The Little Couple

[pirateofthecarolinas]

On the first show, Jen stated that she first contacted Bill. They both belonged to a little people dating website/community.

Bills new look is bad, in my opinion. The goatee or whatever does NOT fit him well.

I know it may have him trying to look young, but it just looks silly.

I'm not a fan of his new look (kind of reminds me of Scott Peterson when he was arrested ), but hey...I'm sure people don't like mine either. I'm just not a fan in general of men "doing" their hair, esp color. But some people think women should gray gracefully, and I'm SO not going to do that.

I know I'm in the minority but I really like Bill. I think he's funny and he seems to really love Jen.

Me too! I think they complement each other very well.

I enjoy the show, and really like both Bill and Jen. And his new look - I actually like it! I know, I know, I'm in the minority here.

One thing I really enjoy about the show is how analytical both of them are, and how intelligent they seem. Jen has a gift for taking a complex topic and making it very approachable, and yet you don't get the sense that she's talking down to whoever she is addressing either.

Bill...he strikes me as a smart-@$$; I like that. I don't know what he is like off-camera, or in the cuttings that end up on the editing room floor, but what I see on the show strikes me as someone with a wicked sense of humor.

Me too. I'm surprised people don't like him. Oh well...to each his own.

I'm guessing that Jen's voice is part of her "condition" for lack of a better word. If you don't like it, don't watch. But the annoyance here surprises me.

I'm also guessing that perhaps, with their conditions, and their obvious intelligence (particularly Jen...she strikes me as someone who was a very responsible and devoted student) that they got some good scholarships and perhaps aren't as loaded down with school expenses as others might be, and therefore, started out with a better financial situation post-education.

ANY show, reality or otherwise, is getting some perks by having a business represented on their show. And in this particular case, with the difficulty of buying clothes/shoes (I can't imagine how frustrating and aggravating and EXPENSIVE it must be to get grown up clothes in their sizes), I certainly wouldn't begrudge them getting those free. It's a win-win situation for both them and the designers and businesses.

The "marrying his meal ticket" sentiment shocks me. He's doing well on his own. If she makes more, so what??? What about all the women out there who make less than their husbands? I've been married 26 years, and have been a SAHM for most of the last 22. Who knew it was about me "marrying my meal ticket"; I thought it was about a choice we made for me to stay home and raise the kids.

i like this program. i like the fact that they are two intelligent people who seem to have it all together despite their sizes. they seem to love each other very much. i, too, like the fact that he's sort of a smart *** and she's
a little more serious. it's a good balance. i hope their dreams of becoming parents work out. i think they'll be great parents.

Amen, Sister!
