Little People Big World: Roloff Farms Drama Has Been A Goldmine For TLC

Little People Big World fans have been critical for some time regarding the TLC show’s storylines. After 25 seasons on the air, things can get a bit stale, with some saying it has become flat-out boring. Thanks to some real-life family drama over Roloff Farms, TLC has been able to milk that storyline.

The Little People Big World family rift and the resulting bitterness from the failed farm deal is the kind of thing you’d expect for a Yellowstone storyline. However, this unfolded within the Roloff family, and things got bad enough that Zach Roloff moved his family farther away, to Battle Ground, Washington.

LPBW: Fans Critical Over Matt Roloff’s Decision

Instead of selling a portion of Roloff Farms to either Zach Roloff or Jeremy Roloff, Matt decided to rent out the “Big House” on a short-term basis through platforms like Airbnb and Vrbo. From a business perspective, this makes sense. Roloff Farms is a major draw for visitors, and the prospect of staying in the same house where Matt and Amy raised their family has its appeal.

This also means another source of income for Matt Roloff, as every booking means more money in Matt’s pocket in a more passive way.

However, Little People Big World fans have been extremely critical of Matt’s decision, with many saying that he ruined his legacy by not passing the torch to his sons, and so on. Many viewers think Matt made the wrong decision, seemingly choosing business over family.

Speaking of Jacob Roloff and his youngest son running the farm, Matt Roloff said: “He totally is. Jacob is running the entire farm in a way that far surpasses any of the other kids involvement.”
