      @Samuel Cleife So everybody means the entire population of London? No, what you mean is that "some" people you were around had fights. You can say that about every year/decade and every city. It's meaningless statement.

      @Adam_Outdoors 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @Samuel Cleife No I live in a town and there is as much fighting/arguing now as there was in the 90's from my perspective. It's just subjective. To state the 90's were full of violence that implies that there is less violence now which is utter nonsense. Also to try and claim all the young people are less violent because of social media is also utterly absurd. You're making silly claims that have zero merit.

      There's no reason whatsoever why they shouldn't find the best TV shows from a past era, long before they were born, to be "good"
      Because we were all once children with nothing in our brains!
      It's an accident of when we were born that determines our culture - or does it? Not for me it didn't - I discovered jazz as a teenager, a good 40 years after it was "fashionable". I just liked the sound of the music - that could have been the same for ANY child at ANY point in history.

The likes of deal or no deal, perfect example ... 90 second game, squeezed to 1hr. No only the piano shite, X factor single handedly hand picking people to humiliate on ‘live’ tv because they deemed it to be ok to laugh at people’s learning difficulties and or straight up humiliation at the fact their mum and dad lied to them their whole life telling them they’re the best singer in the world. So Simon decided to let them go through about 5 auditions prior to standing on the main stage to then crush their entire life live on tv. That’s not reality tv - that’s just fucked up mate. In school that’s called bullying ... sadistic bullying. Jeremy Kyle ? Do I even need to explain? How long if not already will it take for an xfactor or Britain’s got talent contestant to commit suicide? Because of the level of humiliation Simon allowed to commence. Oh, just let me double check the camera is on me before I crush your dreams .... it’s disgusting 🤮

So, either you too follow suit, remove your tv licence - if you’re Uk, you simply advise the bbc (British pedo corp) you no longer wish to watch bbc content not will you use the iplayer. Don’t do so and they come knocking .. other than that so long as you use a paid subscription service eg Netflix or similar you choose what you watch when you watch. Our parents feed us from baby to near adulthood.. the tv does similar. You choose what you want when you want. Leave the simple tv to the simple minds.

      The SKY version took itself waaaaaaaay too seriously, there was no sense of fun (or sportsmanship from the gladiators, whereas the 90s glads were always very gracious to the contenders). The revival basically played like it was made by a bunch of TV execs (or Apprentice contestants!), who had never actually grown up with the show, sitting around a table umming and ahhing over what the focus groups thought would work...

    You know what was good about 90s shows like this? The shows were presented in a serious manner, with tiny bits of humour sprinkled in. This gave the shows competitive intensity, like what the contestants were playing for really mattered, and the presenters stuck to the job of presenting, rather than trying to be comedians. For some reason, this 'serious' manner of presentation disappeared in the 2000s and was replaced with TV presenters who are always trying to say funny things or excessive use of sarcasm, and acting like the whole thing is a big joke. That, in my opinion is why all these gameshow reboots fail, because they fail to recreate the natural human element of competitiveness, and have instead replaced it with excessive humour that is better suited to jokey type topical news quizes like 8 out of 10 cats, or Mock the Week etc. I think the producers of these modern gameshows think that 'entertainment' soley means "make them laugh", whereas actually, entertainment can be a whole range of things.

    I remember when the 1994 series was repeated in 1995, there was a voice over during the closing credits saying "That was a repeat of 1994 and Shadow is no longer a gladiator." Due to Shadow being fired from the show for drug abuse.

      Yes and no. These days so many women are pumped crossfitters and seem to go to the gym. However this was back in the day when the gym was generally attatched to the local swimming pool cum sports centre of which there may only be one per small town, there was not a 24hr cheapo pure gym in every high street so people had to be more motivated and dedicated to go. Also who remembers the high streets pre costas, greggs subways and stupid overpriced yankee ice cream shops. Awoooogaaaaa.
