7 Little Johnstons fans have said for years that the show has been stale in terms of compelling storylines. Is TLC purposely making Brice Bolden the villain this season for drama?

7 Little Johnstons Storylines Have Grown Stale According To Fans

7 Little Johnstons has been on the air since 2015. Almost 10 years and 14 seasons later, that is a lot of footage TLC has filmed of the family from Georgia. Part of the draw for many years was watching all of the Johnston kids grow up. Now that they are all adults, they are transitioning into a new aspect of their lives.

For the last few seasons in particular, 7 Little Johnstons fans largely agree that the TLC show has grown boring. Many viewers are tired of seeing Trent and Amber explore their raunchy activities behind closed doors. Viewers also agree that the show nowadays just isn’t as interesting as it once was.

TLC Introduced Joose Jeskanen, Giving The Show A Boost

TLC has certainly done some things to breathe new life into 7 Little Johnstons episodes. One of those things was introducing Joose Jeskanen from Finland. He unofficially became the eighth Johnston family member, as he traveled from Finland to spend time in Georgia.

This was exactly the kind of new life the show needed. 7 Little Johnstons fans loved watching Joose experience life in America for the first time. The culture shock alone was enough to carry the season, and the family taking a trip to Finland was also big news.

7 Little Johnstons Season 14 Dragging Brice Bolden For Drama?

While introducing Joose was a feel-good move, many fans don’t like the way this new season is shaping up, particularly with the show’s treatment of Brice Bolden.

Elizabeth Johnston is in tears as she talks about her breakup with Brice Bolden in recent scenes. However, the narrative is all about what Brice did wrong, and how their lives didn’t mesh because of what he did, or didn’t do. It’s obvious to many viewers that TLC has no problem making Brice the scapegoat for a good storyline.

Not all 7 Little Johnstons viewers are fans of Brice Bolden. However, many watchers are taking issue with how TLC is editing current scenes, particularly with the way they are throwing him under the bus for the sake of drama.

• One 7 Little Johnstons viewer said: “Learning to write love letters, constantly pointing the finger at B&E relationship being one sided, Liz did nothing wrong, Brice did nothing correct! I’m already over it!”
• Another commenter said: “What annoys me is that Brice has been the topic of every conversation regarding Liz and he never gets to say his side of the story. She regurgitates her Woe is me spiel every episode. So boring.”
