Does anyone else watch this show? They are currently showing reruns of the 1st season on TLC. The 2nd season starts in March.
The show basically follows the Roloff family who live and work on their farm. There are 4 kids. The parents (Matt & Amy) are both little people and only one of their sons, Zach is also a little person.
This is really a good show. I have been sitting here in tears watching the episode w/the 5 year old boy Chance. He was soooooo adorable. I can't wait to see the 2nd season.
I have definitely fallen in love w/this show. I just started watching it this week.

But I watched the show last night with Chance preparing to go home with his new family. He was so cute and it brought tears to my eyes too. What a good show. And educational too.

Hubby and I both watch it! We saw the episode last night with "Chance". It made us both cry! I told hubby if we ever get out to Oregon and are close to the Roloff farm, we gotta stop by and meet all of them! They are really a neat family. Little people with big hearts and huge personalities!

I really have learned a lot watching this show.
If I was in Oregon in I would stop in too. Their farm is sooo cool. Matt is very smart and creative.
I hope the 2nd season starts off good and that Jacob and Mike ( I think) are okay.

OMG, I don't miss a show. I love watching them. In March they're youngest son and another man gets hurt while they were launching pumpkins. They looked like they were hurt bad. I don't miss a show or rerun.

I watch this show on occasion as well. I have to do it when hubby isn't around though because he hates it! He can't stand Matt and his whining. My hubby is also disabled but dosen't define himself by it as Matt seems to do. I give kudos to Amy... I couldn't be married to someone like Matt!
One thing that always cracks us up though... they are always talking about how the farm is in "trouble" but Matt spends money like it's going out of style. Have you seen the episodes where they go to Hawaii and stay at the FOUR SEASONS hotel?? LOL... cracks me up.

I agree! I am guessing TLC paid for the trip, but what about all that STUFF he just buys for the farm??
