American Gladiators

American Gladiators is my nod to my idol, Bill Hicks. He commented about how the decline of an empire comes shortly after the Gladiatorial phase. The phase marked by our sources of entertainment becoming more and more bloodthirsty. When we have become so bored, we need to watch people kill themselves to feel good about ourselves.
