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.

I feel very sad to see The Little Couple cancelled! Their family is precious! I have watched every episode faithfully!
Oh my goodness please DONOT cancel This show I look forward to watching it, if anything should be cancelled , it should be the Duggars
Sugar good it Jill and Jess good now
This is a true reality show about real people. They are a delight to watch grow their family and lives. I would like to see occasional updates to their lives, or even holidays or significant events.
Why do the networks cancel the best programs to opt for reality TV (whose reality is it anyway)? I’m so tired of all the junk and sorry the program’s listed are under consideration for cancellation because I follow three of them faithfully! Come on TLC and Discovery – keep the good programs going! There is enough misery in the world, let us have our good programming for much-needed positivity!!!
I love the little couple. Please don’t cancel it.
