<p id=”par-1_80″>Season 19 of <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/sister-wives/”><em>Sister Wives</em> </a>won’t follow the same trajectory as past seasons. Season 18 of the series covered a year in the Brown family’s life, ending in 2022. Season 19 picked up where season 19 left off. While fans expect the season to contain about the same number of episodes as season 18, <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/sister-wives-season-19-timeline-inconsistency-spotted.html/”>the timeline </a>will span more than 18 months. While that is a positive thing for fans, it could mean the series is preparing to wrap up.</p>

<p id=”par-2_121″>Janelle Brown and Christine Brown recently sat down for an interview with <a href=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoizKfGiC3s” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>E! News</a>. During their chat, the former sister wives discussed everything from their current family life to season 19 of the series. In a shocking admission, the duo revealed that season 19 will bring fans much closer to real-time. Reportedly, the season covers all of 2023 and part of 2024. Fans might be happy about the time jump. Still, it could mean the series is coming to a close. After all, it would feel like an organic place to end the series. There is officially no longer a plural family, as both Janelle Brown and Meri Brown leave Flagstaff, Arizona, behind, just as Christine Brown did years ago. </p>

<p id=”par-3_84″>While it is impossible to say what TLC will do with the series moving forward, the packed timeline for season 19 is an anomaly. The network may be speeding up the timeline and bringing fans current before calling it a day on the long-running series. In the months following <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/sister-wives-star-garrison-brown-dead-at-25.html/”>Garrison Brown’s death,</a> there were calls for the network to cancel the series because of the tragedy. While the network went ahead with season 19, it would make sense for them to leave it there.</p>

<p id=”par-4_95″>The sped-up timeline isn’t the only indication that fans won’t see more of the Browns after season 19 ends. Movements within the family could suggest the show is coming to an end, too. While the family is spread apart for season 19, <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/sister-wives-janelle-brown-made-move-east.html/”>Janelle Brown’s recent move to the East Coast </a>might make it even more difficult for the network to film the family as a cohesive unit, especially if they aren’t spending much time together. The cost of filming and editing the series into episodes may not be worth it to the network moving forward.</p>

<p id=”par-5_48″>Fans likely won’t know what is happening with the series for many months. TLC traditionally only announces renewals weeks before a new season airs, and canceled shows rarely get a big send-off. Following the Browns on social media will likely get fans answers long before the network responds.</p>
