'''''Counting On''''' (formerly '''''Jill & Jessa: Counting On''''') is an American reality television show that aired on the cable channel [[TLC (TV network)|TLC]] from 2015 to 2020. A spin-off show of ''[[19 Kids and Counting]]'', it features the Duggar family: [[Jessa Duggar Seewald|Jessa Seewald]], [[Jinger Vuolo]], [[Joy-Anna Forsyth]], and fifteen of their sixteen siblings, as well as their parents [[Jim Bob Duggar|Jim Bob]] and Michelle. The show was created in the wake of the [[Josh_Duggar#Molestation_scandal|molestation scandal]] concerning [[Josh Duggar]] and subsequent cancellation of ''19 Kids and Counting''.<ref>{{cite web|title=Duggar sisters Jill and Jessa return in "Counting On"|url=http://www.cbsnews.com/news/duggar-sisters-jill-and-jessa-return-in-counting-on/|work=[[CBS News]]|date=October 19, 2015 |access-date=March 6, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170307204207/http://www.cbsnews.com/news/duggar-sisters-jill-and-jessa-return-in-counting-on/|archive-date=March 7, 2017|url-status=live|df=mdy-all}}</ref>

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#2021_arrest,_trial,_and_conviction_for_CSAM_(child_sexual_abuse_material)|Josh Duggar's arrest]].<ref>{{cite web |last1=D'Zurilla |first1=Christie |title=TLC finally cancels Duggar series 'Counting On' after Josh Duggar's child-porn arrest |url=https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/tv/story/2021-06-30/josh-dugger-tlc-cancels-counting-on-series |work=Los Angeles Times |access-date=5 July 2021 |date=June 30, 2021}}</ref>
