...Eyeworks, the third largest independent television producer in the world. Formed in 2001 and based in the Netherlands, it has affiliates in 14 countries, and its offerings are broadcast to the citizens of 50. Its American arm, 3Ball Productions, makes reality shows that range from respectable (The Biggest Loser and Beauty and the Geek) to cringe-inducing (Breaking Bonaduce and Scott Baio Is 45 ... and Single). It produced I Know My Kid's a Star, so it can handle high-maintenance mothers, and it's now casting for Camp Cougar, a show about older women chasing younger men, so clearly...

...recently said that by the time The Biggest Loser contestants come to you they're half dead. What did you mean by that? Yes, I said "half-dead" And everybody was like, "oh, I can't believe she said that." Are people just not tuning into the show? We've got 30-year-olds whose internal organs are 60.
