I bet they could have made this an hour and a half or two hours if they didn't do all this extra stuff.

The only issues I've had with the finales in the past is that they never had time to interview the winner. Instead of adding an hour, they should have cut some flashbacks and kept it at two hours

There is over half an hour left. Why drag this out any further?

Agreed. Someone who has connections should tell BL to actually interview the winner. It's like 30 seconds from 8:00 they say the winner and then watch next season and that's it.

Yeah it's dragged out but yet Ali is rushing it. It's so ironic.

Great job for both of them. I'm sad to say but I am glad the ronfather's gameplay didn't work.

I am tired of hearing about age. And I think Ali just cursed Tara. I really hope she pulls this out because I admire her tenacity

Helen is almost too skinny. Her BMI is now 18.9 and healthy is 18.5-24.9. Under that is underweight I think or at least for adults because according to my Wii my BMI is like 17.5 or something and I'm perfectly healthy.

And extra hour and still no interview.

Congrats to Helen. And I am very proud of Tara. So close. It was really a close finale all around

BMI is a good measure for populations as a whole, but loses value when applied to individuals.

I can't believe that she beat Tara!

What was that loud noise at the end? Never heard that before and it made Ali jump a little. Funny thing is Ali got cut off at the end here.

Ohh.. now I know what it was. Conferri (spelling) gun. If Ali didn't do all that talking before Tara got on the scale, she wouldn't have got cut off at the end.

What is after BL? It can't be more important; BL gets in the top 3 ratings or THE TOP rating for NBC usually for unless it was Law and Order: SUI or whatever it's called because that's about the only thing that beats it. And it was the FINALE. It should have the power to go a few extra minutes.

"The Biggest Loser video game will help Nintendo players everywhere achieve that same success at home. The video game offers fun, innovative work-out routines and functions as a complete, personalized health and fitness experience, giving players the tools they need to change their bodies and change their lives."

"The Biggest Loser video game incorporates years of research and proven results taken from The Biggest Loser television show. This program offers personalized fitness and nutrition goals to give players the tools they need to lose weight and keep it off. "

"We are really proud to be able to introduce this video game as part of the great line of product affiliated with 'The Biggest Loser,'" said Kim Niemi, Senior Vice President, NBC Universal Television, DVD, Music and Consumer Products Group. "This video game presents an opportunity for the whole family to exercise and get fit, while having fun together."

About The Biggest Loser Video Game
The Biggest Loser video game is a fun and engaging way for players to get in shape and maintain their ideal fitness. Set at The Biggest Loser ranch, players can take The Biggest Loser challenge and compete in 4, 8 or 12 week programs against former contestants from the television show, or workout with a friend to form a support system to see who really is The Biggest Loser. Players will work-out to a series of structured routines with special weekly challenges, weigh-ins and eliminations, or they can even create their own workouts. Workouts include upper, lower and core body exercises, as well as cardio and yoga exercises. Progress is documented on a calendar that keeps track of in-game achievements, upcoming training and weigh-in dates. Players can also receive credit for any progress made while not playing the video game, such as going for a walk or a bike ride.

The video game also features 50 healthy recipes from the BiggestLoserClub.com and The New York Times best-selling book series The Biggest Loser to help users learn how to eat right for optimal weight loss. Throughout the Wii workout program, suggestions and tips from contestants and trainers will also help guide players as they transform their lives via diet and exercise. The video game also features an interactive calorie counter that tracks what players are eating and recommends their daily intake based on individual goals.

When paired together, the Wii and Nintendo DS games become powerful training partners with the Nintendo DS serving as a portable tool that can be used to count calories, as well as serve up healthy recipe suggestions on the go. Players can take their 'trainer' with them for food, exercise and diet tips that encourage them to stick to their fitness goals no matter where they are.
