variety of contestants — like the man with the prosthetic leg, that was unbelievable! You were rooting for him to make it to the end, and it felt good. It's featured regular people, best friends, married people, a deaf man and now, people who have lost weight. It can be very inspiring. Watching them do some of these challenges is fun and incredible. I could never do any of them, I'm sure. Don't get me wrong: I enjoy shows like Lost, 24, Burn Notice and The Closer, but given all the ... read more
Javelin Star Throws Caution to the Wind on American Gladiators | TVGuide.com Sports Report | 6/16/2008
While most Olympic hopefuls spent the last few months devoutly focused on training for Beijing, Breaux Greer lived up to his rebellious reputation with a unique form of cross training. The 31-year-old javelin star did a stint on America Gladiators, beginning tonight and running throughout the remainder of the season (Mondays, 8 pm/ET, NBC).Greer is an eight-time national champion in the javelin and won the bronze medal at last year's world championships, making him a serious threat to reach the podium at the Olympics in August. So why risk injury on something as goofy as Gladiators? “The quote that I live my life is, ‘I was not here to be a background character in someone else’s movie,’” he says. A fan of the original series, the high-strung Greer was eager to jump into events like the Pyramid and Powerball. "The best part of all of this to me is I can beat the hell out of anybody and no police will be involved," he jokes. (We think!) "I’m not holding ... read more
MTV Movie Awards Heat Up the Gold Carpet | Today's News: Our Take | 6/2/2008
Against the backdrop of Burbank's deep valley, the 2008 MTV Movie Awards attracted some of the biz's hottest stars, from both the establishment and the rising Hollywood set. Just beyond the gold carpet, a huge cloud of black smoke hovered from the fire at Universal Studios, but the incident didn't stop the crush of celebs, press and fans that filled the arrivals area of the Gibson Amphitheater.Making his way into the event, Best Week Ever's Doug Benson acknowledged the unseemly juxtaposition, joking, "I'm not on fire. It's not hot enough out here as it is. Let's get some soot, difficult breathing conditions. This is perfect!" Fitting the spirit of the awards, Benson sported a '420' tee under his jacket, an oddly prescient choice given Seth Rogen and James Franco's joint-smoking moment during the show. At any given time, the gold carpet was filled with stars, their entourages, Elle Woods wannabes and production assistants, scurrying back and forth. Among some of the passersby was Wil... read more
