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.

    Conda is brillant, she got 2 contestants to quit. Talk about stupid guys, maybe she promised them money if they quit.

    By Missduff, Apr 09, 2012
    I started watching and was getting inspired until Kim & Conda acted so disgusting showing their pety, gossiping, jr. high behavior! Not to mention racism and just down right meaness.
    So sick and tired of them whining about being single mom's...........hey who cares!!!!!!!!! They should be sent home for causing the drama and the show to lose ratings!

  • I thought this show was about inspiration, not negativity.

    By Brooke85, Mar 14, 2012
    I started watching this show last year and really enjoyed it, but this season has become to negative for me to handle. I guess reality shows believe drama get viewers, but this year me and my family stopped watching this show. We do not need negativity like that. We started watching the show for inspiration now we are stopping because the drama has gone to far. My hope is that next season they can only let people on who are positive and ready for change and will not bring drama.... then maybe we will start watching again.moreless

  • This season sucks!

    By DeniseMeridit, Mar 10, 2012
    I watched Biggest Loser for the first time last season and really liked it. It was entertaining and inspiring. This season has been awful. With a few exceptions (most of whom have already been eliminated), the contestants have been racist, whiny, immature, and, in a season of "no excuses," has been full of them. I think the trainers have been amazingly patient with this bunch of "losers."
