Biggest Loser (Page 13)

Do we seriously believe that rumor?

With Conda and Jeremy as 2/3 of the remaining players?  I'd be more surprised to find out that it wasn't true.

But don't they WANT to stay on the ranch????

I about fell out of the chair when I found out Chris is 44.  I thought she was mid-60's.  I am older than her.  Couldn't believe she wasn't at least 20 years older. 

I'll say it again, that I have a bad feeling for her and Santa....something's not quite right there.

What gave that way?  The codependency comment from episode 1?  The financial issues?

Okay, that preview for next week is CRAZY.  What the heck happens?  It's a bit ironic and childish actually after that whole White House thing.  I mean, talk about excuses...they basically decide that some event is worth walking out on a commitment?  Sounds like an excuse to me!  After they were all SO excited to meet the First Lady and accept her praise...they do something like THAT.

Now we know who is left.  Buddy, Kim, Conda, Jeremy, and Mark.  Other than Conda, NONE of those remaining players is a mega drama queen or trouble maker.  Really makes you wonder what happened.

It says production shut down...but doesn't say it didn't start up again.  The preview didn't call it a season finale or anything....

As for the actual episode...Chris is a piece of work....that is all.

I believe earlier in this thread someone mentioned they walked off the show because they let another contestant back on for the finale? I'd have to look through all the pages and I'm too lazy for that. I'm glad Kim is still here. I'd like for her to win it I think.

A bit of googling comes up with all sources citing about the same story....

They all get together and walk off because they hear that the producers are thinking about bringing contestants back.  Production eventually resumes but minus two contestants...which would mean they are down to the final three????

Hasn't there always been the possibility of people coming back?  If I remember correctly, Ali Vincent had been eliminated, won her way back on the ranch, and went on to win the whole thing.

Also, it seems sort of self-righteous to walk off after a trip to Hawaii, a make-over, and the trip to the White House where Michelle Obama said all those nice things to them.  And, so what if they did walk-off, couldn't they just let them go and replace them with eliminated contestants? 

And while I'm at it...  The clip at the end said that Kris and Santa were planning to bike across the country.  Doesn't that take some financial resources to be able to do and some significant time off from work (perhaps Santa is retired, but surely Kris has a job)? 

YES.

EXACTLY!!!

Well, if you camp and stuff it can be pretty cheap.  I just hope that they wear HELMETS when they do it.  Did anyone else notice that every bike shot of them was without helmets?????

I can't beleive I've been missing this thread! (I've never really checked out Cup O Joe before.)

I'm curious but skeptical about the walk-off as well. Mark and some of the other level-headed ones seem smarter than that. 

As for Chris... I like mayo but watching her put GOBS of mayo on those sandwiches was nasty! She's got some serious issues.

Hulu has them available next day, and keeps up the most recent episodes. That's how I always watch it

It was a lame workout, but I give her a lot of credit (and I am not a big Obama fan) for participating.  Try and imagine some of the previous First Ladies doing that!!   Yikes.

Chris' binge was certainly a bad sign, but I was happy to see her happy back with her family - hope it sticks for her - BTW was she putting peanut butter on a hamburger?.   As for the walk out - I share the feeling that others have expressed - Hawaii, White House, etc. and now they feel entitled.  Reality TV needs a reality check. 

Bob will put them in their place. It's what he does best.

Chris's binge was so....WEIRD. Obviously the camera guys were in the room with her -- it wasn't like the footage was from a surveillance cam. Can you imagine stuffing your face with (ugh) grilled cheese and mayo sandwiches while someone with a ginormous camera shoots you? I briefly considered that the whole thing was staged. I dislike Chris. She's awfully defensive and abrasive towards EVERYONE. She's also the one who whines the most and makes the most excuses. I was not sad to see her go.

Also: Bob's pants at the weigh-in....

Not to mention Dolvett's suit at the White House!

OMG, YES....just having a camera in my room would be enough to make me behave and not eat bad things!  It's one thing if it's caught on surveillance...having a CAMERAMAN in your hotel room is TOTALLY different! 

And I agree...burger = yum, grilled cheese = yum, globs of mayo on both of them = YUCK!
