Is it just me or do they purposely pick at least one person that is so annoying?

I haven't watched for awhile but for season 10, which I've been watching due to missing it last year and Brenden annoys the crap out of me. The season before that it was couples and that red couple.... Melissa was always talking like she was chewing her face. I just wonder if they throw people like that in there to shake things up.
There will always be game players, but seriously.... These people make enemies early and end up voted off in most instances.... Big surprise! NOT!

I don't think they throw them in but there are just some who want to be the big ME person. They have attitude that is rude and nasty and there is no good reason other than either a personal pitty party poor me I cannot be responsible for how I got this way or else they think they should win at all costs and it is about the money not losing weight. Money is nice it can help but the point like Bob and Jillian over and over point out. They are there first and foremost to lose weight and learn how to keep it off. I want to go on the show. I applied once over a year ago did not get picked. Right after that our family lost our four year old grandson/son in a tragic auto accident. So have not been doing much to re-apply. But I am getting back to my goal to lose weight and keep it off. I gained about 13 lbs of 38 I lost partly due to I injured my left knee and was on crutches for 4 months. January 3rd Hubby, myself, my son and his fiancee and my brother and sister in law are starting recreational aquatic aerobic fitness class. That is how I lost the weight before and it worked well. Getting back to that so come spring I can walk with hubby and do more. I have watched most the shows and you are right there is always one or two who are just down right mean spirited and or lazy.

I am so sorry to hear about your grandson! I hate when stuff like that happens. Its nice that you have so much familial support in your weight loss efforts.

I believe I've actually watched only 3 full seasons. Season 8 it was Tracey who got on everyone's nerves. Season 9 was Melissa.. just her, not so much her husband.
This season it seemed there were a lot of game players, but I agree Brandon was the worst. Frado was a big game player too, but I still liked him better than Brandon. I was so mad that Elizabeth kept being saved over and over.. and she wasn't trying very hard to lose the weight at all. She didn't deserve to be there, and the people that were kicked off because she was saved certainly worked hard to be there. I almost wish every elimination was left up to America's votes instead of allowing the players to vote.. or maybe a 50/50, like our votes would count for half every week.

Melissa has to be my most irritating contestant. I really did not care for her at all. Right up until she got voted off the final time... I couldn't even stand to hear her voice! I was outraged when she got back on the show.
I liked Elizabeth. Its hard to push your body as hard as the others did when you have asthma. I know because I have it and too much exertion and I'm left gasping and feeling like my lungs are going to burn up. I thought she did very well considering. And she never gave up. So I thought she did good.

I have often wondered that myself, and wonder who it will be this next season getting ready to start Jan. 4th. I do admit that Melissa was very annoying, but to me Brandon was worse. I absolutely was very Glad to hear when he got knocked off and to me I cannot imagine him being able to keep off the weight at all, and having to many of the other players wanting to keep in contact with him. Personally it would be nice if people could only concentrate on weight loss, and not everything else and let this show get back to being Fun.

Personally I did not like him. He is one of those contestants who you expect to see in a couple of yrs. weighing more than they did before the Show ever started and Happy with themselves, or dying at an early age just because of their size.

Well I was watching after show interviews and even Alison said that she thought there was more game-play this season than any other. And I believe thats all Brendan's fault. It got him pretty far though I guess. It was too bad he had to fall below the red line... Really it was....

Well, you gotta remember that this is television, and if it's boring, no one will be interesting. So of course they add annoying people like that to spice it up, to make it interesting. I didn't think so much that Brendan was annoying, but I thought Burgandy was. She was constantly nagging about everyone and it wasn't really enjoyable watching her while doing that.
Who do you think besides Brendan was annoying?

I was highly upset about Tina's attitude. I can't remember who got voted off instead of her the week she decided she was going to quit... Burgandy I think... But I thought that was wrong. Very wrong. Not that I cared who got voted out, but it was just dirty pool.
