ABC is developing a variation on The Biggest Loser called Obese for people pursuing extreme weight-loss. Perfect. We’re gonna need a bigger pair of Terrible Idea Jeans! Get it? Bigger? Because of fat.

  1. I think this is the way that all tv show naming should go in the future. How did no one think of this sooner? I can’t wait until the TV guide only has listings like “Asshole Doctor,” “Lawyers,” Fat Husband,” “Fat Husband (animated),” “Sexy Doctors,” “Ugly People” (formerly “the news”), “Singing” and “Bad People” (formerly “Real Housewives.”

    • They might have to come up with some sort of numbering system… “Fat Husband 1″, “Fat Husband 2″, “Guy with Special Perceptive Power 7″… other than that, I don’t see a problem with this system.

  2. I fear that even if we increase the number of weight loss competition “reality” shows by 100%, most Americans will still be fat and lazy. :(

  3. I think the last statement should read, “Because of America fat.” I don’t see weight loss reality shows from any other country in the world. America, land of the free, home of generations of people putting food on their families.

  4. God could I go for a mayonegg

  5. Oh man, I read this quick and first thought that they would be pursuing an extreme weight. They should have a show where everybody starts at 165 lbs and the first to 300 wins.

  6. Isn’t “the Biggest Loser” already for *extreme* weight loss? Some of the contestants have 200+ lbs to lose.

    Now on to more important questions – what nationwide gym we viewers see 20 ads for in every camera angle on Obese?

  7. “Terrible Idea Jeans” – do Winkerz even come in XXXXXXXXXL?
