I thoroughly dislike shows like these. In the end it is little more then propaganda aimed at the youngest among us, and downright insulting towards the intelligence of children.
Furthermore it encourages a negative way of thinking towards people who aren't sportive and people who have weight problems. It generates the idea that if you don't like sport ( or simply aren't good at it), and if you are overweight, that there is something wrong with you. There is nothing wrong with a child that enjoys eating candy, there is nothing wrong with a child who likes to sit down and play a computer game.
It is bad enough so many adults obsess about the shape their body is in, and how much they weigh, do we really need to imprint these negative ways of thinking on our little children?
