Sunday I spent a half-hour of my life that I will never, ever get back watching Little People, Big World on TLC. Do you sense the animosity? Allow me to repeat. I will never get that half-hour of my life back.
Of course, this show is one that has followed in the rush to put just about anything possible on the television if it follows some type of reality-series format. We are the fortunate one's who, through the magic of television, are dropped into the life of the Roloff family. Who are the Roloffs? I've never heard of them either, that is until I tuned in.
They are "an extraordinary family composed of both little and average-sized people." The parents, Matt and Amy Roloff are "little people." The have four children: Zach and Jeremy, Molly and Jacob. All of their children, with the exception of Zach ( who also happens to be Jeremy's twin ), are average-sized.
In this particular episode we are dropped into the family as Matt is planning a dinner for his 20th anniversary of their wedding. At the same time Jeremy and his girlfriend celebrate their first year of dating. Meanwhile the romance continues with Zach in his first relationship.
As with most reality-type programming everything is grounds for drama whether it be someone getting an earring, a simple miscommunication, or the slightest error in judgment.
Is it worth the watching? Hard to say. For me? No. Personally, I would tune into TLC ( The Learning Channel ) to learn something. But I don't understand where a reality series based around a family such as the Roloffs really constitutes learning anything? It follows suit with all the reality series such as following the Osbournes, the Simmons family, etc . . . The only difference is that at least you heard of the other families.
But that's why I'm here folks. I'm watching these shows so you don't have to. I won't let you down. I'll suffer through shows like these so that you, dear readers, don't have to lose precious time dedicated to shows like these.
Perhaps you're a fan of LittlePeople, Big World. Tell me why you like the show. Go ahead, speak your mind in the comments.
