TLC is parting ways with the Duggar family reality series “Counting On” following Josh Duggar’s April arrest on federal charges of downloading and possessing child pornography.

“TLC will not be producing additional seasons of Counting On,” the network said in a statement Tuesday. “TLC feels it is important to give the Duggar family the opportunity to address their situation privately.”

On Tuesday evening, Jinger Duggar Vuolo and her husband, Jeremy Vuolo, issued a statement via Instagram thanking TLC for its kindness and for the opportunity to be on the show.

“Counting On” was spun off in December 2015, initially focusing on the older Duggar kids, minus Josh. His wife and their six children — two of whom were born after the cheating scandal — ultimately participated during the show’s 11 seasons, along with the rest of the extended family.

2. Wow that's sad

It took for one of them to get busted with essentially child snuff to get cancelled? Wow we have set the bar extremely low for scumbags to get cancelled

4. TLC is a POS

Blocked it a long time ago, along with Faux Lies.

9. I can still recall when TLC was actually educational.

Then it became about as educational as watching The Jerry Springer Show.

Surprised they didn't have a series called Cat House, about some odd family living with over 200 cats.

with a gazillion cats, dogs, birds etc...

7. If you have ever watched any of these Duggar shows, or continued to watch the networks that

made them after you learned what their deal was, you can fuck yourself all the way off of a cliff.

8. In other words, the situation reached a point

at which TLC couldn't continue to exploit it profitably.

10. Makes you wonder if there were

some lawsuits against the network. Somebody must have had an idea!
