Biggest Loser Finale Review

*
I have to start this out by saying: 3 HOURS?!? REALLY?!?


I mean, we all KNOW that they could fit their weekly 2 hour show into 1 hour if they just cut the fat. No pun intended. So, I'm sure they could have done the finale in 2 hours EASY! And watching it with no DVR... Ouch.


That being said, here is my rundown split up in "the good", "the bad" and "the ugly".


The Good
* Jerry & Estella both looked really great! Although, doesn't Jerry look older than 64?
* Ali looked really good! She definitely lost the baby weight. (According to Lee, she did not lost the baby boobs.)
* Jerry winning the at-home prize. What a sleeper! I totally did not see that coming.
* Nicole looked really great! Skinny, but with muscle. Impressive.
* Sione & Filipe's Tongan dance. I don't know why, but that cracks me up every time. I think it is the super serious looks they get on their face. And did you see Sione's watch almost fly off?
* Tara & Mike both looked really good. They looked healthy.


The Bad
* Helen's daughter Shanon still being a bit porky. Seriously, how did Helen let her go home so that SHE could stay on campus and get super skinny? Shanon had more weight to lose than Helen.
* David. I totally called this. He had lost like 40 lbs total. Which isn't much when you start out at close to 400 lbs.
* Damien's thighs. Wow. You can tell he lost a lot of weight, but somehow his thighs are still ginormous. That is so strange for a dude. Plus, he seemed to be confused and think he was Filipe with all his yelling.
* They kept showing Max, Mike's brother, Ron's son and he is still huge. I was kind of hoping for some progress out of him as well.
* NO PREVIEW FOR NEXT SEASON. BOO HISS!!!


The Ugly
* Daniel. He did really great, I must say. 140lbs is amazing. But, to have lost that much and still be over 300lbs. Wow.
* Kristin's hair. Jeepers! What is that bright glow on the stage?
* Joelle talking. Ever. Someone just cut out her voice box please. Does she ever make any sense?
* Bringing in those two girls from next season and having America vote for one of them. This was totally just unnecessary fluff. And kind of rude to the girls. Drag them up there and make them workout for America... And could anyone really tell them apart?
* Helen. She looked unhealthy. Her face looked gaunt. Her body looked rather skeleton-esque. For a 48-year old woman that is 5'6", 117lbs is just too skinny. She is the same height as I am, and I weighed more than that when I graduated from high school and I was still a twiggy 1/2 child. I guess she did what she had to win (Reuter's math was right on). But, I'm really hoping she left the live finale and went and ate a freakin' steak or something. Geesh.


The week of finales continues tonight with LOST! I am so SO sad to see LOST wrap up for the season. Love that show!!!
