Week 5: Please write down who you think will survive this week? Miggy 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) NO Q2: Will the contestants dress up in any kind of sports uniform (football/basketball/baseball/etc.) for a challenge? yes/no (15pts) YES Q3: A tried and true favorite -- How many times will Alison Sweeney say "Congratulations" during the weigh in process? F) 6 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) B) Blue

Congrats to last week's winners (and Jimmer really does run "the board" doesn't he ) and I am still having a good laugh over TC's hilarious recap. Allison really has her soap opera "Austin don't leave me" look in that last solo picture of her!! LOL! I would love an American Idol game, a great bonus question would be how many times Simon gives America the finger. And darn, just think of all the great Paula questions we could have had if she were still around! Q#1 - Yes Q#2 - No Q#3 - J (10+) Bonus Question - let the Sunshine in! Yellow

Well of course there were no uniforms despite it being a football themed comp. They blew the budget feeding all those people Subway last week.

I counted 12 "congratulations" during the regular weigh in. Not sure if you planned to count other parts of the show OR the first weigh in of the returning pairs.. she may have congratulated someone. But J 10 or more has to be the right answer. (unfortunately for me) I forgot to look for a book.. don't think I saw one but who knows. At least they didn't give them jerseys this year, just helmets.. Miggy is still there and yellow team came back.

It's hard to catch the congrats while watching but I definitely heard one before yellow and blue returned. And yellow and blue each got a congrat. Then I caught 3 more at the weigh in. Since I was focusing on the show and not the congrats, I was pretty sure I must have missed some. So I am hoping for an official count 10+ Especially since I am really stinking at the questions in general.

Yeah, I'm sure.. but it is up to TC if he meant the whole show or during weigh in.. but she maxed out as far as the game goes, just during the weigh ins! She was congratulating right, left and center in some cases!

This was a very good week for the Allymination Game because nobody was Allyminated AND we have a Green Light Special for the second straight Week! This one's for you, SpongeBob, Congratulations!
Green Light Special!!! You've also tied Jimmer for the Overall lead at 160! Congrats SpongeBob and Jimmer Here is the chart:
Since the bonus question was this week, I put the 5pt survivor bonus with it for those still in the Allymination branch of the game. Also, we're getting to the point in the elimination process that things could get confusing as to who is elligible to pick, so I am including this quicksee reference from now on, too:
Here's this week's visual confirmation of the 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) This one was a hit and miss for me, I coulda swore for the last few weeks they were really pushing those BL books, but the closest we got was a sly product placement during Bob's Jenny-O Turkey Time Talk. Here are Sunshine and Andrea, reacting to the suggestion that they're gonna have Jenny-O turkey instead of some Yoplait Smoothies:
The answer to Q1 is No. ------------ Q2: Will the contestants dress up in any kind of sports uniform(football/basketball/baseball/etc.) for a challenge? yes/no (15pts) This one was a closer call, with the first competition being a football-related activity, Alison did mention the Superbowl, but the closest they got to uniforms was a generic helmet, here modeled by the lovely Stephanie in mid-grunt:
The answer to Q2 is No. -------------- 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 Alison was definitely on her Congrats kick tonight! She was giving credit, as Sea put it, 'right left and center'!! I'm only counting the Congrats that were during the weigh ins at the end of the show, to determine elimination. They don't have audio or video clip uploads here at TVCH so here are some cute pics of Alison giving us her closest resemblance to classic emoticons accompanying each congrats, mind you they are not when she said the congrats, only her interpretation of the smiley above. 1. Wow, we look forward to seeing that. Congratulations O'Neal. Here is Alison doing her pattented smiley. :
2. Michael you got it in ya. Congratulations, good job tonight. Here is our dear host in a sad mood.
3. Melissa, congratulations, you are under 200. She can also be suspicious at times.
4. So congratulations pink team, with one team below you, you are safe... But then she can break out into delightful laughter!
5. Congratulations Daris, you lost enough weight on your own to keep the orange team safe tonight. But then she can snap right back into shocked dismay.
6. ...And it kept the orange team safe, so congratulations you guys. Ever the professional, when necessary, she can fake smile, but you know her heart isn't into it.
7. Congratulations orange team, you are definitely safe from elimination tonight. At any time, she can unleash the big guns and give you the puppy eyes.
8. Definitely a cause for celebration, you're here for another week, congratulations Stephanie... Alison can be curious, too, as she looks around corners for contestants and such.
9. Congratulations [Stephanie], that is enough to keep you here on campus, you are definitely safe from elimination tonight As well as give you that sincere good ol' fashion 'smile' smile.
10. Congratulations grey team, with two teams below you, you are definitely safe from elimination. Sometimes there are surprises and a simple shrug can do the trick.
11. Congratulations black team, with one team below you, that is definitely enough to keep you here for one more week. Other times, it just pays to know how to whistle like a longshoreman.
12. Miggy, congratulations you've lost 5 pounds this week... But in the end, it is always good to know when to take a bow and be gracious in your gratitude.
That makes twelve times she said it, and that was only at the final weigh ins, she said it a few times with the blue/yellow weigh ins and a couple times just for practice in competition. The answer to Q3 is J) 10 or more, because she is very emphatic about giving credit and being polite -------------- Extra Bonus Q: Which team will make it back to the ranch? (25pts) A) Yellow B) Blue The blue team deserves some credit:
But it was the yellow team that danced their way onto the ranch:
The answer to Bonus Q is A) Yellow ------------- So that was it for the Trivia, there were a couple weird things that happened, like the discovery of a spy cam on campus that is directly linked to a heat seeking missle trained at the contestant's beds in case anyone attempts some midnight snackin':
or swimming, for that matter?:
oh, and also a couple of the contestants are actually robot androids :
but I digress... I was thinking of posting the Bob and Melissa journey of discovery in pain and secret hatred and friendship and hugs, but I will do it in a different post, as an addendum. I leave you with a disturbing image of Bob doing the Captain Morgan stance as he peruses the Yoplait Smoothie mix, his newest Muse of infotainment merch, in a subconscious way, he is telling Stephanie and Sam to ditch this diet thing and have some rum and berry coladas with him out near poolside [before the rocket attacks get 'em, of course]!
