I watch it because of Damien.  The man inspires me.  He started the show at 216 kg.  Plenty of people would either be dead or bed-ridden at that sort of weight.  Instead he’s lost 41 kg and done it in the most humble and nicest of ways.

Yes, the show is filled with stupid challenges, and spends too long playing with the contestants minds when it should be concerned with weight loss.  And all that “… and the competitors will face a choice that will change the game forever…” or “and in a move they weren’t expecting, the game is about to be turned on its head” shit, drives me up the wall.

But ignore all that crap and watch it for Damien.  A man slowly, steadily and with great effort whose getting his life back.
