I think they already got a couple of offers for reality shows, and said no.

End of year video.

And as for reality shows:
Included in all those original emails were dozens of inquiries from television production companies who wanted to produce reality shows on our family videos. WHAT?! We really are incredibly boring. Penn and I argue over where we spend money and the fact he can’t get his underwear into the hamper — but we don’t have real table-flipping drama. Recently, one of those companies asked if they could focus on our growing business and the inherent drama during productions. This group wants the show to be uplifting and positive, while showing the natural chaos of deadline-driven work. We trust these people with our story. Stay tuned.

It's been interesting to watch. This sort of independent consulting and production bunsiness combined with the occasional flash of viral interest is exactly the sort of thing a lot of people seem to be moving into making their livings online doing. I think there are several elements of this that tie into what will be considered a "normal" way to make a living in the economy of the future once all the traditional jobs are gone. But this is the first time I've seen an almost stereotypical suburban family doing it; until now it's been mostly young single artist sorts.
For our small business, we were in over our heads. We lost out on some great opportunities because we didn’t have enough people in place to do the work. We quickly needed to hire a team to help handle the workload. This is the point when I wanted to curl up into a ball and wave the white flag. The stress of providing for other families, as well as ours, was (and continues to be) overwhelming.

But it's not all future economy stuff. Here he's interfacing with the more traditional economy and talks about "hiring" people. In the new economy he'd more likely be talking about "collaborating" instead, in a relationship where neither party works for the other so much as they both work together and share in the proceeds. So he's not gone totally new economy yet.

That was her writing, not him. But yeah, it's interesting seeing them doing this, I give them props. I couldn't.
