Date: 2007-10-31 04:28 pm (UTC)i am a person who watches teevee, but i haven't ever watched the biggest loser; i'm not usually very interested by reality shows. but! the hoptoad and i became very very curious at the teaser ads for the most recent episode about someone "gaining 17 lbs...on PURPOSE!" and how this affected the other cast members. having never watched the show, we don't get how that would be to anybody's advantage. do you feel like explaining, or should i just go read the television without pity recap and try to figure it out that way?
