I have always loved The Biggest Loser, but this season I'm really glad I have Tivo because I get tired of them dragging the shows out over an hour. It's a little much--I fast forward through some of it.

I really like the premise of having couples on the show--the interactions are really interesting. But there's a lot more of the gameplay/drama this season and not nearly enough of the "feel good" stuff. With so much faked drama and crap on TV nowadays, it's nice to have a show that leaves you with a good feeling. I'm not liking this season's extra-contrived gameplay.

It's a great motivator...
