TV show description:
A reality show in which overweight contestants slim down and compete to win $250,000.
Competitors are housed on a ranch, split into two teams, and are assigned a fitness trainer. Each week, the team that loses the least amount of weight must vote one of their members out of the competition. In later weeks, contestants compete as individuals. Each episode features a temptation of some kind, a reward challenge, the weigh-in and the elimination vote.
Creator/executive director J.D. Roth has narrated and actresses Caroline Rhea and Alison Sweeney have hosted.
Episode #264
The 16 contestants from this season return for a special reunion and a chance to weigh in one last time and show America how much weight they’ve lost since beginning their weight-loss journeys. Those who have been eliminated will compete for the $100,000 “at home” prize. Then it’s the moment viewers have been waiting for, when one of the three finalists is named this season’s “Biggest Loser” and win the coveted grand prize of $250,000.
First aired: February 22, 2016.
What do you think? Do you like The Biggest Loser TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for an 18th season?
Best show going. I don’t miss it.
If i can’t be home to watch it, i record it.
The same with the “Losing it with Jillian
Show”.
This show has helped millions of people…If NBC ever cancels this show I will boycot NBC. Too many shows have been canceled that are worth watching. BL is the best reality show. BL gives us a hope and a realization to what needs to be and can be done about this countries obeseity problem.
