Question...I just started watching this show with last year's season (the one with Shay, Danny, etc.) and
have become addicted to it.
I can find some episodes on youtube, but why hasn't NBC come out with a dvd set from the previous
seasons?
I'd probably use all of my vacation time, lock myself in my house and watch all of the seasons non-stop
until I've seen them all.

I've been wondering the same thing and looking everywhere for them!
Imagine the revenue they would generate. It would make up for $30 some million they paid
Conan O'Brien to leave

I agree.:noway: Ooooh I thought Red Husband was going to hit Bob last night! I LOVE the previews for next week.
Red Husband: You called her a liar in front of AMERICA
Jillian: That's because she LIED!
:laugh: :laugh: Man I can't wait until weigh in to see what she ends up losing/gaining!!!
She's quite the drama queen. Her poor hubby just has to go along - I wonder what was said that evening when the doors were closed?! :laugh:
Question:
I heard Bob ask Mrs. Red if she hit 3000...
What does that mean? 3000 calories burned daily? weekly? What do you think?0 -

3000 cals burned daily and he asked her if she had consumed another 7000 to make up for the burned calories that week.
I can't believe Mrs. Red said she would rather eat a cheeseburger the lose weight. That set Jillian right off at the weigh in.0 -
** deep, contented sigh **.....its FINALLY Tuesday....aaaahhhh!!
Ok, so cant wait till the show.....I hope Jill smacks V3 and/or her husband....uck...REALLY dont like these two...I think at least the original Vicky did actually WANT to lose weight. I know she wanted the money too, but she really did want the weight loss too. V3 and whatever her hubby's name is...they are just there only for the $$ and odds are, if they win or not...the weight is gonna be right back on. They scream "FAKERS" to me on screen.
(Sorry...just had to get that out!!)
Also hope Migdalia breaks down and talks to Jill tonight...I want to see her come full circle and start embracing her emotions...that wall is gonna kill her if she doesnt let it go.0 -
LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE!!!!!! :mad:0

The red team better PRAY they don't EVER go below that yellow line

I like the way you think!!!:laugh:0 -
I think the Game Show Network, or maybe it's something else near that on cable plays reruns.. Anyway, SO EXCITED to watch tonight. Wonder if Red wife is gonna drink water to counter SOME of the weight lost these past few weeks, otherwise it's going to be a huge number - unless she wasn't really losing (which I doubt). hoping to see the light bulb go off for the white team - he needs this - so hard to watch his mom plead with the other players to Save his life. She's right though, if he doesn't do it now, chances are, he won't have the ability/time/tools to do it in the future. Wish I could be there- then I remember, Jillian would be screaming at me. lol

watching right now......and i cant stand the green team!!!! i hope the mom goes home. they always seem so pist n have attitudes. they suck!!0
-
I can't believe the red team. I mean that wife of his is just plain nasty. She gave the two pound advantage to the green team and it didn't seem to matter. What really got to me was she even said it outloud at the weigh in. She was laughing and winking and I'm ready to smack that girl upside the head. Even Alison didn't look too happy with the girls attitude. She better pray to stay above the yellow line.
Maybe I can understand why migidalia wanted to go home. Her husband was going to be shipped overseas shortly. I suspect she just wanted to go home and spend the last few weeks with him.
I know that Jillian was getting tough on her, but she made a good point about the parenting. What she was getting at and I completely agree with her, doesn't neccessarly make you a bad parent. It's the bad habits you pass onto your kids. I agree with this because both of my parents are heavy. I picked up the bad habits from them.0 -
I'm not a big fan of this season's drama. Don't get me wrong, a little drama makes for good TV, but why don't people understand even though it's a way to help lose weight, but bottom line...it's still a game on TV! That is fine if Red is playing the game, but there is something annoying to me about the way she goes about it, and wtf is up with green?! I liked them the first week, seemed strong and competitive but the tough girls act got old fast! I really wanted Miggy to go home. The 2 pounds didn't matter and she still talked crap at the weigh in...it's probably her own fault for being such a crab *kitten* all week that she didn't lose much.0
-
This I can understand, it had to be very hard for her, but that makes me think she shouldn't have even came and gave someone else a chance to be there.

