Do TV shows like the biggest loser and celebrity fit club help people loose weight at home????

We can say this a s a burning question. Before answering it, Firstly the point of view is that are these daily soaps are created for making peopleaware about their health and educating them or they are just a way to entertain & earn. obviously in todays world, money makes sale everything.

When we see this soaps, do you ever get informed about how to loose weight instead this shows are more intrested in creating some scandals among the team members to get more publicity. Of one hour shows, approx 20 mins is wasted in advertisements, 10 mins are taken by hosts, 25 mins covering scandals, games, etc other socialistic stuff among team and only five minutes hardly spared about informing people how to loose weight...

When you entertain a person for 55 mins and spending hardly less than 5 min in informing people about how to loose weight, how can you expect people would like to hear any such things even if it is beneficial for them, coz their mind leads them in to enjoying mood as their mind was captured by 55 mins of entertainment. So when you are enjoying who duffer would like to hear some serious talk even for a minute.

So, such shows are less of informational and more of entertainment purpose. Bringing celebrities in shows only provide entertainment and people see it for entertainment purpose only. People themselves know that this show is only for entertainment purpose. They see that show just for entertainment butot for education.

In short, giving less than 5 min to education part is not at all fair. Of course, there can be positive effect too. The points which i have noted as negative can work as positive side for people too. You may be thinking that i am being hypocrite now. but my way of thinking is such. As i believe 2 things:

  • Every coin has two sides
  • Not all fingers are same in your hand

There are certain class ofpeople who are very celebrity crazy who can do whatever their favourite celebrity says and uses whatever their fav celebrity promotes. Also nothing can be said about people's psychlogy in general. Each have different points of view as i described earlier.

but Still i beleive such shows are purely for entertainment purpose and Majority of people are hardly interested in learing something in a situation which i described above. Of course exceptions are there.

Thats called difference bettween Reel & Reality
