I rem. watching BW in its orig. run in '94 on YTV. used 2 air Weekends about supper time. then 1 day over the credits, the announcer says "moving 2 a new time: Mon. morn. @ 9" (while I'm in school! NOOO!). Kept asking mom 2 tape it, but she kept forgetting, I then tried 2 set the VCR b4 I left, but by then it was gone. 1 contestant I rem. was Tony McDowell, a chunkier looking guy & I identified w/ him being a "fat" kid & cried when he lost. if mem. serves, he lost lost to Fernando in the semis.
This Select media production show was shot at Barker Hanger and did have Eric Wiley and Pat Parnell as contestant and Gladiator. It was done after 12 shows however and The 100,000 prize was never awarded. The show was shot in 1995.
You are my hero for today. I've been trying to find out the name of this show for quite a while. I remembered there being a guy named Eric Wylie on it, but Googling his name didn't help me any. I found stuff about other inline skating shows but could not find this one.
FINALLY I came across this. Thanks, now my brain can move on.
I remember a few of the contestants and I went out to the original Lallapalooza together, was a blast, some cool people, if anyone is out there drop me a line.
I may have these recorded somewhere, because my name was in the credits I'll look for them and post them up if I can find them
People would look I me like I was crazy when I asked about this show. What was the event called where they had to throw the ball in the basket. I think they actually had gladiators on their team.
I remember that show, I watched it all the time. I remember every episode from the 1st season... but I never ever saw the 2nd season. Who won the $100,000 anyways?
i remember watching this show on Sportsnet (in canada) mabye around 2000 ish... 1999.. somewhere around there.. anyway.. when i thought of this show again in 2004 i emailed someone from sportsnet asking about if they have the rights and things like that... and the lady told me that they destroyed all the tapes lol
Thank goodness...I've been looking for info on this show for ever. I was begining to think I imagined it. I haven't found a thing at all except for this. Luckily today the name of the show just popped into my head and I tried the title in youtube. Thanks for posting this!!! Now I just have to find the hot Gladiator chic that was in the show.
HE CRASHES THROUGH THE FINISH LINE INTO YOUR LIVING ROOM! hahaha awesome announcer. I remember watching this show when I was a kid. I wish they would show more of these old game shows on tv these days.

I worked on this show, one of my first jobs in the industry.
The guy who designed the sets was John Troxel?
I remember Fernando, Randy, Allison and Astrid (she was a cutie, was a pro skier?)
I also remember Tia Carrer being a host, cuz I used to flirt with her on set;)
It was fun, but low budget, didn't get picked up for final 100k show, so split it among the semi-finalists.

The game was like a rollerblading version of Powerball with a half pipe...
My favorite was the one they called "Full Tilt"
