ACK, it could be too late but don't think any results have aired anywhere and certainly nothing at airs here for another 2.5 hours. Week 4: Melissa will survive (hmm and if she doesn't I'll be happy in defeat) Q1: No, still too many mouths to feed.. Q2: Yes? I never notice what she wears.. Q3: H Red Team (drama follows them everywhere)

I can't believe it either! I thought it was way too early for Subway.

Yes when they were at the challenge, she had on jeans. It was a little hard to tell for a while, but they finally got a good shot of her.

They looked like jeans.. or well structured sweats in jean color. Both outfits. And yeah, Subway.. And Red team first, Green team last, so D or H are correct.

No Subway for me. I like TOGOs better. Tonight I had two little pulled pork sliders that I brought home leftover from BJ's Brewhouse.

I can't believe I was getting more invested in the results for this game and, again, thought "YES" when I saw the Red team weighing first. This is a great game.

LOL me too Kona. At first I was so aggravated that they won immunity again. And that it was mostly a chance game to win it. Then it dawned on me that means they weigh in first. And it eased the sting a bit. I agree this is so much fun. Last week I was offline most of the week. I wrote down my weight picks and had them out when I was watching the show. It is such a thrill to nail a weight dead on.

Kona, so did I! Actually as soon as I saw the Red team winning immunity.. while I was completely bummed, I also said YES because that meant they would likely weigh in first. I need to write down my picks.. I tend to forget them and I don't dare venture into the threads once I start watching .. for some reason I do want to watch and not be spoiled, but I sure do look to see if my picks were okay.

So this is a little late, hope to get back on track and have these out to you regularly the next day after the show. A few notes on how things are going, we had our first green light specials this week, with Konamouse and Jimmer running the board and getting all 50 of their trivia points! Congratulations!
Green Light Specials!! Another congrat to Jimmer again for being this week's Trivia King with 110 pts! So here's the chart:
I'm sorry to say that Sea was disqualified from the Allymination Game for not getting her entry in before the deadline, but she does pass through to the Trivia Contest in good shape, in which she is in a dead heat with Gumby, who also passed through with 95 pts, very close to the leaders, Jimmer and Kona. Alison says with much consternation:
"I'm sorry Seamonkey, Gumby, you have both been Allyminated" Let's give a hearty toast to both of them! Cheers all around!!!
   as we send them through the portal to a not too distant place... Bye Seamonkey!
Bye Gumby!
And now let's give a hearty 'Welcome!' to the new residents of the rennovated Biggest Loser Trivial Ranch... Alison wants to say 'Howdy':
So, Seamonkey and Gumby, it is here where you can meet up with such great contestants as Beachcomber and Mysti who will assuredly make room on their pillows for y'all for the Allymination Trivia Queen/King Challenge!!
---------- Before we do visual confirmations of the Trivia Questions, there is still the unresolved issue of last week's recap. As a substitute for the spilt-blood-on-the-set question, I did a rehash of Melissa's meltdown during the weigh in, which was like a virtual emotional bloodbath. I think it only fair that we show the thrilling conclusion, or dare I say denouement of so much fallout. Here is my account... Bob innocently tried to have a pow wow with Melissa and Lance to clear the air:
AND THEN you called me a liar!!:
but it just makes no sense, please let me expl..:
TWO weeks in a row!!!!:
Ok, what I'm real good at is moving forwa...:
I've lost all respect for you, $@#*@&! :
Then later on, Lance gives Jillian the 'hand' and says he doesn't want to train with her:
She gets verklempt:
She looks off camera for the go ahead to make him cry:
Then in a shocking turn of events she goes off script and strolls off into the wilderness:
She was last spotted doing laps in the Biggest Loser parking lot, laughing histerically:
Ok, thank you for letting me go off script and tie up that loose end from last week. Now, on to the Trivia Q's visual resolutions! ---------- Q1: Will the 'Subway' be making a 'stop' at the Biggest Loser 'station' this week?? [Subway Sandwich consummation, mention or visitation by contestants] yes/no (10pts) Wallah!:
As the confirmation, I give you my one and only showcrush for the season, Stephanie [she is so cute! I would eat Subway with her any day of the week...]:
And as a final shot, we have Bob, who is practically glowing at this point, being denied any promo work the week prior, is now truly in an overwhelmed fashion, munching on a Subway apple slice:
The answer to Q1 is yes. ------ Q2: Will Alison Sweeney wear blue jeans this episode? [khakis don't count!] (15pts) The cuteness that is Alison scoffs with her beaming smile at that Q2 in her slim fitting blue jeans:
Here is Ms. Sweeney in pigtails just for fun (she's wearing jeans there, as well):
The answer to Q2 is yes. ------- Q3: Which team (or member of a team) will be first OR last to weigh in? [there are two right answers to this question, you only need to provide one] (20pts) Here is the first team to weigh in, wishing good will upon all:
Here's a picture of our dear moderator, Alison:
And here is the last team to weigh in:
Here is Melissa cussing them out for being last:
Here is Alison, with her now pattented, weather and time tested "what the fu.." look:
Miggy ain't happy:
Melissa tries to calm her down with a reassuring wink:
At this point, Ali is a mere spectator to the madness:
Then Migdalia gives her final farewells to the Red team :
[Please take extra note of the expressions of the pink team, who by this time are shellshocked and bewildered, as Sherry seems to have her catatonic stare down pat] At this point, I must infuse the goodness that is Alison Sweeney, look how all of this anger and bitterness makes Alison sad, look at her, she has such a good heart!
Here is some more, look at her hug Stephanie for her success! Do you see how much she cares and her compassion for them all?!?
The answer to Q3 is D and H. I bid you farewell with this final image, another shot of Alison and Stephanie hugging, yes, I must admit I focused in on this exchange, and yes they are the two hottest women of Biggest Loser and they were hugging and It Was Beautiful!, but in parting, they were saying something I wish to tell all of you:

