I didn't see the episode, but Jill was bested by a box of minute rice, and she wanted to deliver babies? Bullet dodged. I will stick up for her, and all the other kids. She's got perfectly normal intelligence, just no access to real education. Ten or fifteen years with a private tutor would fix that, but I doubt Derrick wants to drop coin on getting a wife that thinks for herself.

Those fantasy worlds are still intact. Now that the mask has slipped on the Duggars, I don't think people can forget that under the smiles, there's a creepy incestuous world of lies. I think the leghumping fans will move on soon enough.

A tube of retin-a would serve Jessa, and all of her brothers well. I've read the video postprocessing is used on EVERY reality show. Even 19kac. I'd love to hear from people who've met the Duggars IRL how they fare compared to the photos and video they push out. Given the nicest thing anyone in her family can say about her, is that she's a bitch, yeah, Jessa's a mean girl.

Yikes, Zimmerman had close ties to the Duggars before everything blew up. I doubt what she did was legal, and I'm sure InTouch had everything worth getting before they launched the first article.

She looks (understandably) depressed.

Only the first episode woudl get ratings, for the trainwreck factor. After that? Watch Jessa do her nails, while Jill drinks contaminated Nepalese water and gets diarrhea? No thanks.

I've read behind-the-scens stuff that says it took about three weeks to bring the story together. It's obvious the family knew on Digging In Day. On another note, now that the source is public, doesn't the police chief have and incredibly good case for slander? Seems like she'd win in court.

Being physically abused isn't necessary. You have to be the type of person willing dehumaize others, even your own kids. Stanley Milgram would have a field day with blanket-training moms. May he RIP.

It's one PR misstep after another. The had a 10 year cakewalk, and were never forced to learn how to deal with these things properly. I'm sure the tabloids will have fun catching another obvious lie.

Heh. Someone send this to the media.

Because it's an old picture?

19kac has a page on TVtropes, for those that've never seen it: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Series/NineteenKidsAndCounting

Besides, they use SOS too...not great but better than Wisdom Booklet alone.

She'd been on the DL for a few weeks. We weren't sup[posed to speculate. Maybe Michelle really did say 'lesbian conspiracy'!

So glad they've been pulled. Jill&Jessa are still doing talks for Alive.org, though.

I really hope the mods pull posts related to the leaker. It's irresponsible to post their names in public. No one wants incestuous molestation associated with their brand, or philosophy.

I think that's an old picture. They're definitely not flying anywhere, plus they have a private airline. I still think they're locked to the compound. They're doing a church talk next week, I think. That'll be the first time they're out.

Sarah Palin did this. The Duggars likely do too.

I don't like Hof going after the girls like that. Tacky and tasteless joking. They've been through sexual hell already. Enough. Yes, even Jill and Jessa. Ok, THIS made me laugh, because it's true. At least the Bunny Ranch openly admits to whoring out, unlike the Duggs. Oh, I forgot, since we're on fanfic and crossovers:

FWIW, I think we've confabulated two different interviews, because I remember a version where Michelle pulls a jacket over Josie shoulders. My youtube-fu fails me in finding that one.

Here it is. "Duggar Reception" found it on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECKuKNj5rKs Knowing what we all know now, that a 5 year old is sexually defrauding and at fault, I have this to say to Michelle (Language warning): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cStRa4OiUlQ I hope the oopma loompa bronzer melts her countenance off.

Pft. Only if the girls are the Dominant.

I'm just saying - he's the same age as Josh and everything!

SBC is quite a different theology for Jill. Maybe that can wedge open her mind a little, even if they need to use a (metaphoric) crowbar.
