The Biggest Loser is a great motivator to work off weight, and a good way to make those not so hendered by weight issues aware of what a struggle it can be for the obese population ever growing in today's society. You really get to know the contestants and begin rooting for them all, even when they're up against your favorites.

On the downside, the show really should be about an hour. The commercial breaks are rediculous, especially around the weigh-ins and the voting and the end. When coming back from a commercial, they NEVER pick-up at the point where they left off buy roll back the footage to the point of absolute annoyance. A good 20 minutes of useless replay footage could be cut. And the shameless product promotion plugs are rediculous. It's not Texaco Television in the 50's already. Make it an hour, loose the impromptu promos, and cut out the 'suspense' replays and the show would be perfect.
