I’m a bit confused by today’s announcement by MGM. How is an American Gladiators cartoon going to work? Will it follow the gladiators as some sort of super heroes, fighting crime? That’s the only thing I can think of that makes some sense. MGM wouldn’t produce a cartoon version of the regular show, would they? That would be pointless.

Along with the new cartoon series, MGM is working on a new website that will spotlight the original series and a special U.S. tour. And in case you didn’t know, the new American Gladiators is currently airing Mondays at 8PM on NBC. It’s done so well that NBC has already ordered a second season.
