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?
Uk have been waiting for the the little couple to return to our screen after the TLC and discovery issues brought against Europe satellite television network providers. We were going to get the little couple in July and August alongside the Johnson as we are waiting for the new episodes of the shows and I am discussed by unprofessional television network providers and TV stations in Europe and USA can’t deliver quality programs and still stubble about the pay deal with the production company and holding company wages back with out paying for little couple with their production company?
I love the Little Couple and their children. They are a wonderful example of what little people do and what wonderful parents they are.
I love this show…
Please keep this show on the air. Love the family.
LOVE THIS SHOW PLEASE BRING BACK
P!ease leave Little People on please!
Such a great show indicating how people of any stature and background can grow to make something of themselves and be a productive citizen and example for others. And a great show about adoptions, too. Sadly, all this broohaha is only predicated upon money.

My husband and I have watched all of the shows and thoroughly enjoyed them we miss this show and do hope they bring it back soon. It is educational, funny, heartwarmimg, a good family show.
I have watched every episode of every season. It is enjoyable to watch. But there is more to it. These two remarkable people have good healthy parenting skills that all parents can learn. It is a shame they are no longer on air.
Please don’t cancel the Little Couple. Bring them back. Love to watch the little ones. Looking forward again.
