The reality television series A Little People Big World, directed and written by Lauren Friedman, raises the question of “where the big world of small people” comes to life.
2017 Winner Guinness World Records Most watched episodes of the family-focused reality television show “Little People Big World” and also the winner of the 2006 Media Access Award Outstanding Achievement – Television Reality.
The show focuses on the trope of a reality series that focuses on the lives of a group of people, usually a family. The famous show Keeping Up with the Kardashians is one of the show types under consideration; however, it is entirely different.
The show revolves around the story of the Roloffs, who share the pressure of being small in an average-sized world. They are people determined to succeed in a world where differences are unacceptable.
The Roloff family consists of dwarfs and people of average height, and as parents, Matt and Amy look at how they raise their children. Beyond the documentary series, it gives the audience an idea of how they handle their family business. After the release of the series in 2006, the family’s life changed.
Little People Big World Filming Locations
The TV series occurs primarily in the small world the Roloff family calls home. However, the house isn’t exactly small; it includes a pumpkin farm, an amusement park, and many more.
