Prepare to say goodbye to TLC show “19 Kids and Counting.”

The family-centric reality show is being pulled from the network’s TV schedule one day after Josh Duggar issued an apology following molestation allegations, Page Six has learned.

It’s unclear if the network has made any permanent decisions regarding the show’s future but information about the show remains on the network’s site as of Friday.

Good. Fecundity is not a talent

Heartbreaking. What he did was inexcusable. It was disgusting. In this case, the only winner is satan and evil. So sad to see all of this.

While the original show may be cancelled, make sure to tune in for the spin-off TV series, 19 Years in State Prison and Counting.

I’ve often wondered how the family supported themselves. Jim Bob never goes to work. They hint that he is involved in real estate but never really say what he does for a living.

I wonder if the fact is that TLC money has been supporting the family all these years.

Would be interesting to know how the family has made ends meet financially.

I just got a feeling Mama BooBoo is behind this... Or TLC has very poor judgment/research in programming.

Exactly; this family is only famous because they’re kind of a freak-show/sideshow and I don’t think perving on the kids is something that should be tolerated by any network.

People make mistakes, sometimes grave mistakes. It sounds like he took steps and has sought and no doubt received God’s grace.

It was mentioned that Jim Bob served as senator for a while and has a fat pension as a result.

I never understood the attraction but I don’t watch television. These reality shows are professional wrestling without the wrestling.

Well, with all the time it has been on the air, and with a few of their kids grown up, it’s not really 19 and counting anymore. You can probably stream the episodes elsewhere.

Look at the credits at the end of the show. They get plenty of free stuff from advertisers/promoters, too.

They're probably all now rushing to write tell-all books to keep the $$$ coming.

This will not be the last we hear from the Duggars.

After the prosecutor starts, it may be:

19 Counts and Counting.

“People make mistakes,”

A mistake is when you dial a wrong phone number. “Oh I meant to reach for the Kellog’s Corn Flakes at the store but diddled my sister instead”.

Of course, this will be what big families
and Christians are all about according
to the destroyers of the fabric of
American society. Only God can save
this country. Always been that way.

Don’t “learn” anything worthwhile on TLC.

Excellent.

I never thought I would see the day when conservatives would line up it make excuses for and minimize the actions of a Sibling Molesting Child Predator.

Once upon a time, TLC actually had some very good programs before the Discovery Comm. liberals turned it into a sideshow network.

Honey Boo-Boo, My Big Fat Life, Sister Wives and more garbage
Anyone watching any of this crap must have a pathetic existence.

First, they came for the bikers, but I didn't say anything because I'm not a biker.

Then they came for the Duggars, but I didn't say anything, because I wasn't a Duggar.

Then they came for me, but there was no one left to stand with me...

What he did was disgusting, reprehensible, and inexcusable, but it was 12 years ago, and it would seem there has not been any issue since, which would indicate to me that the actions taken by the family and by Josh himself were appropriate. This is nothing more than an attack on Christians, that's all it is. And as I mentioned previously, the ONLY winners are Satan and evil. That's it.
