'19 Kids And Counting' Reboot: TLC Brings Back The Duggars To Regain Millions Of Fans Lost?
After several negative comments gained from the "19 Kids and Counting" series, TLC was rumored to be making a reboot of the cancelled reality TV show.
According to Star Pulse, the entertainment network might still be considering "19 Kids and Counting" reboot amidst the family issue faced by the Duggars.
Huffington revealed that TLC lost $19 million when they pulled out the hit series in the small screen. The site emphasized that if overlooking the damages the family had caused to the company means that the company could regain back "some of the millions" they've lost. If this materializes, it shouldn't come as a shock that a reboot would be launched in 2016.
During TLC's Television Critics Association panel, Executive Vice President and General Manager Nancy Daniels addressed the queries regarding the company's silence amidst the issue.
"Every decision we've made has been done very thoughtfully and very carefully about what is in the best interests of the people involved and the network," Daniels said, according to Variety.
"Our first priority is making sure that there's a health and well-being of our families first and foremost."
Daniels also spoke about the state of the Duggar family following Josh Duggar's sex scandal which caused their TV series to end.
"We had our challenges. As soon as we found out about [Josh Duggar], we did work with the family," Daniels said.
"We just aired a three-part special before the holidays that did very well. We had over three million viewers. The audience cares about these girls," said Daniels.
Meanwhile, Duggar family was spotted with TLC cameras in Arkansas according to a Facebook page.
"I've got two Duggar sightings that I would like to share," read the site.
"The Duggars were seen filming at a lumber yard last week in their area. Yes, filming. They spend three hours there and bought some lumber. That is the state of the Duggars. They're as exciting as a stack of wood," they continued.
Since the Duggar family was spotted with TLC cameras, it is to be expected that a "19 Kids and Counting" reboot will kick-off anytime soon.
