Worst. Episode. Ever! (apologies for the rant)

Much to my disgust, the Biggest Loser has become a regular feature on my evening TV. Try as I might, I cannot escape the morbid fascination that thin women have to watch fat women.

Tonight, however, almost drove me to risk life and limb and change the channel. I shall explain why...

Not content with the 68 episodes of the last season, and afraid that after the current 69 episodes of this season have not given Australian audiences enough loser's weight loss, the shows producers decided to bring back two of the already eliminated losers and devoted this evenings show to have the 11 losers who have already lost battle each other to make it back into the competition.

This guarantees at least another two weeks of every night (but Saturday) biggest loser.

But wait! Theres more!

To quote the shows horrible host saying as the two who didn't get selected, but got close, were flashing forward in time lamenting the fact that they didn't get selected, "things are never as they seem on the biggest loser!".

Those two near misses also were welcomed back into the clammy folds of the competition.

Four more contestants, Four more weeks.

At my count (and I really have no idea how the rules work, you can read the wikipedia page, but I refuse to) this gives us a total of 7 more weeks of biggest loser, 42 more episodes making 111 episodes in total!

And another thing, the shows editors are useless. One minute we have the eliminated fatties talking about what is going through their heads in the present tense and suddenly with no warning we switch to flashback with the fatties reminiscing about what was going through their heads in the past tense.

By the way, what do you call the eliminated losers? They are losers who lost, what does that make them? Clearly not winners and clearly not the 'littlest loser', although they lost at the biggest loser, as they are still morbidly obese.
