1!!The 2008-09 version:
2* TearJerker: Like the original series, one episode had a contestant get seriously injured in one of the events, but they insisted on playing through. However when they made it to the Eliminator, the contestant was not able to run it, choosing to just watch on from the starting point. Their family, especcialy their child, were in tears.
3* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: Getting John Anderson and the Legends back may have helped Series 1, but then getting rid of John, keeping Wolf on the sidelines, and getting rid of Kirsty Gallacher obviously didn't help. Considering the series only had lukewarm ratings and reception and seemed cheesier than the original, it's no wonder it was cancelled.
4** There was also the fact that most of the male Gladiators had this damn attitude which felt like all of them were trying to be Wolf.
