The Biggest Loser

Hi

This has probably been asked already but I couldn't find anything on it.
I was just wondering if Living TV have any plans to show another Biggest Loser whether it be US or UK.
I know they have had another season in the USA so how come we haven't seen it over here.

    Living TV no longer have the rights to the show (US, Aus or UK).
    No other stations look likely to pick it up either (strange since it gets millions of viewers on prime time network TV in USA and Australia!)

    I've resorted to downloading them when they are shown in the US, I think there's been 6 US seasons and 3 Australian seasons (Aus season 1 was shown on living), have seen all the US ones and upto season 2 of the Aus ones (the Aus ones are on every night so there's close to 70 episodes per season, some 23 minutes long, some 40 minutes and occasionally some over an hour) and will watch season 3 over this summer

    have a look here:http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/tv/blog/tubetalk/?page=3 (long question near the bottom from "Mick")

    The first two episodes of a new (to me anyway) US series is on Sky Anytime at the mo. It's based on pairs rather than the traditional teams. It starts next week on Sky Real Lives channel 253.
    Apologies if this isn't a new series:o
