“Fit for TV”
Remember the show “The Biggest Loser” that ran for 17 seasons on NBC from 2004-2016? The audience tuned in weekly to witness the weight loss journey of obese men and women until ultimately the “biggest loser” was revealed on the season finale. Fast forward to the present and watch this fascinating 3-episode docuseries that features past participants, winners, producers, one of the personal trainers (Bob Harper) and Dr. Huizenga. The balance of “helping” the willing participants lose weight was tempered by the need to have high drama and high ratings. The commentary of the key players runs the gamut - from it changed my life (in a good way) to it ruined me. You will likely binge this series (no pun intended).
