Why is ‘Sister Wives’ Season 19 not airing this week? Here’s what we know so far
Fans of 'Sister Wives' might be disappointed to hear that the upcoming episode of Season 19 won't air this Sunday, December 22. The show will be taking a one-week break and will return with its next episode on Sunday, December 29. This is reportedly due to scheduling adjustments for the holiday season. With Christmas just around the corner, TLC has chosen to delay the airing of new episodes to avoid conflicting with holiday programming and family festivities. This is not an uncommon move by networks, as many shows go on hiatus around major holidays to ensure the largest viewership possible upon return.
While it may be frustrating for fans invested in the ongoing drama of the Brown family, the good news is that when the show returns on December 29, it will pick up right where it left off. The new episode promises more insight into the tension between Kody Brown and his wives, as well as how the dynamics in the family are changing.
