Among the many reality shows today,
The Biggest Loser is very much one of its kind. Sure, there’s still the game play that you see on other competitive reality shows, and there’s the drama that you see on almost every one of them, but this show manages to inspire everyone, and in a very sincere way. (Then again, the game play aspect can turn viewers against a contender.) In the end, everybody wins the show, regardless of who actually wins the prize—all because they’ve changed their lives for the better. We here at BuddyTV are continually mesmerized, too—I guess that shows in our coverage of the latest season,
The Biggest Loser: Couples. Here, on one easy-to-track page, are all our episode recaps and exclusive interviews, plus a quick guide to how each contestant is faring and how much they’ve lost. So, come on in, take a look, and hopefully, be inspired too. Now enough of the cheese…
