I love this show! It's great to see the contestants work hard and push themselves so they can change their lives. There is some language (some aduible, some bleeped out) and A LOT of product placement, though.

I luv!!!!!!!
I luv this show! I've been watching it for seasons, but I think the powerful language from some contestants is bad! Bob and Jillian are good role models, because they change lives

Sick, Disgusting, Cruel, even for a weight loss show! Read my review.
I watched this show, and thought it was okay. However, later, an overweight man was doing level two on the treadmill and his trainer started yelling at him (and saying f***) and telling him that what he was doing was no good. He said that he knows his body's level and how to push himself, but the trainer kept swearing and yelling until the man got off and said "You know, nobody talks to me like that!" and left. I thought the trainer was being mean (I know they're supposed to push the person, but she was being mean about it.). Also, they made the people play cards and gamble with fatty foods. Whoever had the highest card wins, and the others in the game must EAT all of the calories they bet (It got up to over 2,000!)! They did this because whoever won got to pick the teams! That's so horrible! Many people said no and that that's just not worth it. I thought they wanted to help them lose weight, not gain it! Why not do a helthy challenge! It was horrible. It was disgusting. Why do that to these people who are trying so hard? It was interesting to watch and entertaining and suspenseful but still! UGH!!!

Great Show,one of my favorites!
A very good show that teaches kids and adults what happens when you aren't careful of what you eat. there is some cuss words by Jillian,Bob and some contestents but mostly it is bleeped out. there is also some noticable products Subway,Ziplock,Quaker oatmeal,Etc.over all a great show that teaches you the importance of good exercise and eatting balanced diets.

Tween+ Magic
This is an awesome show because it teaches tweens about the inportance of eating healthy and exercising. And I think it;s a beautiful thing to watch contestants slim down, not only on the outside, but in the inside. Although, I don't think kids under 11 should watch it because they would take it too seriously and you don't want your six-year old to get exposed to the idea that it's SO easy to get obese, they'd overreact to it. But if your old enough to handle it, it;s a great show. I love watching it with my dad and mom, and it really inspired my mom to start eating healthier (she used to be overweight) when she saw what the contestants were going through, and she lost thirty pounds by herself after improving habits and began exercising, I'm so proud of her, she's healthy now, and just as beautiful on the outside as I know she's been all along in the inside :)

Good messages, but more for tweens
a few swear words, normally bleeped. They have some talk about alcohol but nothing suggestive about it. But there are very educational messages.

I think biggest loser is two star for the bad language I can not use. The camershalse are long, and it gets a little boring.

the biggest loser is nbc's winner
A good show that teaches people how to be fit while watching a chronicling of contestants' adventures into weight loss. The show is a mix of many emotions, such as sadness, happiness, excitement, etc. The show of their weight is grotesque and may be inappropriate, and they also have potty mouths and sob stories like deaths along the way. Overall, a good show for people looking for fitness.

i really like this show.
i really like this show. i think it's good that the fat people are putting off all thats going on just to lose weight in like 3 months. it's mainly for teens in tweens. i know they bleep out the cuss words but they sometimes don't do it like i heard on of the trainers say b***h

A show with a good message
The Biggest Loser is a great reality show! It shows people how to eat healthy and exercise. It also gives obese people to have the chance to get their lives back and lose a healthy amount of weight. A lot of twists and turns are going on throughout the show, which keeps me entertained. There is a little bit of language, and there are very obvious signs of comsumerism (Trident gum, Ziploc bags, 24 Hour Fitness, Brita, etc.)

One of my favorite shows :)
This motavational show encourages normal people to loose weight in a natural, hard way. It is hard for the people but in the end they can gain a healthy lifestyle. It teeches teens and tweens that "if theres a will theres a way" and this show is very powerful and overall, if you like reality tv it is very good and i strongly reccoment it.
