The Biggest Loser briefly becomes not the most boring show on TV


Like Mark Lemke in the 1991 World Series, sometimes things that are usually so woefully below average have an out-of-body experience and briefly become something completely brilliant and awesome. Last night was like that for the NBC program The Biggest Loser (CLICK)


Oh, SNAP!


"Why don't you tell me what you mean, Jillian?" Effing classic.

I'm horribly offended that anything like this got on the air waves. Where are the moral and values that made this country the greatest place on earth? If things like this continue to bombard our youth on a daily basis what kind of future can they have.

I mean really…fat people?

I'm continually impressed at the amount of skill and discipline it takes to do that. I mean, I swear CONSTANTLY. And I rarely have the presence of mind to make my mouth go all fuzzy and make that high-pitched squealing sound at the same time. But I guess these people are on TV, so they have to learn a whole different set of skills I could never have any idea about.

Hey, here's another fun clip demonstrating what happens when two people who work together can't stand each other:

SMELL the tension! TASTE the schadenfreude!

What a bunch of uncomfortable people. Watching reality television is like Thanksgiving Dinner with the whole family, every night of the week for the rest of your life. Who wouldn't sign up?

Yes, your sister is control freak, Helen. And it only took you 31 years of verbal abuse to come to that determination.

I think reality TV is REALLY a way to make people pay attention to the commercials. After about 2 minutes of non-stop bickering, I cradle my head, rock back and forth, and start softly chanting nonsense words. When the commercial for the brand new car or delicious beer comes its like a breath of cool, moist air in the desert.

Don't let those people open their mouths again.

Yes, I will drink your bud lite. I will drink it all up.
