Our Little Family

I really enjoy Little People Big World and the Little Couple. Tuned in to see Our Little Family. It really lacks any thing of interest. First the Mom is very happy to talk non stop about being "little"..but when some one takes notice of it and wants to get a picture of the family ..she is screaming "NO PICTURES". Really? I would think they might like being noticed from the show and also reality is that she can not demand through out their lives that no one takes a picture , especially if they are recognized from TV. Also they are being FILMED for a program, but an individual can not take a photo. I think they will only have about 15 minutes of fame. Is there any one else out there besides me that wonders if the kids ..especially Jack who is six is receiving any speech therapy? All three children have big speech impediments. The show as a whole is hard to listen to and not entertaining. Mom is not likable and the husband is whipped. It is SO scripted that it is very boring. I won't tune in again.

HE IS THE MOST ADORABLE "LITTLE" KID THERE IS! HIS COMMENTS AND ONE- LINERS ARE TO DIE FOR. AND WHEN HE STARTS RUNNING AROUND WITH HIS ARMS SWINGING AROUND, CRACKS ME UP. WHOLE FAMILY IS GREAT>>TWINS ARE SO SWEET. MOM and DAD awesome. DAN is cute with his comments, esp when he knows he can't get over on Michelle. hilarious. thank you for sharing your lives with everyone...adorable and entertaining and very informative at the same time. i haven't seen but a few episodes, but from what i've seen so far they seem like a very "normal" family with the same types of struggles everyone faces. they seem to adapt very well. i appreciate what they are going through and especially when they're out in public and some people stare or try and take pictures. just rude.

I don't know what it is, but I've always been fascinated by this particular show. To be perfectly honest, the scripting seems forced, and Jack's one liners seem to come from the producers or directors. This sounds like a terrible thing to say about children, but Jack is a smart mouth, annd a crybaby, and the girls are whiny and spoiled. However, it's balanced out by the love Dan and Michelle have for their children. The humor element seems to be forced, like they are deliberately telling the audience when they should be laughing. Some of the people on the show just seem so mean spirited toward one another, especially Michelle's brother. He's constantly picking on her, and the things he says , come across as cruel, and not good natured sibling teasing. Michelle's so-called friend, I don't remember what her name is, but the one she took the cooking class with, is constantly mentioning her height, she, in my opinion, is a word that I'm not allowed to say on here. She is certainly not a true friend to Michelle. Probably the most likable one in the family is Dan, although he's a bit boring. Like a lot of these TV shows, Michelle is always nagging at her husband, which is kind of standard protocol for television today. Husbands are always presented as doofy, and the wives point of view is always assumed to be the correct one, even when it clearly is not. But, Michelle and Dan are decent people. In fairness to the children, they are very young, and I'm sure the script writers have a lot to do with their behavior. But, it's so fascinating to see that these are really just normal, everyday Americans, despite their small statures. , these are very good people, but the kids just drive me bananas.

The commercial where mom asks for no pix to be taken implies that "tall" people are insensitive. However, in her first commercial, she says "What is special about my family is that we are all small". So, it's OK to cash in on her new found fame AND be condescending to tall people at the same time when they recognize her and her family. How does she know they are taking pix because they are little people? Maybe they are taking pix because the Little Family is on television and people just simply recognize them. How presumptuous. While I agree that perhaps before taking pix, people should ask permission, but either she wants the fame for having an "all small" family or she doesn't. She can't eat her cake and have it too!! Very offensive. Will never watch this show and will never recommend it to anyone. LOVE the Roloffs and Bill Klein and Jenn Arnold and Will and Zoey. Can't get enough of those guys.

The show seems scripted especially the kids. I am NOT feeling it. The mom comes across grumpy. The kids are cute but what they say and how they eat are a turn off. What happens with a lot of these shows is they find normal people but then the people get paid and become different and then I don't want to watch them anymore (hence Kate plus 8). I find myself rolling my eyes watching Our Little Family and not smiling. I cannot pin point what specifically it is. I like Little People and the Little Couple so it isn't that I am prejudice. I would love to see about 10 new shows on TLC. I am tired of reruns of all the same shows. Lets get some imagination going TLC. Shake it up a bit but please stop putting unpleasant people on the show. I am sure there are billions of more interesting families and interests.
