American Gladiators is an American competition television program that aired weekly in syndication from September 1989 to May 1996.

The show was refereed by Al Kaplon, a former American League umpire, who can also be seen as the referee in Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story. Play-by-play narration was handled by Van Earl Wright.
The second series of Gladiators started in December 2008 with a Legends Special. The series aired on Sky1 and Sky1 HD.

Ian Wright returned as presenter with Caroline Flack, who replaced Kirsty Gallacher. Taking over from original referee John Anderson was boxing referee John Coyle.

Four series of the programme were broadcast, airing from 2 September 1995 to 13 March 1998.