:explode: AAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:explode:
Go home V3!!!!!0 -
I am not a fan of the red team at all!!! I agree with some, the green teams attitudes were bad, they can't just hold all their stress in, I'm sure that was reflected in the weigh in. But the RED team - YUCK!!! Couldn't believe their luck with the cards. I really wish the Pink team would see more success, they really need it, it almost hurts me to watch them walk up the stairs to the scales, I hope they hang in there!
Also - I LOVE the grey team - they are working so hard to succeed! Love their attitudes, hope they stick around a long time.0 -
Big fan of the grey team here. Koli seriously could be my buddy's twin. They *seem* like genuine, good-hearted people.
I'm beginning to think my father has a 2nd family because Darrell looks JUST LIKE my dad, also Darrell. :laugh: My dad used to be about that big, too. The only thing missing is he's just not crazy enough to be my father. And also, I can't understand half of what my dad says these days. He speaks in garbled southern old man speak a lot of the time. "Okay, dad!" *smile and nod*
Like the rest of you, I don't care for the red team or green team. Every time Miggy tells her daughter "don't cry" I want to punch her in the face. :explode: I would've liked to see Miggy voted off instead but I have a feeling if that happened, Migdalia would've just completley shut down. :ohwell:
Red team is stupid. As if the rest of the country doesn't think southerners are stupid enough already. Thanks, guys. Way to represent. Why don't you knock out a few teeth, smoke some meth, and then go talk to your local news field reporter about how the "tornader that flipped mah trailer sounded lak a freight train!" while you're at it?
Red team may have "lost respect" for Jillian, but I sure gained a lot when she didn't back down. It's good to stand up for your logical and rational beliefs.0 -

LOL!!!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:0 -
I SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO agree w/everyone here!!
Red team = yuck!! I was :explode: when they got immunity again but happy when they lost the 2nd challenge
Green team = yuck!! Get over the tough chic attitude already, obviously the stress is what caused them to lose minimal weight this week.
Gray team= yes!! They're my favorite!! Great genuine humble guys and they continue to be focused on the reason they are there.
Jillian= lubs here for sticking to her guns and being honest and telling red team in her FACE she's a liar!!
Bob= He should've stood up to them too, he's not their to be their best friend he's their to save their lives!!0 -
Who saw Bob on Leno after the show?? Red wife is a lawyer in real life! :laugh: I thought that was hilarious. I told my husband that the producers had to have set it up for the red team to win - those keys were not really registering X or Check - the producers did it that way so that it'd be suspenseful & so that there would be the drama. After the first person swiped the card I told him that it was set up that Red would win - poor Purple daughter :ohwell: she lapped people a bajillion times & still didn't get a card.
Yeah, Green daughter ticked me off with her attitude "send me home, simple decision, no thinking, DO IT" If she REALLY wanted to see her hubs before he deployed she could have said that & it would ahve been the end of it & the other teams would have at least understood & had a good feeling about her Mom staying. AND someone needs to slap Green Mom - telling her daughter not to cry was ridiculous.
I, too, love the gray team - I really liked Phillipe & Sione (spelling?) on their season though, those boys are very humble. :bigsmile: I think I'd like for one of them to win.
Pink daughter wasn't as funny this week as she has been - she needs to stop wearing that stupid headband though, its a terrible look . :laugh: Same with Orange son, cut his hair & he'd lose 3lbs. 0 -

