Why was downsized cancelled

She gave a choice of cheer or theater camp. She had to take back and not let her do either. I think they only suspended for the show for the summer. I wish she had done some simple park district or school district program for the 10 year old.

Far cheaper and an alternative many could duplicate. The thing is they tried to maintain their standard of living despite having less income. I felt bad for laura. Always doing another job. Why could Todd wait tables or clean house? She is a saint. Why was Todd all mad the son read a magazine after having a bad grade. Todd still finds time for him away from homework working for him on jobs.

How sad. Hey middle class america!! Go cry a river to oprah yo…hahahaha…wow this show made me laugh. God bless america. Hey MsKenya I have lived that life all my life I am not now nore ever been a Parasite but I made my own way in life and did not put my kids to work as slave labor sorry saw that in one show he stood there giving orders wile the kids did all the work and then he complained about how much work it was he took away from the kids stuff they paid for because the family could not afford it all this man taught was how to be a lazy Dictator.

Struggle to feed there kids an still pay the light bill. I have watched it on and off between history channel commercials. I actually wanted to know if there was a way to help her — if so — please contact me. What I found refreshing was she was worried and concerned and knew she needed to go to college and so afraid of all the larger comments — tried in vain to talk to her mom about that while walking the dog.

The last time I saw a kid that intent on a parent was to borrow a credit card or buy clothes. She deserves good things to happen to her. I really wanted to like this show as I feel like my family and so many others can relate to everyday financial crunches. However I have to agree with an above post, on more than one episode I have noticed the kids wearing multiple Under Armour outfits.

That brand of clothing is expensive for what it is as I have three boys and have purchased it a few times here and there. Also seeing the mother make frequent trips to Starbucks absolutely infuriated me! Starbucks and Under Armour IS NOT a necessity, especially when youre worrying how bills will be paid and how youre going to provide groceries for your family!

That is a no brainer sorry. And to place themselves on national tv doing this under scrutiny lol blows my mind. Needless to say I have not watched or will not ever again. I agree. She did teaching, tutoring, cleaning houses, she did work in the fitness industry for a time, she waited tables.

Let her drink her beverage of choice. She was the only one bringing in steady income. I was really mad not only did Todd not seem to do any other jobs, he constantly had the boys age 14 and 17 with him doing parts of the labor. It could not have been that steady. Then he is complaining to the older girls to cook dinner. Or laura to do dinner. The older girls were in school, then worked a part time job. Laura worked more than 40 hours. Take 20 minutes to grill chicken or set the crock pot.

How lazy. If anything Rex and Dillon and Whitney and Rex shoud have been making dinner. None of them appeared to have steady employment.

Doing Todds work and a few hours selling popcorn at games leaves plenty of free time. Heather Bailey and Laura had plenty on their plate. When you have money you can make mistakes spending it and be okay. I think Todd was always looking out for the big payout. I read he finally took a type job. I hope he can take direction from a boss. With a family with medical stuff going on you need the insurance and steady income.

Unless you we willing to sit on a cash pile of 6 months living. She may have seems spoiled and dense but she was a kid. A kid who did manage to work at a job in addition to going to high school. We saw him work the boys or get a job and totally lose it because instead of doing the job he spent time trying to get other work off it. I felt bad the mom had to carry the load with reliable income.

The show was poorly edited. What about child support. Especially with MS and asthma and the heart meds needed. Three member of the family needed more medical care than an annual physical. Not to mention if dad worked at labor he would need insurance in case of injury.

And it just got weird with him suddenly asking the kids for money to sleep in the house. They had money ethic. Even the 15 year olds were paying some expenses from money earned from outside mom and dad.

It made no sense instead of spending a few dollars on heart med, she decided to spend hundreds on a couple of raw meals loaded with oil. I really wanted to love it and watched them all. Me and my wife watched this family when we were going through the samething. Our family is smaller, but I have to give props to this family for waking up everyday and moving forward. I think this reality show is the only one which was trying not to sell something. I mean, by now all the other reality shows are using the networks for free advertising.

The best part about the other shows, these people are already rich and getting richer by advertising a jewelry line, perfume line or clothing line and so on!

Downsized is a true reality show. They were on top and now their on the bottom struggling to make it day by day just like millions of families today! I will miss the show! You realy need to bring this show back. This a real life struggle eveyday for people. My whole family enjoyed this show, and we Hate to see it go. We love you guys!!! I was just wondering when the third season was coming back on and saw this!

