Yeah I don’t think it can pull similar figures to Survivor up against MKR. But it probably isn’t the worst decision from ten. The thing with The Biggest Loser is that it makes money. It has a stack of advertisers and the issue surrounding it was the cost. But with Michelle Bridges out and only 2 trainers, instead of 4, the costs are less.

Exactly. It would be cheap to make and would make more revenue than a lot of other shows. It was getting a high as 800k towards the end of last year (yes that was a rare occasion but it happened time to time… eg [here](http://www.news.com.au/national/breaking-news/tbl-families-starts-to-find-its-audience/news-story/666f46c1e83ec37b55eb218dc547e722)) so I wouldn’t write it completely off.

This show will probably pull 300k.

Goodnight Ten in 2017.

Yeah I don’t see high hopes for it. But if it airs Wednesday-Friday it could do ok at around 500-600k. Which isn’t actually ok. But it would free Living Room to go to 8:30 which provides new programming on Friday.

Might not. But it isn’t like Ten haven’t had reality at 7:30 on a Friday before… Its a suggestion. Don’t have to like it. Just would do better than Have You Been Paying Attention encores and do the same sort of figures it gets at 7:30 anyway.

The logo and image used in one of the Ten releases shows a fit looking lady stretching her leg. It actually looks really fresh and a real move away from an obesity focus. I like the concept at a high level of a more fitness and health focused show but I’m wondering if they should have removed The Big Loser branding altogether and just called it ‘Transformed’ if it really is going to be a very different show.

A little bit more info on the Biggest Loser Transformed. The article also reveals that the winner will be viewer voted in a new format live finale.

I’m guessing having contestants with less weight equates to a shorter season as well.

Tiff Kavalee has her own training program, heard a few ads for it on radio.

Not a bad promo either.

Surprised it didn’t feature the host, Fiona Falkiner.

It is only 6 weeks away. They promoted Celebrity back in December. But maybe a tad early.

I doubt they’re about to start pumping out the promos for it, but makes sense to run a sneak peak during the premiere when a lot of people would ideally be watching.
