Storyline

In the most in-depth television documentation of the lives of Little People, the series follows the Roloffs - an extraordinary family composed of both little and average-sized people. Over six months and for 10 hours per day, the series captured the family's everyday successes and struggles. The result is an intimate view of life as a Little Person. Parents Matt and Amy Roloff are both little people - 4 feet tall - but they are determined to succeed in a world that isn't always accepting of differences. Matt has risen through the ranks of the business world, closing deals with some of Silicon Valley's most well-known companies.

User Reviews

I think that the Roloff family is just like any other family.

I think that the Roloff family is just an ordinary family. They argue, laugh, enjoy each other and have family fun. They are a great example as a family. Sure, Matt, Amy and Zach are little people, but that should not make any difference, they are human beings and they should be treated like any other person on this planet. People say that Jeremy is mean, he's just being a brother. Matt is a loser, he's not..he just wants the best for his family, he didn't get what he has now when he was a kid, so now he wants to make his dreams come true for his children. This movie is a great movie, it's the best i've ever seen. Their show is the best show on television. The one good thing about this show is that it's normal and it's not just something that's made up and it's all happening in real life, that's what makes it so great. They're a normal family and they come together great.And Molly, is the only sister, i know how it feels, i have 3 brothers too and it sucks and she actually inspires me to deal with them and keep going. My opinion is that they're a great family and they should continue the show because it's the best television show out there.
