A Request
October 27, 2010
Dear NBC,
I know that it would be a pain in the butt to have a 90 minute television show on a Tuesday night. What would you put on at 8pm or 930pm instead? But please, PLEASE-FOR-THE-LOVE-OF-ALL-THAT-IS-GOOD!!!!, make The Biggest Loser fit into an hour or an hour and a half block, not a two hour block. I have to completely skip the whole voting part of the show now, because I cannot bear to hear Allie repeat herself over and over and OVER again. You hear me, NBC?! I can’t take it anymore!
So knock it off! Don’t make her repeat everything she says 3 times just to fill in a few more minutes of showtime. I can put up w/ your shameless plugs for Ziplock and Subway and Extra gum and Walgreens. I can handle the ridiculously dramatic music right before a commercial in the middle of someone’s weigh-in. But the repetition of rules and policies (which we ALL. KNOW!!!) makes the show a real pain in the butt to watch and it grates more with each passing episode. I’m just sayin’.
Sincerely,
- the Getty Girl
PS - I know you want this season to be different, but so far, it’s pretty lame. I don’t actually like most of the contestants and they seem to be largely (har har) drama queens and game players – or just not-so-bright. So. Your bad.