HERE HERE!!! I totally agree. I am very impressed with the integrity of the grey team (thus far). They may resort to game play later, but they've shown themselve to be two really stand up guys up till now with all their actions. When they had immunity THEY didnt slack off in order to stack the deck for the following week. I love these two!
And I couldnt have said it any better about the "respect" issue. I actually thought a little less of Bob for caving and more of Jillian for sticking to it and saying what everyone else in the US knows...that V3 is a damn liar and a REALLY bad actress...
"oh...boo hoo...my integrity is everyting to me". Well then honey needs to take her some acting lessons!! And, if she's a lawyer...I hope its not a defense lawyer 'cause the clients would swing!!0 -
. :laugh: Same with Orange son, cut his hair & he'd lose 3lbs.
LOL - I was thinking the same thing!!! -0 -
I agree with Nelski - I felt for Migdalia, if she wanted to be home with husband before he was deployed overseas, BUT, then why be on the show?! Give someone else that WANTS to be there a chance!! Red team wife was just deceitful and mean. I think that's why I can't stand her. Knew they'd give that check mark for immunity to her too... I liked what Jillian said, She HAD to lose some this week... Probably couldn't drink 18 pounds of water! LOL! So happy that Michael lost 15 pounds! Way to go! and I think my fav team is definitely the Gray team- I just want to hug those guys, they are so cute and I would be so proud if they were my family - they have the integrity to take it to the end, I also liked the little purple gal- can't recall her name. I think she did a wonderful job sticking to it, just wish we saw more of her on the show, instead of the beastly red "lady." As for the green team, I hope that Miggy can befriend some housemates, so that she knows people are out there rooting for her and her daughter to succeed. That's what I want for people on the show- I want them to lose weight. I think her "underdog" attitude wasn't really serving her very well- she is stronger and better than that. I think she just didn't want Migdalia to show any "weakness" to the enemy. I think her daughter has more heart and spirit and soul than that red team ever dreamt of having. COURAGE!0
-
so...which team do you guys think is going to be the ones to come back the yellow or the other ones (I think they were blue??)0
-
When red team won immunity, I was so mad!!!! Then in the challenge they were neck and neck with gray and I was screaming, "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" and then gray won and all was right again with the world. As for the green team. I think
they should have made an exception and sent them both home! Red team is playing the game, but the green team is just full of attitude! I was hoping that Miggy would've gotten the last vote. I think Migdelia would've done better without her mother there to tell her "Don't cry, don't let them see you cry." That's the root of her problem right there. She bottles up everything and it reflects on the scale.
I think blue team is going to be the one to come back to the ranch. Can't wait for next week!!!!0 -

Chicken Cacciatore
(from The Biggest Loser, season 9)
2 teaspoons olive oil
Four 4-ounce pieces boneless, skinless chicken breast
1 cup onion, sliced thin
1 clove garlic, chopped fine
1 red bell pepper, cut into medium dice
2 cups button mushrooms, cleaned and quartered
1/4 cup red wine
2 cups Muir Glen diced fire roasted tomatoes (sodium free)
1 sprig thyme
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 cup broccoli, cut into small pieces
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
5 kalamata olives, pitted and roughly chopped
1 cup steamed brown rice to serve
Heat a large saucepot over medium high heat and add 1 teaspoon of oil to the pan.
Season the chicken with pepper and sear for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove the chicken to a plate and add the remaining oil to the pan.
Saute the onions for 3 minutes stirring constantly, then add the garlic and bell peppers. Cook the garlic and peppers for 2 minutes and add the mushrooms. Cook the mushrooms for 4 minutes stirring often. Add the red wine and allow to reduce until almost dry. Add the tomatoes to the pot and stir well. Add the thyme, bay leaf and oregano. Bring to the simmer and reduce heat to low.
Add the chicken back to the sauce and simmer gently for 8 to 10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly. Stir in all but one pinch of the parsley.
To serve, spoon 1/4 cup of brown rice onto the center of a serving plate. Place one portion of chicken on top of the rice and spoon some of the sauce and vegetables over the chicken, repeat with remaining plates. Sprinkle a little of the chopped olives and remaining parsley over each plate of chicken and serve.
Makes 4 servings.0 -

For those of you who can't get enough TBL here is a link to Tara Costa's blog about the episode, she blogs each week, always interesting to read from the perspective of a person who has been through it.
