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.

TBL 7×13 – Elimination Elicits Alliance Agony!

Previously on The Biggest Loser… Biggest Brother Bunker Boogie!

The trainers had the spy cameras around Camp revealed to them and all the awful revelations that entailed. Contestants pigging out, lazing around and generally doing all the things that lead to them ending up on the show.

The weekly challenge kicked off. A very long slog through a muddy mess of an obstacle course. And surprising the girls have finished while the guys still struggle towards the finish line. Letting us down, boys!

Tonight! We find out whether Blue or Black will be going into the Weigh-In with a 2kg weight penalty.
Later, Tiff will blow a fuse at her slacking White Ninjas after seeing they’re not training when they should be.

But first, back to Hamish sliding down the slippery slide and into the water, followed by Luke and Shannan.
Black is just entering the mud pit/pool near the finish line with Steve wading into the mud beside them.

As we pick up the action Blue are still closing the gap with Black. Graham’s struggling at the end of the pool still, unable to get back to his feet and unable to roll himself free of the mud. A number of other contestants are standing around them at this point and Steve is screaming at Graham to get up and get onto the solid ground. A couple of the other contestants make a move to help him but everyone reminds them they can’t help.

TBL 7×12 – PIGS. IN. MUD!

Previously on The Biggest Loser the contestants faced the fear of public speaking in front of a group of strangers and were rewarded with letters and photos from home.

And then, as if to punish them for feeling good about themselves, they faced a twelve hour lockdown in their bedrooms with piles of tempting foodstuffs and the delicious aroma of fresh meat pies and sausage rolls.
Whichever team ate the most calories during the lockdown would receive Immunity for their entire team.

Tonight we find out if White has managed to top Blue’s 2,745 calories.
Also the weekly challenge kicks off. It’s a long obstacle course through the rain and mud.

As we get past Hayley repeating the count from last night we pick up the action as Hayley starts spelling out how many calories each Blue Team member ate. Luke did 818 calories, all by himself.
836 calories for Ryan. Both had around 500 calories left to consume for the day. So they both blew their food budget.

TBL 7×11 – A Twelve Hour Temptation. A TWELVE HOUR TEMPTATION.

Previously on The Biggest Loser poor Shane was sent home.

The Biggest Brother spy cameras were revealed to the trainers with many horrible revelations of secret eating and not so secret slacking off.

The contestants all did some public speaking and will be getting rewarded for their success tonight.

Later, Temptation rears its ugly head once more with everyone being locked in their bedrooms for a twelve hour stretch with seemingly only a pile of junk food to eat. Nasty!

But first a replay of a bunch of the speaking bits from last night on the stage to remind us what the contestants are about to be rewarded for.
Their surprise is waiting for them back at Camp.

So they go back to Camp and they see a bunch of photos on the walls of their friends and family. Awwww!
Also, a letter from… someone. I imagine they all get their own letters and not just a copy of the same one from someone they don’t know.
