My thoughts exactly, but I'm hooked now and have to see how it all turns out.

Mine as well, the show is great! I was hoping the vegan diet would be better.

How many people are going to tune in each week to a show where the emphasis is on cutting calories, a proper diet, and exercise?

Not many, I think.
LOL The Biggest Loser might disagree with that opinion.

I would argue that the Biggest Loser was not about losing weight the healthy way - but by any means possible.

I couldn't watch the Biggest Loser show, and I'm not a fan of "reality" shows in general - but the Shaun T show is my new guilty pleasure.

I don't like the personality of the guy in the yellow shirt.

I am looking forward to checking this out when I get back from vacation. I really like Abel James as well. He has a great health podcast and it's not just paleo stuff... he has guests on that talk about all kinds of things. Great podcast and he is a great host/interviewer and seems really nice, which is part of the appeal.

Oh I know. I hate The Biggest Loser and haven't watched since season 2. But it is - at its core - a show about cutting calories, eating properly (aka: not fatty junk foods) and exercise. They just take those factors to such extreme levels that it makes it (imo) not healthy.

Ugh! I can't stand that Clean Mama "trainer" and I can't believe she threw her contestant under the bus like that!
