Another Fat Ass Reality Show

ABC is ripping off from the British yet again by making a reality show about overweight people walking far distances or something. The UK show was called Too Big to Walk? and brought together a group of people trying to lose weight, uniting them and following them as they walk 500 miles. Executive Producer, Nick Emerson says that the show is more positive than "The Biggest Loser." He said, “We think it’s the boldest weight-loss show to hit America. It feels very fresh and different. It’s not about being kept away from food and the rest of the world with a personal trainer and spending hours in the gym. It’s a bigger, more positive show.” Source
