Jill Duggar explains the ‘urgency’ that she felt when it came to continuing ’19 Kids and Counting’

TLC aired 19 Kids and Counting starting in September 2008, and the show ended in May 2015. The show was extremely popular and profitable for the network, but it all came crashing down thanks to Josh Duggar. Josh admitted to sexually abusing his younger sisters, prompting TLC to cancel the series and later resurrect it without Josh. The series came back as Counting On.
