P.T. Barnum made Charles S. Stratton, better known as General Tom Thumb, a celebrity in the mid-1800s and orchestrated Stratton's marriage to Lavinia Warren into a huge event breathlessly covered by the day's press.

Barnum also noted that there's a sucker born every minute. Which brings us to FOX's latest exercise in reality TV, "The Littlest Groom."

The two-part special, scheduled to premiere Monday, Feb. 16, is essentially "The Bachelor" for little people. Viewers will meet Glen, a 23-year-old salesman who stands 4-foot-5. He'll go on a series of group and individual dates with 12 women -- also little people -- in hopes of finding love.

There is, of course, a twist. After Glen eliminates some of the women, the show will bring in women of normal height as well. The conclusion to the special, airing the week after the premiere, will find Glen narrowing his choices to two, then choosing the woman he likes best.

"The Littlest Groom" is from LMNO Productions, the people behind FOX's "Man vs. Beast" and the Travel Channel's "World's Best."
