Gross...Seven to spin-off Loser series?

Would you like to see that bogan family off Winners and Losers star in a brand new show of their own? Channel Seven seem to think so, and are apparently writing a potential spin-off surrounding The Gross Family. I can totally picture them using that title, too. Some exec is probably like, "he he, that's funny cause their last name is gross and they're also gross bogans!"

Winners and Losers started out okay but after about three episodes in, it turned into a cliched mess and has this weird reflection of Australian life that's stuck in the 1980s. Plus there's too much of Blair McDonough for my liking. He has this really creepy, haggard new look that scares me.

I have no idea why Channel Seven seem to think that a show surrounding the Gross family would make good TV. They already have a family-based drama on air right now. It's called Packed to the Rafters.

Actually...I would totally watch a spin-off of both Packed to the Rafters and Winners and Losers if it concentrated on Ben Rafter (Hugh Sheridan) and Patrick Gross (Jack Pearson) both realising that they're gay and they fall for each other. At least that wouldn't be a stretch for Hugh (or so I've read)...

WARNING: Watch this video on mute. It's horrendously awful...

Rebecca Gibney's shock new weight gain...for movie role

Packed to the Rafters favourite Rebecca Gibney has gained around 20 kilos, reports Woman's Day - but it's all in the name of art.

This isn't Rebecca Gibney, but her hot TV son Hugh Sheridan and his awful voice. You need to watch this in mute.

Gibney has gone all Renee Zellweger and has put on the weight for a forthcoming movie project. She will co-star  in Mental opposite Toni Collette. The film will be directed by PJ Hogan (My Best Friend's Wedding, Peter Pan and Muriel's Wedding).

Gibney tells WD that the experience is liberating:

"It’s like being pregnant. You can eat whatever you want. In the beginning it was like, ‘Wow! Ice-cream, peanut butter, everything"

I swear, this is the same quote Renee Zellweger kept churning out when she gained all that body weight for Bridget's Jones Diary.

To see Rebecca with her fuller figure, head over to Woman's Day here (I'm not going to even try to put the image on my blog, I'm sure it's copyrighted down to the core especially for a new issue).
