BURBANK, CA � June 24, 2008 � NBC's popular reality series "The Biggest Loser" is launching an 11-city, cross-country search to find new contestants for season seven of the hit show.

Season six of the series -- "The Biggest Loser: Families" � will premiere in the fall and will feature husband-and-wife teams and parent-adult child teams.
