Little People, Big World. How do you not love these people.

I mostly find reality tv boring. These people are Amazing. Amy's fed up with trucks full of dirt rumbling by her house and Matt is out buying more. Matt asks the dirt seller something like "so how much are we talking about" and the guy says something like about 18,000 yards. Matt says "I don't think I can sneak this by Amy". I could watch these people all day. Matt, once again, has a plan.

1. Absolutely awesome show. I love it.

2. It would be great... if it wasn't on TLC.

Remember when TLC used to show documentaries instead of reality shows? Now it's all reality shows, and fashion shows and cooking shows and... well everything but documentaries.

Discovery Channel is mostly showing shows about people building motorcycles and other sorts of reality shows, but again, precious few actual documentaries. They do throw an actual documentary on from time to time just to see if you're paying attention, but mostly they don't seem to bother anymore.

The History Channel still shows plenty of documentaries, but why are so few of those documentaries about... you know... history? Learning how giant oil rigs and sky cranes work is kinda cool, but what does that have to do with history?

Meh.

Crap, crap, crap.

3. Ah, how well I remember those days.

I think this is the only show I watch on TLC anymore. I'm watching The Property King right now because I left the remote upstairs and I'm too lazy to go get it.

5. Huh? I went to CMU.

Fall of 71 to spring 75. I didn't do well. Amy went to CMU?

8. Amy and Matt Roloff live in a small farm in Oregon.

They're Little People, Dwarfs. They have 4 kids. The twins, Jeremy and Zack(Zack is a little person like his parents), Molly and Jacob. Matt has more ideas that Amy can deal with. She runs around trying to take care of the house and kids and Matt is always implementing his next big idea for a start-up company or to make the farm pay. Somehow they make it work and it isn't always Disney.
