Show Summary

  • Returning Series
The biggest winner is "The Biggest Loser" in this compelling new weight-loss reality drama in which two celebrity fitness trainers join with top health experts to help overweight contestants transform their bodies, health and ultimately, their lives. Alison Sweeney ("Days of Our Lives") hosts the unscripted, two-hour series in which two competing teams follow comprehensive diet and exercise plans to undergo radical physical makeovers. Unique physical challenges, surprising alliances and irresistible temptations make the competition even tougher for the contestants, who ultimately have to decide which player gets eliminated each week. In the end, "The Biggest Loser" becomes the biggest winner, walking away with a healthier body - and $250,000. "The Biggest Loser" is a production of NBC Universal Television Studio, Reveille, 25/7 Productions and 3 Ball Productions. Ben Silverman (NBC's "The Restaurant," "The Office (US)"), David Broome ("Jingle Ball Rock"), J.D. Roth ("NBC's "For Love or Money," "Endurance"), John Foy ("For Love or Money," "Endurance") and Todd A. Nelson ("For Love or Money," "Endurance") are the executive producers.''''After the first Biggest Loser was crowned in January of 2005, a second Biggest Loser began in September, pitting the men versus the women in the ultimate chance of losing weight and feeling good about yourself. With the success of the second season, a special edition version of six episodes started in January 2006, with a third season starting in March 2006.

  • Too much drama

    "Superb"
    By CharlotteTari, 3 hours ago Report Abuse
    I have watched my last Bggest Loser program. I found the show tonight very disappointing. Poor Adrian, he did not stand a chance with those witches. That Condo and Kim, should be disqualified and sent home on their behavior alone. My heart broke for Adrian, and you know exactly if the red team is up for elimination next week that he will be going home. He did nothing wrong but lose 34 pounds and made it back to the ranch only to be ridiculed the entire time. I personally would not want to be a contestant on your program for what you go through with the other contestants. How can you lose weight when you are criticized to the point that you cannot even give it your best. Too much drama and no one has any control. Weight loss is suppose to be the goal!!moreless

    I was so disappointed with the show on 1/31/2012. I had it on my DVR and just watched this evening. Could not believe how Adrian was treated form the time he and his sister walked in the room. Conda and Kim never gave hime a chance. Why? This is not the first time that people have went home and came back to the show. But this is the first time I have seen the people treated so badly. This show was very painful to watch. He was trying so hard to fit in. Red Team did you know this is America? Hey people don't need to shut up and listen. Hello, we have FREE SPEECH in the USA.moreless

    I am really disappointed this year with the attitude of the contestants and their weight loss is showing for it. I agree that Conda and Kim need to go. And so does Dolvette, they really need to beg for Jillian to come back, its just not the same without her. All Dolvette cares about is beating Bob. Not liking the new season at all.

    This Is a show about losing weight not friends Im so much of a unfair advantage for him to even progress through next week. If anyone should go home it should be Conda she's been there for 4 weeks in only lost 3 pounds each week. But this is my last time watching the show It was so disgraceful to season women act like that.

  • The Biggest Looser is forgetting something!

    The only thing I find wrong with the show is that fat people have poor circulation, and get back pain really bad. A simple wheat bag helps to get this problem solved. The show seems to think that all fat people are just over weight and no health issues. The 16 people on this show are amazing, very hard to get moving, plenty of motivation for their teams, but don't have any movement problems. If they can't sell it they don't promote it. A simple wheat bag is very cheap, lets get the horse ready before they tow boats on Sydney Harbour. Reality please, the whole picture would be good, I am at least 40 kg over weight and get very poor support with my problem.moreless
