The Little Nyonya (Chinese: 小娘惹) is a 34-episode drama serial which debuted on 25 November 2008 on Singapore's free-to-air channel, MediaCorp TV Channel 8. The storyline, which involves an extended Peranakan family in Singapore, is set in the 1930s and spans 70 years. The series was partly sponsored by the Media Development Authority of Singapore. The drama ended its run on 5 January 2009.

This drama was produced by MediaCorp in celebration of the channel's 45-year anniversary (45载光芒·8方贺台庆). This drama took a year of research and four months to film. More than 150 behind-the-scenes staff were involved in the production, and the cast also went to Penang and Malacca to film part of the series. The series' production cost was also the highest ever for MediaCorp, with a pair of beaded shoes costing S$1,200, while a dining table costs S$15,000.

Although MediaCorp's series normally have episode counts which ends in multiples of 5 (20, 25, 30 etc.), The Little Nyonya was, however, extended from the initial 30 episodes to 34 episodes due to over-runs in filming. Possibly as a result, two episodes were aired on Mondays, starting from 15 December 2008.
