The Roloffs Return to TLC in "Little People Big World"

Well, I must say, since the 4th of July has passed, our thoughts are moving more and more to the Fall.... And, when Pumpkin Season comes, I can't help but think of Matt Roloff and the entire Roloff family and of course, the Roloff Farm Pumpkin Patch!

TLC Press Release:


The Roloffs Return! TLC orders four new LITTLE PEOPLE BIG WORLD specials



TLC today confirmed that it has ordered four new LITTLE PEOPLE BIG WORLD specials, bringing back the beloved Roloff family - husband and wife Matt and Amy, and their children Jeremy, Zach, Molly, and Jacob. The groundbreaking series, the first to take viewers into the real-life challenges and celebrations of a family comprised of little and average height people, ran on TLC from 2006 - 2010.


The first special will resolve the cliffhangers left from the series finale, including the state of Matt and Amy's marriage, if the family sold the farm, and what's become of the kids. It will tentatively air in early October, 2011. Production began this week.


"The response from the fans since LITTLE PEOPLE BIG WORLD's finale has been overwhelming, asking how we're doing and what's the latest with the kids. These specials are going to be a great opportunity to share our families' updates with our fans from time to time through the year," said Matt & Amy Roloff.



"Across six seasons, the Roloffs shared unfiltered access to their remarkable lives, and these specials are a great opportunity to update the TLC audience on their latest developments," said Amy Winter, GM, TLC. "Matt and Amy will always be part of our network's family and we know their fans will be excited to reconnect."


Gay Rosenthal Productions is producing the specials for TLC.

There are just a few Reality Shows that are decent enough for family viewing. The Duggars Show is definitely one of them, with their show 19 Kids and Counting, which also airs on TLC.

It will be great to have the Roloffs back, even if it's just for these 4 "Little People Big World" specials. I can't wait to see if there are any changes on the Roloff farm... Will there be new additions, attractions, and surprises? The last addition, I believe, we saw - was Matt's Noah's Ark. I wonder if they have done anything else with it?

Even though I know their road hasn't been easy, physically, they never seem to have a disability. Instead, they are always able to do so much and are such an inspiration to so many!

For now, I love summer and I am holding on to it as long as I can, but when October comes... I will absolutely be looking forward to catching up with the Roloff Family on TLC!

God bless the Roloff Family!!!!!

Reality TV

Lately, I've found myself - watching a lot more Reality TV. My favorites are the Amazing Race, the Apprentice, the Biggest Loser, American Idol, 18 Kids and Counting, Little People Big World, and Table for 12!

I know there are plenty more out there, but those are the ones I enjoy the most. Usually, I record them and fast-forward through commercials, or boring performances (American Idol)... so that helps to save on time.


The next question is, who do I hope wins?

Amazing Race (CBS)- Mother & Son Team - Margie & Luke

the Apprentice (NBC)- my pick is the Vivacious, Joan Rivers

the Biggest Loser (NBC)- Tara, she's Incredible! She never gives up - what a Great Competitor! I love how she doubts herself sometimes in the challenge, yet keeps going and going with determination, and in the end, she defeats those who were way in front of her. And if it can't be Tara, I'm pulling for Mike... he is so sweet - I just hope America votes him in for the Finale and he does well.

American Idol (FOX)- Kris Allen is my favorite of the Final 3 ! I just loved when he sang the country song in his own ballad tone - "To Make You Feel My Love" I have it downloaded from Itunes and it is just a beautiful version.


As far as my other favorite family reality shows on TLC - 18 Kids and Counting, Little People Big World, and Table for 12 ... I just love watching these precious families.

18 Kids is the Duggar family, who have 18 children. I am impressed with the love, respect, and moral discipline shown with such honor and grace in their home. I hope that it is inspirational to other families - we certainly need more like them today.

Little People Big World - Talking about Inspirational... nothing holds this family back - including their height. I so admire them for all they accomplish in life - and they have a very united precious family.

Table for 12 - another beautiful family with 10 children, this time. 2 sets of twins and one grouping of sextuplets. One of the little girls has cerebral palsy and it so precious to see how the other children and parents treat her so gently and kind. She's such a precious, beautiful little girl. I love how they, too, are such a close knit family.

Thank you, TLC, for giving us such great family programming. It seems to be lacking on TV sitcoms today.
