Calling my daughter now to set my DVR!!!

Wow, I didn't know that being fit and healthy and having muscle is considered having a "freak physique". Not the best choice of words, E!.

**ISABELLE TURELL** · #6 08-19-2009, 09:30 PM

I agree.

Who is this going to star?

Lauren Powers is one of the women. I don't know who else.

I'm going to watch it, because I wouldn't miss anything about womens bodybuilding, figure and fitness on TV. That being said, this is E! and given the type of programs I've seen from them, I don't expect them to be painting the most positive image of female bbers. The "freak" term being used just alludes to that, and my prediction is that they will portray female bbers as such, with insinuation that it's obsessive or a disorder. E! does these "sexiest *instert category here* shows and they all tend to be ultra skinny model types. I'll also predict that if they don't come right out and mention steroids, it's going to be strongly hinted at as a major factor in "freakyness."

Even to look around their website it just seems like a lot of trash talking, gossip, and ridiculing celebs over their fashion sense. Can you tell I'm not a fan of E?

But! I hope I'm wrong... we'll see.

BTW... I want to be a "freak"

Siouxcountry · #9 08-19-2009, 11:57 PM

It will start in 2 hours.

**tianimexi** · #10 08-20-2009, 12:07 AM

I saw the previews being advertised, and sure enough, they came right out and said you can't have a discussion about bodybuilding without addressing steroids... I'm going to watch, but I doubt I'm going to like how they portray us. The interesting thing was that they were only showing figure girls in the previews, no fbb's.

NYCStrongFox · #11 08-20-2009, 12:09 AM

Who is this Kendra character?

**MuscleEngineer** · #20 08-20-2009, 02:07 AM

Yes! Pissed as hell here. I set my Direct TV to auto tune. The guide is telling me that the female bodybuilder is on now, but it's Kendra

When the TV auto tuned, I saw a split second of someone hugging a fbber in a comp suit, then Kendra started... so apparently E changed their schedule without notifying networks, satellite providers etc.
