7 Little Johnstons

I really like this series. It has humor, real emotions, irony, etc. To me they are an average family who happen to be little people. They deal with things as they come along. They all have great personalities. Each one is unique but they blend well.

A family member is obsessed with little people shows, so I have seen most of them. This is probably the worst one. The family don't do well in front of the camera, they are unnatural and fake and seem uncomfortable. They clearly act it up for the show and try to make the most mundane and boring parts of their lives more interesting than they are.

The Little Couple and Little People Big World are on another level. Watch those if you want to see more genuine and sincere families.

Just another "what zaney antics will they get up to this week" "reality" family show.

Frankly, I believe all of these shows are exploitative. People who are only being shown because they are: small, fat, had multiple births etc. In the old days we had something similar. They were called "freak shows" and people would pay a penny to gawk. They were no less exploitative then, as the televised versions are today. Think that is harsh? What exactly are you tuning in to see? They are not on TV because they are talented. It's just little people partaking in buffoonery so that rubes on their couches can have a cheap laugh.

All of these shows double as ads for local businesses and attractions. "Today we are going to....", and its just an episode of them doing whatever wacky hijinks at that particular venue.

Nothing is organic or believable. They have no real talent or entertainment value. Its just "we're little/fat/septuplets/polygamous/grew up without technology" (take your pick, they are all the same show.)

Just wait till it changes gears, and the family falls apart like they all do, and it's doom and gloom episodes, where they will talk a divorce to death like all of the other shows do, just to milk it dry.

This is an awesome show that really has taken on a relatable story. This series started off with what it is like as little people in an average sized world, but it's also about parenting, family bonds, and humility.

This is the only reality show my husband will watch with me and honestly one of my favorites. The way Trent and amber have dealt with Anna and Jonah's issues over the years has been admirable. Emma will always be a crowd (and family) family. They are humble and down to earth and overall it's a show you can watch again and again.

There are plenty of TLC shows that have human interest story lines but this family is absolutely a one of their bests!

I have to wonder if the producers of the show are teenage boys. If I have to listen to another Potty joke, I'm going to turn the channel. The family is very sweet, I don't think they talk about bodily functions as much as the editors would like us to believe. It would be nice to watch a full episode without hearing about somebody pooping or peeing. As a short person, I really love seeing how little people navigate the world. It helps me get ideas on how I can also make life a bit easier. I also enjoy watching them redo their home. The kids are very sweet. It's nice seeing their lives and how they navigate an average size world.
