Did any of you watch this show last night at 8 on NBC???
I felt myself crying several times listening to these peoples confessionals and such. WOW!!! I want that girl personal trainer. Some of them lost 22 lbs in ONE week…if I saw results like that I’d be THRILLED!

I don't like reality shows either... there's a radio commercial here that features a lady is confessing her sins to her clergyman!
Why did you cry?
And I didn't say you and everyone laughs. But most ppl find reality shows entertaining. I don't find the anguish, pain, or degradement of another human being as being entertaining.
I agree whole heartedly.

I have seen two episodes of The Apprentice. The one good thing about that show, you can learn how from them how to be a good project manager. I watched the last episode with SK, and let me tell you, the guy was an idiot. lol. That show, to me, is more about learning the business versus degrading a person.
Things like, what was that show that was like American Idol, but the ppl were bad. That was just SAD. Or, Swan, or Extreme Makeovers. Or how to marry a millionaire, remember that one? The Bachelor/ette, those types. Bleah.
I was hoping the Biggest Loser would be more humanist based, but after learning competitions were more about "don't eat the brownie" versus other things, I just kinda lost respect for it. I am hoping it'll turn out better, versus worse.

I thought it would be stupid but felt I related a lot to the struggles of the people.
I don't watch reality tv at all. I've watched a couple bachelors, they suck and I do watch the apprentice although I'm not impressed wiht this season. That's about it. lol

Well I think that aspect is about the competition, getting your teammates to take it seriously, if you can't avoid the bacon (which one guy ate 7 slices) and go for the healthier versions that are there, then your teammates are trying to rally behind because you'll bring them down as well.
I haven't seen anything about tempting them yet None of that was in the first episode at all.
I recant...I watched an episode over the weekend and found myself a bit sucked in.