Very upsetting. This was one of my favorite shows!!!! This show was great and I loved watching a more realistic show! Disappointing that they are off the air; I spent all weekend watching both seasons. Great family to watch. I am so sad to hear that Downsized will not be returning.

What a shame. I will really miss this program. Maybe TLC will pick it up. I am going to write them about this show and maybe if everyone who loves this show does that perhaps they will see there is a market for it and put it on their Network along with some of their other family reality shows. I loved watching the Bruce family be a family under very stressful conditions. The love and commitment they have towards one another is truly an example of courage and commitment under fire.

They are an example for many families in the same situation. So sorry to hear.. My family enjoyed watching this show…We were rooting for this family.. A show that many families can relate too. Honest, good, holsome family, trying to keep the american dream alive through their personal struggles. WeTV, what were you thinking? I loved that show. My family is going through the same situatons.

I also have MS have a blended family and a child with a cronic illnes that seems to flair up only when we are seeing the light of day. I really wish their show would get picked back up.

I am so disappointed. Our family loves Downsized and were looking on WEtv for the upcoming season premiere. I know, I loved this show and was cheering for the family. They make a great blended family and I loved how they supported each other. Bring the show back!!!! I am really disappointed the show has been cancelled. Was looking forward to the new season.

What is WEtv thinking!! Downsizing was about real life, I know we live just like this folks on downsizing we are struggling too. My family liked this program it showed that we are not the only ones struggling. I am so sad to hear they are not returning to television. What a uplifting caring family. The everyday struggles they face are what most people go thru, and they all pull together.

Very sad to see this not being renewed. Shame on WE. I wish this family all the best, Todd, you are one of the best male role models on television too. Good luck Bruce family!! I have been checking back to see when Downsize might return. I am sorry to see the We has decided to pull the plug. A real shame. Good Luck Bruce family. What a bummer Downsized will not return for a third season. I am so disappointed to see it go.

Please WE reconsider. This is the only show I have ever watched on your network and it is a great one. It is a great story with real value in the current economy! Good luck to the Bruce family. Thumbs down to WE!! Many prayers to the family for Health and Happiness…WE tv needs to re-evaluate programming…. I love this show, and like the others who left comments, I agree that the crappy shows are left and the good shows are taken away. The good shows are taken away and the crappy shows are left?

Whatever Kathy, sounds like a shallow and oversimplified take on television scheduling, frankly, kinda like believing that the worse things in life only seem to happen to good people and that only the good die young.

You and your cronies need to expand your minds and not spend all your lives speaking in cliches and embracing tired metaphors. LMAO at your characterization of watching a one hour show once per week during the season. My wife and I enjoyed the show together as well as other entertainment such as the Tampa Bay Rays and Buccaneers games. Perhaps a selection of a mate in places other than a Web site would change your perception of the opposite sex.

Having similar financial issues, it was a crushing blow to know they will not be on again. We, and I am sure many of us in the viewing realm,can totally relate to the difficulties they faced. Boo to you, We TV, for the junk you do promote. Hate to hear this!!! I know! They will keep something stupid like Bad Girls club…or whatever its called, but cancel Downsized.

One of a few shows I actually took some advice from. I am really going to miss that show. Where can we tell the WE people about their bad desicion? Excellent point! That Stinks! Corporations continued to downsize after the economy recovered. Downsized - Full Cast Crew.

A reality series following a large blended family as they work to cut their day-to-day expenses after. They have the buyers so theyre looking for people to supply quality products to those buyers.

Downsized just got official word that WEtv has decided to discontinue our show. Hosted by Bob Harper the USA Network reality show promises to follow the journeys of 12 brave contestants as they transform their lives from the inside out.

To become smaller in size by reductions in personnel or assets. IHOP wasnt the only restaurant chain hard-hit by the pandemic in fact just about all restaurants in the US. Aired on CC tv Their home was foreclosed on as was their investment condo and they went through their savings and. Its been nearly two years since the WeTV show Downsized was cancelled.

If not the world have had to make some pretty drastic and expensive changes in the way they operate if they are even able to remain in business at all. One of the stars of the show Laura Bruce informed The Ashley of this yesterday. Ethan and Grayson Dolan aka The Dolan Twins have gone through a lot of different life experiences in the public eye at just 19 years old.

In the beginning of launching the brand I was still working full-time as a medical sales representative so the program allowed me to let Amazon handle things like customer.
