Is The Little Couple over? Deadline reports the TLC series’ production company, LMNO, is now locked in litigation with parent network Discovery.
The reality series follows the family of Bill Klein and Jennifer Arnold, a couple who both have skeletal dysplasia. The show began in 2009 and has already aired eight seasons.
Yesterday, LMNO filed a suit against Discovery for breach of contract and copyright infringement, “accusing the giant media company of conspiring with a “criminal extortionist” to squeeze LMNO out of six of its shows, including TLC hit The Little Couple.”
According to the production company, Discovery allegedly took advantage of LMNO’s troubled financial situation in order to take control of shows like The Little Couple. As of now, Discovery has sent LMNO termination notices for several shows, including The Little Couple, 7 Little Johnstons, Killer Confessions, Hollywood & Crime, The Coroner: I Speak for the Dead, and Unusual Suspects.
Whether or not this means The Little Couple is cancelled remains to be decided.
What do you think? Are you a fan of The Little Couple? Would you like to see the series continue?
I will be so disappointed if The Little Couple is cancelled. I look forward to this show every season and miss it when it is not on. PLEASE bring it back!
I really miss the show and hope it won’t be long before it returns
I hope they bring the little couple back because I’m a great fan of the family I’ve been following them from day 1
PLEASE, do not cancel the Little Couple. I have fallen in love with them!
Yes I would like them to return the little couple is one of my fever it show
The Little Couple is one of the very best shows on ANY station & I absolutely hate to hear that it may be cancelled. TLC used to have some really great shows on, allowing us to learn, while watching very clean, entertaining television (didn’t TLC used to mean The Learning Channel?). This is a beautiful family w/gorgeous little kids from different countries. How fabulous it has been watching this brave couple take us thru difficulties of conceiving due to dwarfism, adopting their children from two different countries, researching these countries w/them, bringing the kids home, Jenn’s diagnosis of cancer-her gruesome… Read more »
I would love to see the little couple back on tv
I hope this show returns, it provides such great family entertainment, and demonstrates excellent parenting and is the highlight of good TV. It also educates and promotes healthy understanding of little people.
I do not understand the thinking behind canceling THE LITTLE COUPLE. THEY ARE SO GOOD WITH THEIR KIDS. THERE ARE NOT THAT MANY GOOD SHOWS ON ANYMORE. “LOVE AT FIRST KISS” (DUMB) 90 DAY FIANCE” (STUPID) AND DON’T GET ME STARTED ON THE GYSPIES…. AS LONG AS JEN AND BILL ARE WILLING TO PUT THEIR LIVES IN THE PUBLIC EYE, PLEASE LET THEM. THE SHOW IS REFRESHING AND LOVING.
I sincerely hope the Little Couple is not cancelled. It is one of the best reality shows on the air. Jen & Bill are such a wonderful couple adopting Will & Zoey from different countries & keeping their culture fresh in the little minds.
I wish some of the other so called reality shows were cancelled instead. I also enjoyed the 8 Johnson family, the couple from Annapolis with the twins & older boy….sorry do not recall the names at the moment but also great shows…
You mean to tell me you are keeping the Dugger daughters show and getting rid of one of the best shows on TV THE LITTLE COUPLE, you are keeping the God awful show Sister Wives and getting rid of THE LITTLE COUPLE, what is wrong with you people✨
I beg you to please keep both the little couple and the 7 little Johnsons, they are some of the last wholesome shows we have. Family values are important and both families do a wonderful job of this. I certainly would appreciate your consideration.
That is my favorite show. I will be so upset if it is cancelled. Love watching this sweet family has they go about their daily lives. They are truly an inspiration.
Both myself and my grandsons the show.We would both like to be continued.
Love the show!
