Who Watches Biggest Loser?

[Laura_A]

This is the 1st season since probably the 2nd season that I've watched all the way through. Who else is watching? Who are your favorites?

I love Jackson so much! He's adorable. I also love Danni! Gina is on my last nerve. lol

[Jenn Barrette]

I think Danni is my favorite :)

Jillian is kinda outta control this season though.

[lorigaud]

I hear you about Gina... but tonight I actually was really happy for her. I didn't like Jeff at the beginning, but I'm coming around to him, too. There isn't anyone this season that I just can't stand... I do like Danni the most though, especially since she came from such a disadvantage on the white team at the start. I agree about Jillian, Jenn... she's just a "bit" over the top this season! Oy!

[BrattyMeg]

I like Danni..I didn't at first though she had an attitude problem

Didn't like Jeff either but he's growing on me..can't stand Gina or Alex

Did you know Jeff and Franci are dating now? More hook ups on TBL than Bachelor/Bachelorette lol

[SmallFry73]

ugh! Jillian! She is super b*^()y this season!! I just want to slap her some days. Last night was horrible the way she jumped all over Jackson before the weigh in. I have a feeling she will leave the show again after this season.

I'm watching too! I haven't watched last nights episode yet though...
I dont have any serious favorites yet...maybe Danni, or Jackson (though I dont think either will win)

[NeverendingJen]

I don't love Gina or Alex, but everyone else from the final 6 is pretty good.

I did have to squee a little bit when Alison told them that they made it to my FAVORITE week for next week lol

[Laura_A]

Yeah, Jillian is a bit much, but I do love how much she seems to care and that she makes a point to sit and talk with them and make them kinda face their inner issues. She doesn't have to be so melodramatic though. lol

On a side note...Dolvett is BEAUTIFUL! :wub:

We watch BL - but haven't had the chance to watch last night's episode. I too like Danni. Gina isn't my favorite. There really isn't anyone that I really dislike. As for Jillian - I think a lot of it is editing. And that fact that she hasn't been on for a few seasons so we kind of forgot how she operates. I listen to her weekly podcast - and she has mentioned quite often how this is the hardest season of BL for her. Mainly because of the contestants. It's really interesting to hear her talk about the show - and I guess they have left a lot of the heart-to-heart talks on the editing floor - which stinks because watching those conversations really help people relate to the contestants. Anyways - can't wait to watch last night's episode!

Oh yes. Yes he is. ;)

[k23m]

LOL you ladies can have Dolvett. I will take Bob. :)

[SweetMelissa]

Danni is my favorite this season.

Oh and Bob is totally hot. I Googled him the other day and OMG the pictures that came up. :) Bob's hiding a pretty rocking body under all of those clothes. Why must he wear clothes? lol.

[Laura_A]

LOL you ladies can have Dolvett. I will take Bob. :)

I think Bob is pretty hot...but I HATE HATE HATE his new beard. lol

[lilusmom]

I love the show, but I agree that Jillian is a bit much this year. I think she must have built up so frustration while she was off the show and now she's letting it out!

[NeverendingJen]

see, and Jillian is actually not as bad as in years past. Go back and watch old seasons and you will see what I mean. I've watched since season 1 and while she yells this season, she's also softer and sweeter and more understanding than I have ever seen her

[Sarah8914]

that's what I thought too Jen!

[NeverendingJen]

So glad its just not me. It's the two years of 'soft' female trainers in perspective to Jillian that make her seem horrible, but really, she's a total sweetheart. She knows when to call people on their BS, and when to push them to lose the emotional baggage.

[lilusmom]

Maybe you are right. She does seem to get stuff out. I guess I am just thinking if that tactic would work for me and I don't know that it would. But then, being a person who has had therapy for childhood issues, I know that the kind and caring psychologist angle hasn't really worked either! Maybe I do need the tough love technique.

[SmallFry73]

I was thinking this week, why do the contestants always act surprised when they are told they made it to Makeover Week. How can that be a surprise? Do they not watch the show? It's the same every season!!

That's how I felt about her, too. I love how she really seems to care...like it's not just a job for her!

Agreed! Maybe they just lose track of what week they're in since they've been there for so many? :huh:
