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?
please bring back the little couple. Such a inspiring family. Please don’t cancel.
You must must bring The Little Couple back!!! It is such a great show and truly teaches wonderful lessons to all ages. My 4.5 year old has been watching The Little Couple since he was 2 and thinks of them family.
The little couple is a show I can watch with my grand kids without worrying about what might pop up that none of us want to see. Take off shows like the gypsy weddings, where all they do is fight. I really don’t want to watch shows like the Duggers, in any form, and toddlers in tiaras, It’s just cruel to take a little kids childhood away while the mother’s are always fighting about something, much less exploit them on television. Keep shows like the little couple going .
I only watch one show on tlc. I love Outdaughtered. If you take Little Couple off then most of the year I will not be a viewer.
I really do not know who decides what stay and what goestrogen, however I think you should really re-think yoy decision to cancel on of the best shows you ever televised, as a matter of fact, it is not on l8ng enough during it’s season
Please do not cancel the little couple
I have a few shows left on TLC worth watching. you have have trash like toddlers and tiaras or gypsy wedding on and you’re cancelling the one show I’ve consistently watched. If they go that will be the end of what I watch on TLC.
This is one of the most up lifting program you have. You take them off I will no longer watch your network
This is the best show TLC has to offer. Take those Duggar people off instead!
The Little Couple is my favorite show and will be very disappointed if it doesn’t return.
This is a fantastic show especially educating how real little people are. Needs to be brought back please. Thank you.
Bring back the little couple !! I have watched this show for several years and I don’t want it to end! !!
Best show ever… it has really educated many people regarding little people… please please bring it back… it’s a great show for young people and not making fun of others
I absolutely LOVE, LOVE the show but most of all love them. Jen and Bill are so inspiring. It would be a tremendous loss to cancel the show. Please keep this inspirational family on the air!!
