The wonder of life itself, not to mention the opportunity to embarrass your child for a lifetime. Each week, a man or a woman looking for love is chained to four strangers of the opposite sex for four days. At the end of each day, the contestant chooses to let one person go, until he or she is shackled to only one. Twelve dieters are locked in a house full of junk food with 37 cameras filming them. The six men and six women compete to see who can lose the most weight.
Dieters dine on low-calorie meals prepared by a celebrity chef and work out three times a day.
These workouts are televised. Every week, a contestant who has lost the least amount of weight is kicked off the show. When only four remain, viewers then vote for one male and one female winner. Singles are matched up on blind dates, but this time with a twist. Without telling the contestants, producers match up the most incompatible people they can find and then watch the fireworks explode.
