On tonight’s new episodes of Little People, Big World there’s big fun and big drama. In the first episode airing at 8/7c, the boys just want to have fun, but their dad Matt is concerned about details when he realizes his teenage sons are going to hang with “babes in hot tubs”:

Later, while watching Zach play soccer, Amy talks about how she learns from his determination — but the mood quickly changes when Zach gets hurt on the field:

Space is limited in the house due to the remodel — so in the second episode airing at 8:30/7:30c, Molly and Jacob take their sibling scuffle wherever they find room:

Later in the episode random sheep wander onto the Roloff’s property and a wild chase breaks out to ward them off. Tough mom Amy, however, is unfazed:

Listen to the Show’s Music Online

Kevin February 18th, 2008

One of the small nuances that makes Little People Big World so great is the whimsical music which helps set the mood for different plots and settings. I had originally thought the music was composed by some TLC person who did that sort of thing. It turns out, the man behind the music is Joey Newman, a composer who has done work for films, television, and even video games.

Joey has a number of the show songs available for listening to at his online portfolio. Just go to his site, then click “Media” on the left side of the page, then scroll all the way to the bottom to listen to his Little People Big World tracks.

It was especially fun to listen to the main theme song, and read the lines from Matt & Amy inside my head while it played.

The Original Series Trailer

Kevin February 13th, 2008

Over on the mattroloff.com forums, one of the fans dug up this video. It is the original trailer TLC ran for Little People Big World in select movie theaters in late 2004 and early 2005. The kids, and the farm, have changed a lot in the years since the shows’ debut.

Roloffs Of The Caribbean

Kevin November 26th, 2007

I’m not sure if we’re going to see any pirates on tonights’ episode, but the Roloffs are going to be visiting the Caribbean for another family vacation. Yes, life is good when you have a major TV network to help pay for trips to exotic places.

Below is a gallery of the Roloffs on their trip. I must say, Molly is looking rather festive in these pics, and it’s great to see that the boys found a group to play soccer with, even on their vacation!
