Tonight on NBC The Biggest Loser returns with an all new Thursday October 16, season 16 episode 6 called “The Tailegate.” On tonight’s episode the contestants face a tailgating challenge, where they are tempted with high-calorie comfort foods. Later, a player discusses emotional issues with his trainer; and Bob receives a gift from a “Comeback Canyon” contestant.
On the last episode all athletes dreaded the thought of being benched or sidelined from a game, and the challenge gave the winning team the power to sideline one player from an opposing team so their weight wouldn’t count at the weigh in. And the challenge came with high anxiety as the players were suspended in the air racing to cross a canyon and put together a puzzle when they were done. Everyone had to step it up this week to avoid the dreaded red line elimination, because they wouldn’t know which player was chosen to sit out until they got to the scale. Did you watch the last episode? If you missed it, we have a full and detailed recap right here for you.
On tonight’s episode the contestants return to the Los Angeles Coliseum this week, where their journey began, to face their first temptation – a tailgating challenge. Each player enters a tent filled with stadium food favorites, and has to decide whether to consume the high-calorie food and possibly win the coveted prize of immunity, or walk away from the temptation eating nothing. Later, one player opens up to his trainer about issues from childhood that have continue to take an emotional toll, while one of Bob’s ‘Comeback Canyon’ contestants gives him a very special gift. Then a red line at the weigh-in sends one contestant from the ranch to a surprise second chance at Comeback Canyon, while one of Bob’s two eliminated contestants there heads home for good.
