As Sister Wives Season 19 wraps up, fans are asking the big question: Is there a Season 20 on the way? The long-running TLC reality series, which has followed the life of polygamist Kody Brown and his expansive family for over a decade, has sparked curiosity about its future — and things seem a bit unclear.
Renewed or Canceled? The Official Word
At this time, Sister Wives Season 20 has not been officially renewed or canceled by TLC. The network has remained tight-lipped, leaving viewers guessing about what’s next for the Brown family.
Historically, renewal decisions are influenced by factors like ratings, fan engagement, and storyline potential. Unfortunately, Season 19 hasn’t exactly impressed — with USTVDB reporting a notable drop in viewership and fan interest. Many longtime viewers feel the show has lost its original spark, especially as the series shifts from a focus on polygamy to what seems more like a monogamous drama.
Has the Show Run Its Course?
When Sister Wives first premiered, it stood out for its raw look into a modern polygamist family — something rarely seen on TV. But now, with Kody Brown no longer in plural marriages and only Meri, Robyn, and Janelle occasionally featured, many are questioning whether the story still has legs.
Some fans have called Season 19 “directionless” and even “forced,” suggesting TLC might retire the series in favor of fresher, more dynamic content.
Rumors of Filming Spark Hope
Despite the silence from TLC, rumors of a Season 20 have been floating online. A Reddit post from late 2024 shared a TikTok screenshot of Meri Brown allegedly filming at a restaurant, suggesting production for the next season may already be underway.
The post read:
“Meri was spotted filming at a restaurant by her Airbnb for Season 20 of Sister Wives… the crew was filming there.”
While this isn’t solid proof of a renewal, it’s enough to keep hope alive for some fans.
Final Thoughts
So far, TLC hasn’t confirmed whether Sister Wives will return, but the show’s fading ratings, changed dynamics, and mixed reception could mean it’s nearing the end. Still, with filming rumors in circulation, it might not be time to say goodbye just yet.
Until an official announcement drops, fans will have to stay tuned — and keep their eyes peeled for signs of a Brown family comeback.