Once again, sorry for getting this out to you so late. Week 5: Please write down who you think will survive this week? TRIVIA: Q1: Will someone be caught (innocently so, by the camera or inquiringly by another contestant or trainer) either handling or reading from a book that has Biggest Loser plastered all over it, ala BL cookbook or calorie counter, etc? yes/no (10pts) Q2: Will the contestants dress up in any kind of sports uniform (football/basketball/baseball/etc.) for a challenge? yes/no (15pts) Q3: A tried and true favorite -- How many times will Alison Sweeney say "Congratulations" during the weigh in process? A) 1 B) 2 C) 3 D) 4 E) 5 F) 6 G) 7 H) 8 I) 9 J) 10 or more, because she is very emphatic about giving credit and being polite Also, since we are getting down to that 30 day deadline for the two teams in limbo, I am introducing an Extra Bonus Question worth 25 pts, it may not be answered this week or next week, but soon enough: Extra Bonus Q: Which team will make it back to the ranch? (25pts) A) Yellow B) Blue [If they do something crazy like only let the daughters in, or only let one from each team, then we will suspend the question until the first one from the teams goes home and therefore the other team would be considered victorious.]

What a relief! I thought Melissa had grown a beard there, but it was just my demise graphically represented. Good going, Jimmer! And I love the TC recaps more than life it.. well okay, not THAT much, but more than watching the show itself, though since I do lots of pausing while capturing the weight losses and calculating the percentages (for some reason I do run the numbers, before Alli provides them) so I tend to see some great "expressions" and now I think that TC will surely make great use of some of those.. Hee!

TC, Sea told me how awesome you and this game are so I popped in to see and WOW!!! I love it! I love the funny way you post the results and answers! I may watch this show just so I can be in on your fun here. Not to join the game but possibly be a cheerleader. I think you should run a Survivor game

Thank you for the encouragement, Sea and Jimmer, and that is like the ultimate compliment, Pamy, that you would watch a show you normally wouldn't so you could be a part of this great environment here at the Allymination thread. All credit has to go toward the people at TAR thread, Karen and Whoami, who inspired me to start these games because they started theirs and I had so much fun watching that season of the amazing race because of it. Biggest Loser is quite unique in reality show tv in that it has very enthusiastic hosts and personnel (trainers) who are willing and able to cross promote and blend in advertisements and health advice, while trying to be covert and not being overly disturbing or fake. It is a fine line, and it can be hillarious at times. It is like a hybrid to a kind of infomercial, as well as an inspirational show that shows the struggles and triumphs of everyday people and what they have the potential for. This tension between the sincere and the solicitor can be funny at times. And as SpongeBob pointed out early on, they have a tendency to tease out the show and put in alot of stuff that seems repetitive or really show you the habits of the trainers/host or the editing staff quirks about how they present the show. I think they have a sense of humor about it, though, and it turns out feeling very dramatic yet they have fun with it. I don't know if Survivor is the same or if I can have that same kind of fun with it, but I can check it out and see what happens. The whole heroes vs. villains theme seems pretty cool. I do know, but I'm thinking about doing something with Big Brother, which is a favorite of mine and what drew me to TVCH recently, even though I've lurked previous years for Survivor years back, but remember the S2 BB lurking the most, especially the live feed thread!(those people are the heights of awesomeness). Also, American Idol is ripe for the Elimination Game format, but I'd wait till they get to the top 10 or 8 or whatever that is, maybe its 24? Top 24? I don't know if the Idol thread already has something like that going, but if it doesn't it should! Here are my picks for the week: WEEK 5: Miggy Q1: Yes Q2: Yes Q3: H (8) Extra-Sugar-Free-Sweet-Watermelon-Bonus Question: Yellow
