The remaining contestants on NBC's "Biggest Loser" have reportedly walked off the show and are threatening to quit, reports TMZ.com.

The mutiny happened this week when the contestants learned that the producers were considering bringing back previous contestants to compete, the story notes. The current contestants, to protest that decision, decided together to walk off the show in the middle of shooting an episode, the story says.

The show has shut down production for at least a week, the piece adds. NBC and "The Biggest Loser" didn't immediately respond, the story says.
