Tonight “The Biggest Loser” returns for its 11th season with Alison Sweeney again as the host of this reality show in which contestants compete to lose the most weight and win a cash prize with the help of trainers. In the first episode tonight the eleven family and friend two person teams immediately have to compete with each other in a 5k run on a treadmill; After they finish the contestants have to make a game changing decision in a new twist to the show as they have to either pick between current trainers to help them lose weight Bob Harper and Jillian Michaels or a new pair of trainers. The obvious choice would be to pick Bob and Jillian who have helped the contestants in the past and are known to the contestants but if they do they will be at a disadvantage because of this seasons twist. If they pick Bob and Jillian they will work out at the ranch if they pick the new trainers they will work out at a secret location. It’s interesting that five of the teams decide to go with the new trainers while six teams decide to stay at the ranch with Bob and Jillian. The twist is that the contestants that pick the new trainers get four weeks of immunity which is huge and the contestants that go with Bob and Jillian could go home after only one week. Long running reality shows have to have new twists to keep their audience coming back and this one is big and should be interesting to see how both teams react when they find out.
