‘Jill And Jessa: Counting On’ News: TLC Keeping Show Because Of High Ratings? [VIDEO]
It looks like nothing—and that's nothing—is going to stop the Duggars from doing what they do best, and that's documenting their lives on reality television.
In fact, there's a new report that says there's a good chance that the Duggars' lifeline has been extended by TLC as their spin-off show, Jill and Jessa: Counting On, is doing so well in the ratings that they are not worried about the handful of advertisers who have boycotted the show and family.
According to Forbes Magazine on Friday, Jill and Jessa: Counting On brought in over 3 million viewers during their three-part series last month. Even though the TLC network initially axed the Duggar's long-time running show 19 Kids & Counting last summer because of Josh Duggar's multiple sex scandals, it looks like they've given the Arkansas-based stars the second chance they needed to continue keeping their names in the headlines.
What's more, sisters Jill and Jessa Duggar have been the family's breakout stars, with Jill garnering 1.5 million followers on her Instagram account while Jessa has over 1.8 million followers as well.
And while their popularity continues to soar, many advertisers such as Walgreens, General Mils, Wrigley and Payless have boycotted the show. Somehow that's not going to stop fans from tuning in for the second season, which is currently being filmed by Jill and Jessa.
Tell us Enstars readers, what do you think? Should the Duggars continue to stay on the air with their spin-off show, despite the advertiser boycotts? Drop us a line in the comments section below.
