Sister Wives fans are skeptical about the return of the TLC series for a new season. In a Reddit thread, viewers express their belief that the show has reached the end of its course after nearly 16 years. The Brown family, once a cohesive unit that drew in audiences, has seen changes in dynamics with Kody Brown now living monogamously with Robyn Brown, while his three spiritual wives, Meri Brown, Janelle Brown, and Christine Brown Woolley, have left over the past three years.
One fan in the Reddit thread noted that the Garrison tribute episode should have been the series finale and that there never should have been a tell-all. Another fan predicted minimal new content for a potential new season, with repetitive clips and storylines dominating most of the episodes. The sentiment among some viewers is a hope for real answers, particularly from Meri and Jenn Sullivan, and a frustration at the potential for the series to continue as long as it retains viewership.
During the Season 20 One-on-One episodes, Kody Brown expressed weariness towards the season-ending interviews, describing them as “harder than the year before” and dubbing them “chicken s*** chit chat.” Host Sukanya Krishnan shared her experiences interviewing the Browns, highlighting the challenges of gaining the family’s trust and uncovering the nuances within their family culture.
Christine and Kody’s daughter, Mykelti Brown Padron, confirmed in an interview for the Growing Up in Polygamy YouTube channel that the family has filmed content for a 21st season. While Sister Wives is currently on hiatus, the future of the series remains uncertain as fans speculate about its return.
In a separate clip, Kody expressed frustration with the interview process, feeling like he’s constantly swimming upstream and tired of the antagonistic discussions. Sukanya Krishnan emphasized the complexity of the Brown family’s story and the layers that unfold as the cast allows, reflecting on the evolving narrative since her first interview with them in 2022.
As the fate of Sister Wives hangs in the balance, fans continue to debate the possibility of a new season while reflecting on the changes within the Brown family. The uncertainty surrounding the series leaves viewers questioning what the future holds for this long-running reality show.
