Just an FYI for anyone who cares. New season starts Tues. at 8 EST and is on for 2 hours.

From the commercial I just saw, I see Alison say "you are officially the biggest person we've ever weighted in" and there is a woman standing on the scale. If the weight they showed is hers, it looks like it said 453 but the middle number is a little blurred out.

Tuesday, which Tuesday. No date...........eeek, I hope I haven't missed it. It's my biggest favourite show, or one of them, along w/the Amazing Race. I'm in Canada, Pacific Time, maybe that makes a difference?

Sorry smile Didn't think about putting the date, just the time.

You all get the same date / time airings that we do here in US?

It's usually the same date, but not necessarily the same time, depending on location. I'm on Pacific time. The east is on EST, or maybe EDT. Don't know. But it says on Zap2it that it's on at 8:00 pm.........I'll double check though.

Great to see it back. I've missed it.

Doing the same thing as well. With BB being the finale I have to watch it. smile Glad for that way that turned out, and I'm looking forward to watching BL tomorrow during the day.

Anyone watch it tonight? Was it good? Anyone you love / hate from the start?

No one to hate yet. A few of the players have some very sad stories that have led to weight gain. No teams under Bob and Jillian this time. Both will coach everyone. And WOWOWOW Jillian is not holding back. More yelling then coaching. They may need this but after last night Jillian was getting on my nerves the most. Bob not far behind.

Trixiebell, I totally agree about Bob and Jillian. frown I know they can both be pushy and mean at times but it did seem they were pushing it just a little to far for my liking.

When the girl that's the biggest was on the floor with Jillian and she was trying to lift up those hand dumbbell things. I said if that was me, I'd be forced to drop one on her hand and say something about being focused now.

I think they could have made a much better and stronger statement about the whole "if they can do it, you can do it" if they would have yelled less at her and talked / explained things more. Watching her sure made me wonder just how dangerous it is for someone her size to try and do the things they have people doing.

I see the difference with Bob and Jillian too. But I wonder, every season, contestants talk about how tough B&J can be, yet I never really see it as bad as they did. Maybe this season, they are showing us more than they have before. Perhaps they've always been as tough, but we are just now seeing it. Magic of editing. Idk. Just a thought.

As for who went home, I hate for anyone to go home week one. Just seems too soon. But I hated how as soon as their numbers were low, she immediately "pointed the finger". Kind of irritated me. I didn't hate her. At this point, I have no favorites nor anyone I dislike too much. But she annoyed me. Granted, she had a point. Her weight loss was good for a female and his was, by comparison, not as good as the other males. But, everyone is different. And it was only the first week. I hated to see her go, but at the same time, glad he stayed.

Does anyone know how they chose who was to get to pick their partners? I know Daniel got first choice for winning the challenge. But, how did they pick who got to choose after that? Was it by who came in next after him and so on? I never heard them say.

RobLove, I do believe that is how they did it. I remember Ally saying something like so and so, since you came in second you go next. And then they just called out names after that, so I just assumed it was in order they crossed the finish line.

I wasn't too happy about Daniel coming back since there are so many people who would like to get on for the first time. But I did like his reasons for choosing Shay so now I am 'ok' about it.
I really liked Coach Mo last night. I wonder if he can stay that likable as time goes on.
I think Sean will be really hot once he loses weight.
So far I don't really dislike anyone. And I like how supportive they are with each other (for the most part).

Hm. Don't care for Tracy. Yes, it is a game as well as a weight loss journey. But, which is the more important? Do what you can to stay as long as possible. But, she clearly lied to more than one couple. She could have just told the truth. Its not as if they could have done anything about it. At LEAST be honest.

Wish she would go. But then, I don't want Mo to go.

How respectful and kind what the red team did. smile

Tracy is physcho. I want her gone but want Mo to stay. I loved Jillian going after her during the weigh in. I wonder if Jillian will train her any more. I also agree with Jillian that Mo cannot rely on his partner. She will always put herself first.

The red team had me in tears by their selflessness. I was so happy they did so well at home.

Ok what change a week makes. I think Tracy is such a stupid person. Although I thought it was her own fault for overdoing it at the beginning and landing in the hospital, I still wanted her to not be eliminated right after she got back. All the other contestents were so kind and supportive of her.
And how does she repay that kindness? yeah by being a jerk

I wanted her gone but I didn't want Mo to have to go. I was so very impressed by Sean and Antoine, by their offering to be eliminated and by what they have accomplished since then. They are the role models we want to see.

The sad thing is that I don't think Tracy realizes what she has done. She isn't evil like Vile Vicky. She is just stupid. Even if she wanted to 'play The Game' that early, she should at the very least considered how her actions could affect her partner Mo. I hope next week is individuals and that she is eliminated.

This week's show with Tracy was horrendous IMO. What are the producer's thinking -- After watching her dictate who would weigh-in, I was praying for an uprising among the others, to oust Tracy.

She is congenitally nasty. The red team, particularly the youth pastor, brought tears to my eyes, with his kindness at such a young age. Good for the red team!

The Tracy rubbish is NOT what The Biggest Loser is all about. It's about making changes, making a difference, trying the hardest possible and working till you drop. Pretty disgusting show I feel. It's my favourite TV show, and I joined a gym because of it. As I cycle/row away, when I want to stop I see the trainers yelling at me.........last chance workout, and I keep going.

The Tracy's of this world have no part in that at all for me.

I'm so glad Jillian went off on her twice. I don't think it did any good, but I would bet it made Jillian feel better, and I know it made me feel better. I knew Tracy was going to screw the girls in Pink, but I really didn't expect her to screw over orange.

I cried at the end when the red team was talking to everyone. They are really sweet guys. And wow, how about the girl being voted off week one ending up being a couple with Antoine? That was a nice surprise and ending. They are the third couple that ended up together because of the show. Thats really cool. smile It's awesome how well both guys did.
