LOVE IS PATIENT, LOVE IS KIND, LOVE TAKES A TWIST IN TLC'S NEW SERIES "STRANGE LOVE"

[Los Angeles, CA] - TLC's new series follows the lives of people who prove that there's someone for everyone. The series explores romantic, provocative and inspiring love journeys including: a woman with hair measuring fifty feet who is married to a hairdresser, a full-time Santa looking for his Mrs. Claus and a woman with a big heart and size 48 NN breasts. STRANGE LOVE premieres Wednesday, March 4th at 10/9c.

During the course of the season we also get to know other unique individuals including:

LaRue

Now that her children are all grown up, LaRue, recently single, is ready to mingle. She is looking for someone to have and to hold. Her potential soul mate needs to accept her mind, her body, her soul and her seventeen-inch nails.

Mikel

When she first met her future husband in high school it was love at first sight. Mikel and her husband want more than anything to renew their vows, but Mikel knows that finding a wedding dress to fit her 99-inch hips will be anything but easy.

Cathie

Cathie has the classic hourglass figure; the only thing is that her waist measures 15 inches. She has achieved this by using corsets over the course of years to shrink her waist with the support of her orthopedic surgeon husband.

STRANGE LOVE is produced by Thinkfactory Media for TLC.
