tricia Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 We don't have a tv but we do get to see one of our favorite shows online. That happens to be the Biggest Loser. But boy howdy, the DRAMA is just about to make me crazy. Please tell me that every word said by the contestants and the trainers are pre-written and not because they are so very dramatic, mean, stuck up, dysfunctional, etc. We are nearing the point of writing them off our list but I hate to do that but at the same time the drama is sickening! Anyone else feel this way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frugalmama Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Yep - I quit watching at the start of last season. It just got to be too much drama and felt like I was watching a novella :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocolate Rose Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Conda is making me crazy. She's just a brat. I'm hoping she goes soon. I think that the drama should die down pretty soon. Oh, and BOB! He's such a spoiled brat and a poor loser. It's like he's more concerned with his team winning than them actually being successful individuals losing weight. Even though I'm annoyed, I'm going to keep watching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herkey6 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I quit watching a couple of seasons ago. I love to see the challenges, and I love to see the before and after pictures, but I can't handle the drama. I even felt like the trainers were getting more dramatic as well - when it first started they were not as involved - only in the workout part, am I imagining that?

Sue G in PA Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I quit watching when Jillian left. Just wasn't the same anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost wonder if she's much, much better IRL and they set it up to maker her look really bad. Bob bugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forget-Me-Not Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 This isn't even the worst season by a long shot, as far as drama goes. I don't miss Jillian at all :D I love Dolvett. But I hate the amateur-psychobabble stuff. We DVR it and make liberal use of the FF button here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HSMom2One Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I'm not impressed with this season either. I think the producers and even Bob have let their heads get too big! The drama is driving me nuts to the point that all I wanted to watch last episode was the very end just to see who was going home. Yeah, every week I hope Conda gets to be the one....but not so far. BL has been a real favorite of my dh's and mine, that is up to this season. We sure hope this isn't the way it's going to continue!

meggie Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I stopped watching because of all the freaking product placement. Do I really need to see Bob extol the wonders of a ZIPLOC BAGGIE?!?!?!:angry: It's bad enough when they do it on Bones and Castle. Why must the actual show have commercials now; why not just leave it during the commercials?!?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsBasil Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I did stop watching, the drama, fighting, scheming and such just got to be too annoying! I think I threw in the towel during Heba and Vicky's season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forget-Me-Not Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I think I threw in the towel during Heba and Vicky's season. I think that was the worst season, of the seasons I've seen. I thought the season before the current one was really nice though. Not much drama, the contestants were really supportive of each other and classy about things.

I'd love to get some inspiration to lose some weight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamakim Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 We watch on the computer, too. Kim and Conda have been making us all so ill that halfway through this week's episode my dc decided to stop watching Biggest Loser altogether. I was amazed because this is the only TV show they watch online (except when "Chopped" episodes air half the year). They've watched for several seasons now, but this season is awful. And half the words are bleeped, too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are zipping through the commercials, or watching downloaded versions without them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In the Rain Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 The product placements really bugged me too. You could tell they were coming from the instant Bob or Jillian walked into the room smiling. It was too cheesy. We stopped watching last season, or the one before. The drama was just too much.

Desert Rat Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I only watch the last 45 minutes or so, while everyone is weighing in. That's the only part I'm interested in. Works great! You get to see the transformation and hear the tail end of the drama without really having to sit through all of it. I love, love, love my DVR! I love fast forwarding through stuff. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4everHis Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I can. not. stand. Conda! I think it's weird though that she didn't get any votes. I almost wonder if she's much, much better IRL and they set it up to maker her look really bad. Bob bugs. My thoughts too. I also have noticed that the contestants don't seem to be dropping big numbers like they used to. Am I imagining that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
