“Sister Wives” Returns for Its Most Powerful Season to Date on September 11 at 10 ET/PT

“Sister Wives” Returns for Its Most Powerful Season to Date on September 11 at 10 ET/PT
This season, “Sister Wives” takes a dramatic and emotional turn, as Christine leaves Kody and changes the dynamic of this polygamist family forever.
[via press release from TLC]
“SISTER WIVES” RETURNS FOR ITS MOST POWERFUL SEASON TO DATE ON SEPTEMBER 11 AT 10 ET/PT

(Los Angeles, Calif.) – Fresh off the heels of a head turning season, SISTER WIVES picks up right where the season left off when the series returns on Sunday, September 11 at 10PM ET/PT. For twelve years, dedicated fans have followed the highs and lows between Kody Brown and his four wives – Meri, Janelle, Christine and Robyn – as they’ve expanded their family and celebrated life’s big moments from birthdays to weddings and babies. This season, Sister Wives takes a dramatic and emotional turn, as Christine leaves Kody and changes the dynamic of this polygamist family forever.

“When TLC first introduced Sister Wives, the country was fascinated by a family with a very different lifestyle than most. The Browns challenged the notion of a traditional family mold and over a decade later, their family dynamics are still resonating with viewers because of their honesty, vulnerability and now, their relatability,” said Howard Lee, President of TLC Streaming and Network Originals.

Last year, Christine kicked Kody out of her home, which was one of the hardest things she has ever done. But now, formally putting an end to their marriage turns out to be even harder. And when she has to tell her sister wives and her children, nobody takes it well. She is determined to move to Utah to be with her older children but when Kody tries to stop her, Christine calls him out for favoring one wife and her children, over all the others. The stresses multiply as people begin to take sides.

And on top of it all, COVID is still a major issue for the Brown family, as first, Janelle and her children test positive and later, Kody, Robyn and their kids face their own struggles during the pandemic. When Christine’s daughter Mykelti gives birth, she invites some of the sister wives to be part of it, but not others and her choices are surprising. Then, without talking to Kody, Janelle buys a giant RV and moves onto their undeveloped Coyote Pass property as she is desperate to get construction started on their homes. This season will see the family divided like never before, leaving one thing for certain: the Browns will never be the same.

Earlier this year, Sister Wives averaged a 2.07 W25-54 rating and 2.5M P2+ viewers and it is cable’s #1 non-sports program with W25-54 in 2022td.

(Los Angeles, Calif.) – Viewers can catch up with some of their favorite TLC families when four series premiere new episodes next month. February kicks off with the return of two beloved TLC families, first the Browns of SISTER WIVES, who are adjusting to their new life in Flagstaff living in separate homes, and later the Busbys of OUTDAUGHTERED, who are preparing for the quintuplets to start kindergarten. Then, the highly anticipated return of SEEKING SISTER WIFE promises drama, twists and divorces as two families return and three new couples begin their search for a sister wife. March brings a new season of RETURN TO AMISH, where painful pasts and hopeful futures collide for the group of Amish (and formerly Amish) as they navigate life on the outside. More information on each series below:

SISTER WIVES – Premieres on TLC on Sunday, February 14 at 10pm ET/PT

Last season, Kody Brown, his four wives – Meri, Janelle, Christine and Robyn – and their families relocated to Flagstaff, Arizona where they hoped to start an exciting new chapter of their lives. Little did they know that settling down in temporary homes before breaking ground on the land they purchased would be harder than they thought. This season, we see the Browns continuing to work through their new lifestyle of living apart from one another and the stressful decisions they must make about their future home. Like the rest of the world, COVID-19 puts an extra strain on the family and the Browns’ big gatherings and large parties that brought the family together are now a thing of the past. Join the conversation on social media by using #SisterWives. SISTER WIVES is produced for TLC by Puddle Monkey Productions in association with Figure 8 Films.

There will also be celebrations galore, whether it’s a homemade, backyard haunted maze for Halloween or a socially distant visit with Santa. The Busbys always find ways to make things special for their girls, no matter the circumstances; however, an unknown and painful health issue that’s been haunting Super Mom Danielle for years has become unbearable, and her search for answers could lead her down a scary path.
