Biggest Loser... Literally!
Well, I suppose we should all be congratulating Adro for "winning" Australia's first series of Biggest Loser, the show that teaches everyone that if you can't loose 15kg in a week you deserve to be treated like crap by your teammates.
The reason I say "winning" is that some might question why exactly Adro made it into the final. Throughout the entire series of biggest loser, they did the standard vote-one-out-per-week, and once they threw out two at once.
So that begs the question, when they got down to the final three, how was it fair to bring everyone back into the house and end up selecting one person (Harry) to rejoin the competition? Make a note of the fact that they have been outside for several months in some cases, I'll come back to it.
So anyway, Harry comes back and whips everyone as he was only voted out by strategy and not by weight loss. Suddenly everyone is extremely resentful that he is here (the other three ACTIVELY snubbed him) and he decides to take the hard line that people are just upset because they know he is going to win.
Naturally, Harry doesn't go below the bottom line, and he is joined by Kristy who for some unknown reason has been awarded immunity indefinitely by the shows producers, and as a result Adro went home (as he was not just a bigger threat than Fiona, lets face it... he was the ONLY threat).
And then there were three... but what's this? Cheating in the house? It turns out Harry and a few others brought in Vitamin suppliments into the house, but the others there didn't have access to them. Lets ignore the fact that these people have had months of access to all sorts of stuff the housemates didn't, good and bad, but suddenly we are saying that some vitamins are going to help them to a miracle weight loss? So, what do they do? They invite Adro to come back to the competition! (Ummm... if it was really cheating why didn't they just kick Harry out?)
But you might think to yourselves, Adro snubbed Harry for reentering the competition, and generally made a big fuss about how unfair it was and how he didn't think anyone should have agreed, so surely he wouldn't say yes. No no, he is going to put his money where his mouth is, and make a point by refusing, right?
God no, he doesn't even blink before saying yes, and we are off to the final four for the first time in Biggest Loser's short short history. It was pretty close between Harry and Adro, but somehow Adro managed to drop just that little bit more and take the prize.
Of course, Wal is the actual winner as the person who lost the biggest percentage, but since this show should have been called the Biggest Backstabber rather than the Biggest Loser, he was thrown out the second he was eligible to be voted out.
