Well, that was a big surprise … not!<\/p>\n

The Learning Channel has canceled “19 Kids and Counting” in the wake of an admission by one of the “19 kids” that he molested young girls when he was a teenager; some of the girls were his own sisters.<\/p>\n

Josh Duggar’s been missing from family publicity photos. He’s become a sort of persona non grata <\/em>while TLC decided what to do with the popular reality-TV series.<\/p>\n

This cancellation had to occur. The Duggar family portrays itself as a group of deeply religious individuals. No, they aren’t “perfect,” as one or two of the daughters have sought to remind us. Then again, Mom and Dad Duggar have\u00a0become politically active, supporting candidates who purport to stand for\u00a0strict morality\u00a0and, um, “family values.”<\/p>\n

Well, young Josh messed up. He tarnished his very public family’s name and reputation.<\/p>\n

TLC has decided it cannot continue the charade. The Duggars can now continue their rehabilitation in private, away from the TV cameras’ glare.<\/p>\n

Good. So long, Duggars.<\/p>\n\n
