    matt and amy

    I love the show. But I feel Amy is a little hard on Matt. I'm sure Amy is under pressure with all she does. And it may add to her frustration when Matt trys to come up with something innovative. As he did succeed in his tools for little people. But the relationship seems forced and not truly genuine. I hope this show isn't causing relationship problems. I know Matt loves Amy. But not sure if the feelings mutual. She critizes his "Dreams" and calls him a dreamer. But that's what make some people really great. On their vacations I seen several moments that show lack of interest toward Matt. Any kiss or affection seems forced and not wanted by Amy. I think he is sweet and is trying the best of his ability. But no one is perfect.

    Great Show

    I love this show, and while the intentions are good--- I think the two older boy's language has gotten a little out of hand. I wish they also would listen to Matt & Amy they treat their parents very mean in my opinion. Never wanna help or take care of that beautiful home.

    LOVE IT

    WHAT A WONDERFUL FAMILY. IT'S BEAUTIFUL TO SEE THEM INTERACT AND SHOW SO MUCH LOVE AND COMPASSION FOR ONE ANOTHER. I LOVE HOW THE PARENTS DISCIPLINE, BUT IT'S DONE WITH THOUGHT AND KINDNESS. THEY NEVER FEEL SORRY FOR THEMSELVES. THIS SHOW REPRESENTS FAMILY LOVE AND TOGETHERNESS AT IT'S TOP FORM. I HOPE IT STAYS ON FOREVER. FINALLY A SHOW THAT DOESN'T RELY ON SEX, NUDITY AND DEGRADING EACHOTHER JUST TO MAKE RATINGS.

    I love the Roloff family! Amy and Matt are terrific, thoughtful, tolerant and loving parents, and their kids are full of energy and spunk. My daughter has seen this show with me a few times, and is fascinated by seeing little people going about their everyday lives. I think watching the show can provide great "teachable moments" -- not just about the obvious differences, but also about why parents set limits, how kids made choices, etc. Terrific show, first rate all the way!

    Best Ever Reality

    This is one of, if not the best reality program to be aired since the onset of reality programming. Matt, Amy and their children are a breath of fresh air. A family of caring, individualistic, compassionate, honest people who emphasizes what Family is all about, Values, Unity and a time when a "group of People living together in a House", were actually a "Family living in a Home". A time truely missed in the world of today.

    A must see program for all ages.

    I've been lucky to know several little people in my life. Developing an understanding of their daily challenges has made me a more understanding and caring person.

    Great Show

    My daughter, who is 7, and I watch this show every week. It is wonderful for her (& me) to see that there are different people in the world, yet they go through the same things we do. It really takes you into the lives of little people. If you haven't watched this show I encourage you to watch it w/ your kids and discuss how everyone is different.

    my world was enlarged by watching!

    GREAT program - a real eye-opener. True-to-life situations where the common person can see the intelligence of Little People and how they adapt in the Big World - VERY educational, thank you!

    A Modern day Waltons

    A wonderful family who have opend their door to everyone. I've never thought much on the subject of little people, this show has opened my eyes to a group of people who struggle with things I take for granted. Thay are small in size, but larger in heart than most people I know. Their determination and love of family shines thru and reminds me of how family should be - no matter the size.

    I cried! I laughed!

    I love watching Little People, Big World because it helps us who are concern about getting along with others who are a little different understand how their feelings are on certain issues. This is education for us all and will definitely impact the world in which we live. Whoever thought of such a program I applaud you this is a great program and I will watch as long as it is televised.

    The best tv show (i think it should be of the year)

    Matt is a normal dad just a little shorter. Amy is a great lady and i would personally like to meet her. Zach is a happy go-lucky guy who acts like a normal teen (Jeremy included!) Molly is the sweet girl who likes to help out and usually doesn't fight with anybody. And the little guy will always be fighting strongly

    Amazing.

    This is a very good show. It is just a normal family with problems just like us. The ojnly difference is that they are shorter. I would reconmend this to anyone. It show that "little people" are not scary. They have the same feelings that we have. We are self-concious and they are the same. Most definetly a must watch!!
