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.

Please return this show. Jen and Bill and their precious children are such a wholesome program for our whole family to enjoy. There are so few. We have loved every minute and really miss them. They are the best ambassadors for their community by showcasing achievements constantly that reaffirms that just about nothing can hold us back. What a positive message and role models that are sorely needed in today’s world. Please put aside egos or politics or whatever it takes to put this wonderful show on the air. Please! Thank you!
I love this show. Please don’t cancel it.
Not only does the show inform the audience but also entertains. There are very few shows that inspire and make you smile at the same time. The Little Couple is one of the few reality shows that deserves to be aired.
My Favorite Show. Please return
