With some of the marriages failing, the unorthodox relationships keep viewers interested in Sister Wives.
The Big Picture Sister Wives premiered on TLC in September 2010. The show followed a family of polygamists in Utah. Patriarch Kody Brown, along with his three wives, Meri, Janelle and Christine and soon-to-be fourth wife Robyn, agreed to bring the cameras into their home. They all wanted to bring awareness of plural marriage and the prejudices that goes with it. Kody said he felt “love should be multiplied, not divided.
Does this mean the future of Sister Wives is coming to an end? According to data from Nieslon, it would suggest not. Four million people watched Sister Wives premiere on August 20 over a 3-day period. The show achieved its highest ratings in six years, making it the top show on TLC, surpassing the networks' flagship 90 Day franchises. According to TLC, that makes Sister Wives the No. 1 cable program of the week among women 25-54.
Now in its 18th season, Sister Wives is an unexpected success, seemingly at the expense of 3 of the 4 wives' marriages. In the opening episodes of this current season the dynamics between Kody and Christie, who has now moved out, it is clearly visible with heated conversations between the pair. Thanksgiving is no longer a family affair with both Christine and Janelle choosing not to come. Robyn senses her children feel a divide growing between the once close-knit family.
