CrazyInAlabama April 20 Share April 20 (edited) First aired 24 April 2024 (only the supersized with bonus scenes was new, the rest aired with the One-Ton Family season several years ago). Together weighing more than a ton, siblings Roshanda, Brandie, and Clarence set out to lose weight as a family. But the all-for-one approach may be hurting more than it helps when each of them shows signs of heading in the wrong direction after surgery. Dr. Now is listed as a participant, but Dr. Mike Dow is the narrator. (I'm suspicious this is a recut of the WATN about the family from their original episode which was several parts). The show says 1 year earlier, so this is from a few seasons ago, I'm guessing the ending episode of the short series about the Perrio family. Edited April 26 by CrazyInAlabama 2 Link to comment

The TV listings site I use (zap2it) says season 7... Quote My 600-Lb. Life: Where Are They Now? Supersized: One-Ton Family SEASON 7, NEW 8:00 PM ON TLCHD 28 • TV-14 • STEREO With bonus scenes; together weighing more than a ton, siblings Roshanda, Brandie and Clarence set out to lose weight as a family, but the all-for-one approach may be hurting more than it helps. Which makes me wonder how much "new" it is. 2 Link to comment

It seems they have enough material in those old shows to "slice and dice" through editing and create many "new" episodes. I think I watched a few episodes in the beginning, but the cast didn't really interest me so I stopped watching. 3 Link to comment
Pi237 April 23 Share April 23 There’s also a new series Quarter Ton Teen on A&E. First episode is a 13 year old who said she weighs over 400lbs. Poor kid. I Dont see a topic for it, but I won’t snark on kids anyway. 3 Link to comment

No, this is not a show that I would want to snark on as it brings back memories of how badly I was teased when I was chunkier (never as large or treated as bad as these teens though). BTW, this teen weighs 438. 3 Link to comment

And the TLC site says Diana episode from Season 7. So I have no idea what we will actually see? But I guess I will tune in just in case! 2 Link to comment
CrazyInAlabama April 25 Author Share April 25 (edited) This is really Season 7, and apparently a reairing of the ending episode of the Perrio family short series. Roshanda worried me, with her surgical risks. Brandie, and Clarence were in a better place. But Brandie and Clarence gave up. I love when Clarence said the trio had loss almost 700 lbs. Roshanda is the only one without the initial surgery yet, and Clarence and Brandie are trying to qualify for skin removal. Clarence was the one who was very worried about surgery, because of his mother's death during or right after surgery. This episode had the other doctor helping Dr. Now, but that doctor has since taken another hospital management job. This is definitely a recut rerun, I remember the music scenes with Brandie. The update at the end from several years ago was only hopeful for Roshanda, Brandie and Clarence claim to still be losing, but I doubt it.

There was little snarkportunity between the youthful poundticipant and the presented struggle. 5 Link to comment
CrazyInAlabama April 25 Author Share April 25 I was hoping for a better outcome for the Perrios. Who would have thought Roshanda would be the most dedicated one. Clarence is not going to succeed with doing the program his way. Brandie is totally out of control, and I have no hope for her. 5 Link to comment
ams1001 April 25 Share April 25 I ended up turning this one off. I had zero attention span to devote to it. Didn't even move my laptop from the table (where if I'm sitting properly in my chair my back is to the TV). 4 Link to comment
AZChristian April 25 Share April 25 How do they get a professional musician to tell someone their music is awful? Brandie is/was delusional about her "art" and her "career." 3 Link to comment
CrazyInAlabama April 26 Author Share April 26 (edited) Sounds like a job for Simon Cowell. I keep wondering what kind of venues Brandie is touring with her performances, and if it's a paying performance, or something else. I wonder how the trio are really doing now? After more reseach, this episode should be WATN S07.E09. Edited Wednesday at 10:56 PM by CrazyInAlabama 2 Link to comment
