Casting Call For New TV Weight Loss Show

Ricochet Television needs television weight loss show contestants

Following in the footsteps of the hit NBC weight loss reality show "The Biggest Loser" comes another brand new major network weight loss television show from the producers of "SUPERNANNY!" The name of the show has not been released yet, but this program is set to air on one of the major networks probably this Fall. WOW, what an opportunity!

If you are at least 21 years old, have 50+ pounds to lose, can take up to 10 consecutive weeks away from your normal life, and think you have what it takes to lose lots of weight on national television with the chance to also win a HUGE cash prize while shedding the pounds, then you need to submit the following ASAP to the producers of this show:

1. Complete this application and write legibly
2. Read this eligibility form
3. Take 2 digital photos of yourself (face and full body) with the date taken
4. E-mail these to newprograms@ricochettelevision.com
5. Record a 5-minute video using these guidelines
6. Label your video with your name, address, and phone number
7. Mail in a securely packaged envelope to:

New Show Casting
Ricochet Television
3800 Barham Blvd., Ste. 210
Los Angeles, CA 90068

(Keep in mind that what you submit to Ricochet becomes their property)

Once you complete this process, it's time to wait and see if you are selected for the next round of the process. Those select few will be flown out to Los Angeles for a series of interviews with the producers. The finalists will be required to fill out release paperwork and undergo medical examinations prior to being allowed to appear on the show.

I can tell you now that they are looking for people who exhibit not just a personality that will make for compelling television, but also a sincere dedication and commitment to SERIOUSLY lose weight for good. It makes them look good if the people who come on the show actually lose weight. Let the REAL YOU come shining through in the video and set yourself apart from the rest.

There is only a small window of opportunity to apply for this show as the application process will be whittled down very quickly among the fairly small pool of potential contestants. My blog is one of only a handful of places they have advertised about this show, so don't let this chance pass you by. In other words, YOU HAVE AN EXCELLENT SHOT to be on TV, so make the most of it! Try to have it all done by THIS weekend and you should be good to go!

Other than the video, the application itself (which is VERY similar to the one I highlighted at my blog from "The Biggest Loser") is where you can give the producers a real sense of who you are as a person. Answer every question as openly and honestly as possible so they can get to know you like your friends and family know you. Don't be fake or provide what you think they want to hear. Just be YOU!

As for the show itself, you WILL work your tail off as they require you to "be willing and able to participate in potentially strenuous physical activities." I mean DUH! Those "Biggest Loser" contestants workout for hours on end every single day on that show, so this one will be no different.

If you have any questions about the application process, then please don't hesitate to e-mail the Casting Associate Jen Harding for assistance. GOOD LUCK everyone and let me know if you applied and get cast for the show. How neat would that be? Remember us "little" people when you become famous. :D
