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.

My family and I love the Little Couple, please do everything u can to keep their story alive
Watching the “Little Couple” was such a joyful and happy experience unlike so much Dish programming. The example set by the couple reflected well on them and the channel. I miss the program.
I hope that these channels get things worked out with their law suits quickly and bring back THE LITTLE COUPLE & 7 LITTLE JOHNSTONS. I really liked watching both shows. They were enjoyable, wholesome and entertaining. Shows you could watch safely with your whole family. Something more TV and cinema production could learn from. I wish that the “right people” would actually see all of these positive comments and listen to the people they are programming for.
Please bring back the Little Couple. I love this show. It always makes me happy to watch.
I love the show! Bring it back

This program is fascinating in the fact these two people have careers and want to raise a family. They have gone to the extremes to create their family. I can’t see how you could cancel a program that inspire people who are not average to dream the impossible.
I just wish your channel didn’t have so many commercials in each program.
Please bring back the Little Couple!! It’s the best show EVER!!!! My 81 year old mother got me watching the show a few years ago…and now I’m hooked on the show as well. How is the family doing now? Would love to know how Will and Zoey are doing in school? Is Will taller than Jen now? Please Please bring them back!!!!!
Please bring back this show. I have watched it from the beginning and I have really enjoyed the heartwarming story of this couple and their children.
Please bring the little couple back. It is such an inspiration to all of us that watch it. When I see what they have gone thur and all the medical issues it helps me as I have medical issues like they do. It really is a great show and so funny.

I really miss there show and not seeing those adorable kids of theres. Need to see those sweet… Read more »
Please do not cancel this show. I have watched it from the very first episode. It has taught me so much and continues to be informative as well as a wholesome family show. I have been so disappointed in the direction that TLC has been going and if they cancel this show it will just be another reason why I will not even check out their lineup.
