'One Big Happy Family' (9 and 9:30PM, TLC) series premiere
This six-episode series comes just in time to inspire those New Year's health resolutions. The Coles -- dad Norris, wife Tameka, and teens Amber and Shayne -- are the titular big happy family: Each of the Coles weighs more than 300 pounds, and after one of them gets some alarming medical news, the whole family decides to make losing weight a Coles priority. The series will follow the family's efforts to eat healthier and exercise more, as well as their quest to understand how and why their bad food habits have persisted.

They've done just about every variation of little people show you can imagine, so as executive producer Mike Duffy said, it's not exploitation. "Little People, Big World is about little people living in a big world. This is about big people living in a little world -- fat people living in a skinny world." Doesn't that sound so much better?

They've found a family of four tipping the scales at over 1,400 pounds. While there's no prize money involved, the family is determined to lose some weight. The six episode series, One Big Happy Family, will follow them on their journey of self-improvement with different episodes spotlighting different family members. Style network has already met a good response to their chronicle of Ruby, a 477-pound woman looking to lose weight.
