    Does "The Biggest Loser" need Jillian Michaels to survive?

    The amazing, talented writer, Jen Wielgus, of the PhillyBurbs.com weighs-in:   ;0)
    "Ever since the ladies at my gym found out I have a "Biggest Loser" blog, they've been tuning in to the show on Tuesday nights. The No. 1 comment I hear from them is (I'm paraphrasing): "Oh my God, Dolvett!" And then, they stand there slack-jawed, which I take to mean they like looking at him.  So it's funny to see this Reuters story, floating the possibility of Jillian Michaels returning to the ranch. Since she's off The Doctors,....   To continue reading, click here.
    What do you think?  Does the Biggest Loser need Jillian to survive?

    Jillian Michaels is "off" the Doctors?

    Michael Starr of the NYPost writes on 11am, January 4, 2012 exclusive that "Jillian Michaels is out as a co-host of “The Doctors” after half a season on the hit syndicated daytime show." He cites inside information that they felt she  “wasn’t a good fit."  He goes on to write, (although I can't find the source): 
    MICHAELS: “Doctor” is out.

    “Jillian has contributed greatly to our show this season, and we value her talent and insight as she has inspired countless people to improve their lives,” the show said in a statement. “Although it wasn’t the fit we both hoped for . . . Jillian will always be a part of ‘The Doctors’ family.”

    and says Jillian responded,  “I have enjoyed my time on the show and the opportunity it provided me in my mission to help others improve their lives."

    Thus far, Jillian has not referenced this article and made mention of a departure on her personal Twitter or Facebook pages.

    Weird.

    So, do you think she'll pop back up in the new season of Biggest Loser?  Per Kimberly Potts at "The Wrap", Jillian's camp says, "We never say never" on Wednesday...


    Hmmmmmm. Interrresting, no?!
