Counting On

Counting On (formerly Jill & Jessa: Counting On) is an American reality television show that aired on the cable channel TLC from 2015 to 2020. A spin-off show of 19 Kids and Counting, it features the Duggar family: Jessa Seewald, Jinger Vuolo, Joy-Anna Forsyth, and fifteen of their sixteen siblings, as well as their parents Jim Bob and Michelle. The show was created in the wake of the molestation scandal concerning Josh Duggar and subsequent cancellation of 19 Kids and Counting.

The show follows the lives of the older Duggar offspring, with the early episodes focusing specifically on Jill Dillard and Jessa Seewald. After its first season, the show expanded to include the rest of the Duggar siblings and their respective families. The series was cancelled in 2021, due to Josh Duggar's arrest for receiving and possessing child pornography. In March 2026, seventh eldest Duggar child Joseph Duggar was arrested for "lewd and lascivious behavior", including molestation of a victim younger than 12, regarding an incident that occurred in 2020- a year before the show was cancelled- with a then 9-year-old girl in Panama City Beach, Florida while on a family vacation. His wife Kendra, who married Joseph on a 2017 episode of Counting On, would soon afterwards be criminally charged for this alleged incident of child molestation as well.
