With TLC’s reputation for expanding its popular franchises, “1000-lb Sisters” fans are abuzz. They are speculating about potential spin-offs. The question on many minds: could any of the Slaton family members carry their own show? Opinions are sharply divided, especially regarding Chris Combs and his wife, Brittany.
1000-lb Sisters: Chris & Brittany: Next TLC Stars or “Boring AF”? Fans DIVIDED!
The idea of a show centered on Chris and Brittany has elicited strong, mixed reactions. One online fan suggested, “do you all think TLC is gearing up for a Brittany and Chris show? They are the only ones I personally would watch.”
Some viewers agree, with one commenting, “I’m here for that spin-off, honestly. They’re an interesting couple, and Chris is so likable.” Another “would absolutely watch chris and Brittany esp if she does have a baby or adopt.”
However, a significant portion of the audience is unconvinced. “Chris and Brittany would be boring AF,” a blunt comment read. Another fan quipped, “Darlene and her dog would be more exciting than Chris and Brittany.”
Brittany, in particular, is seen by some as not engaging enough for a lead role. “[Brittany] doesn’t even talk just makes dirty faces at everything the whole time,” one viewer observed. Others worry about their content, with one user stating, “No I don’t want to see their maga fundie BS.”

1000-lb Sisters: Amanda’s Drama Potential: Could She Carry Her Own Show?
Amanda Halterman is another name frequently mentioned as a spin-off candidate. “The only one who could do it would be Amanda, I think,” a fan speculated. Her “attitude would certainly drive a lot of drama,” and she appears “quite comfortable being on camera.” However, not everyone is on board. “I like Chris, but I wouldn’t watch anything centered around Amanda. She’s too hateful,” one person declared.
1000-lb Sisters: What About Tammy or Amy?
While the original show centers on Amy and Tammy Slaton, their potential for solo spin-offs also sparks debate. Some “would like to see Tammy.” Others suggest a “positive show focused on Tammy… Set her up with a nutritionist, a trainer, a counselor… Help her get a job, fix up her house.” However, some feel Tammy “hasn’t found who she is” yet for a solo venture. As for Amy, one harsh comment suggested viewers would “rather watch Amy be a walking shit show.”
1000-lb Sisters: “NO MORE!” Overload Fears & “Hillbilly Kardashians” Label Haunt Spin-off Talk
A strong contingent of viewers is firmly against any spin-offs. “Oh please no – no more! No more!” one fan pleaded. Another simply stated, “How about none.”
There’s a fear that the current show is already “struggling to fill time.” Many believe “Amy and Tammy are the show. The rest are just supporting characters. None would be able to pull an audience.”
The evolution of “1000-lb Sisters” has also drawn criticism. With the original stars having lost significant weight, some feel the “original premise is lost, it’s just becoming a hillbilly Kardashians.”
