TBL 7×17 – Footloose and Fancy Free Friday. Fnord.
Previously on The Biggest Loser… oh, right, this is a Friday episode!
Tonight we see Shannan blow a gasket during training, some more loveydovey stuff with Michelle and Hamish (oooooh!) and we get a special catchup with Brenda, one month after leaving Camp.
But first, Hayley casually sitting on a high director’s style chair introducing the show. Drama, biggest stories, blowups, emotion and a contestant makeover. Loser like you’ve never seen before, Hayley promises.
To be honest that all sounds exactly like what we get every single episode and this will just be some extra bits they couldn’t squeeze in at the appropriate time.
Before we get to any of the new stuff let’s have a MONTAGE! Show lots of things, happening at once, etc etc. It’s basically a quick recap of the week’s events. You’ve either been watching, reading recaps or don’t really care that much anyway. So let’s get on to the new stuff?
I’m not recapping the recap footage, by the way. If you really want to read about it, go back and read about it. Gosh!

TBL 7×16 – Temptation! Both of the food and the squidgysquidgy love kind!
Previously on The Biggest Loser the boys have been made to eat orange things all week. Which makes a change from them usually only eating orange things after the finale.
Also a fancypants Temptation kicked off. Lydia tried some crazy strategy that was no kind of strategy at all, as proven by Hamish screwing up her lame plan.
Hamish is now in the final faceoff with Ryan, Mr Voiceover Man says. But did we even see Hamish face off with Michelle yet?
Anyway. Later in the episode the weekly challenge kicks off and even though Loser will be on tomorrow night we will still have to wait until Monday to find out who wins, pffft!
Hamish is recapping the situation as it stands and he says there’s two people still to go, meaning Ryan isn’t in the final faceoff with Hamish. Mr Voiceover Man is a stupidhead.
As things pick up Ryan is sure he’s going to play but not sure if Hamish will do so. As Hayley rings her bell Ryan’s giant lump of meat where his hand should be grabs at the spoon but Hamish is right on the ball, grabbing it straight away.
Ryan’s now left wondering how many earlier bits Hamish has had to eat and thinks Commando AND Shannan will be giving Hamish a hard time. Because they’re one team.
Hamish has a smirk on his face and asks Ryan if he’s jealous. Ryan says nope, and he won’t be jealous when Hamish is crying.
Yeah, he’s getting a night away for sexy times with Michelle. Tears later, snogging first!

TBL 7×15 – Sweet, delicious Temptation. And oranges!
Previously on The Biggest Loser Brenda got sent home at Elimination after the alliance with White fell through.
Then BOYS VERSUS GIRLS! No longer in four teams they’re in just two.
At The Contest the girls managed to overcome the boys and win the right to go on The Walk.
As well as The Walk tonight the girls will have a training session where they right things on paper and then punch and kick the pieces of paper. You know, like they seem to do every season now.
Temptation kicks off. It’s fancy feasts all round! Everyone’s all dolled up and the various tempting foods will be brought in by a proper waiter and everything. Should be fun.
But first Lydia must go on The Walk. Lydia’s remembering the last time The Walk happened and Selena returning to the game as a result. She knows this is likely to be a big game changer.
Lydia arrives at the bunker and there’s three munition cases again. Same as last time, power over Food, Training or Mystery. Without getting to see inside first you’ve got to decide which one would be best and with there only being two teams this week, this power could make all the difference come weigh-in time.
Lydia’s worried there might be some backlash towards her depending on which option she takes. Well, it’s simple, choose Mystery. They’re going to understand you getting something bad for them out of that more than they will if you pick to mess with their Food or Training.
So, of course, Lydia picks the Food box! So much for her making the smart choice.

The Biggest Loser now airs five nights a week!
Good news, everyone!
Or at least good news for everyone who doesn’t have to transcribe episodes for the monstrous hordes. :)
Biggest Loser is going to start airing five nights a week once again. Monday through Friday, starting at 7pm each night.
Monday to Thursday will remain an hour in length though Friday’s show will be just 30 minutes.
Interestingly the Friday episode will be more of a recap and extra footage thing, along with a catchup with the week’s eliminated contestant, according to the official site.
The Friday show will still be hosted by Hayley. “Bio Age” guy Dr Norman Swan will be pitching in, here and there, to give updates on contestant/eliminee progress.
And Sammy from Season 4 will also be showing up! It’s not clear what her role will be but I’d imagine it will be insights into life at Fat Camp.
Sounds promising, right?
TBL 7×14 – Elimination causes more kerfuffling. And a new twist to the game!
Previously on The Biggest Loser… Blue gained Team Immunity leaving Red and Black to face elimination.
At a tense Elimination it was decided Brenda from the Red Team would be the one to go home.
Tonight, the Secret Women’s Business Alliance is revealed in the post-Elimination dustup. Red and White had some kind of agreement not to vote for other girls but something obviously changed at some point. Perhaps White realised Red would stab them in the back if they didn’t do it first?
Later another Contest kicks off. This whole week is Boys versus Girls rather than the regular teams, so The Contest is likely to be more hotly contested than usual.
Black and Red are in Loser Lounge waiting for the contestants to come back. Simon and Graham are worried Alex won’t be back, leaving the Black Team on two.
Margie tells us she’s very confident Brenda will be back. She tells us the White Team had promised not to vote for anyone on Red and Red promised the same in return.
White Team files into the lounge first and none of them can make eye contact with Red so they twig early that something has gone awry.
