Fun fact about Cake Boss, it was my first introduction to anything gay. They made a cake for a gay wedding, and I watched that episode with my mom when I was like six or seven, and even though my (very religious) mom made sure to tell me how “wrong” it was, I didn’t see why, because it was presented so normally in that episode. So like, thanks for that Cake Boss
Oddly enough, Say Yes to the Dress was the same thing for me. I think it was right when same-sex marraige was legalized in New York, and there were two brides that planned to be like the first ones to get married the day it was instated? Something along those lines. (I didn't think anything of it at the time. Figured out why about three years ago.)
"I did not trust that man" I mean, it turned out he was covering up his oldest son sexually abusing relatives, so your gut was pretty solid on this one.
I watched earlier versions of the show (it started at 17 Kids and Counting in 2008), i believe before Josh did any of the abuse, but still got that slightly-off vibe from Jim Bob and Michelle. I was raised with similar religious beliefs (but not so many siblings) and there are lots of ppl with that vacant look in the eyes because you have to suppress so much of yourself to be a Good Christian.
Very specific memory: when this channel had what I can only describe as an “Amish Phase” in which they suddenly began to produce a bunch of shows centred around Amish people before stopping, just as suddenly
Yes!!! Breaking Amish and it’s other spin offs was such a wild and also very interesting time for TLC. It sort of lead me to start looking into the Amish and finding out that they weren’t just sweet people living like the olden times and that there were lots of pretty insidious things about the communities involving abuse and the hiding of it
that happened in the uk on channel 4 as well i distinctly remember somewhere in the region of 6 months-2 years where they had like 5 different shows about british ppl learning what amish was LOL
I didn't know i was pregnant was very effective as birth control 😅 so many of them didn't show and then suddenly it's like IT'S NOT PEE YOUR WATER BROKE CONGRATS YOU'RE ABOUT TO BE IN PAIN WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT
Say yes to the dress is a very surprising show bc the more you watch it the more you’re realise how nice it is. Each episode and crew focuses on making the brides look and feel as beautiful and happy as they can be. It’s a super body positive show, and even when the dresses are tacky you never get disdain from the crew. Their only focus is to have a happy bride. So you often see them hyping them up and such. It ends up being a surprisingly feel good show. I suppose that’s why it’s so popular.
Yes, Say Yes to the Dress is suprisingly nice. I know that's their job, but I love how they try to find a dress that first and foremost makes the bride happy. Idk if it aired on TLC everywhere (it did in my country), but I also liked How to look good naked. Instead of a regular makeover show they really focused on making the participants feel good in their skin.
TLC went through this phase on producing shows on dwarfism families. like “little people big world” or “the little couple”. it seemed like a weird fascination they had with it.
Everything they do that becomes popular turns into a phase for TLC. The moment something proves popular, they'll milk it until it's lost it's charm, then just suddenly drop it as if it never happened.
“What not to wear” and “say yes to the dress” were some of my fave shows on tlc when I was younger. I didn’t care about any of the family shows, I just liked seeing people discuss fashion. Even though, I’m not fashionable at all myself haha Edit: I also really liked four weddings!
SAME!!! always watched it with my mom,I think I loved it that much cause in Holland weddings aren't such a big deal. And in the US it all seems so extravagant and big, some dresses are more expensive than a frikin car while my moms weddingdress was about a 120 euros.

one time when i was a kid i went for a sleepover at this girls house and she "had" to have the tv on while she slept but i grew up in a house with no tv so i absolutely could not fall asleep with it on. i ended up watching about 5 hours of that "john and kate plus 8" show...............horrifying. thank you for awakening the memory
omg i used to have to share a room on weekends with a girl who also 'had' to fall asleep to a best-of disney songs album...it was like a 30+ song album ....they haunt my subconscious
Yes oh my god when I would travel with my soccer team there’d be girls who said that so they would fall asleep and I would just watch like 3 hours of dr pimple popper and my 600 pound life. It fucked me up istg
i had this except the girl said she couldn’t fall asleep without an audio book playing in the background ??? yeah idk lmao but i ended up listening to the majority of the 4th harry potter book 😀
i was watching an episode of Four Weddings and this lady gave her friend’s wedding a 5/10 (or some low score i can’t remember) and one of the complaints was that the fish for dinner was “too fishy.” and my dad was like “...uh yeah, it’s fucking fish.”

I will never get this one Untold Stories of the ER episode A woman went to the bathroom, accidentally shit her baby into the toilet, and left the hospital 💀
My favorite TLC shows were “sex sent me to the ER” and “I didn’t know I was pregnant” the latter still scares me and the acting in the first is hilarious the re-enactments are hilarious my favorite one is “his penis is broken” that reenactment has me in tears every time I see it
OK THAT DUGGAR LOOK that's literally a cult tactic, people who are trained to recruit for cults are told to "look 3 inches past their eyes" so it's this really deep eerie stare. it's a real thing and it's TERRIFYING
To be fair, I remember growing up watching Jon & Kate Plus 8 and while Kate was highkey crazy, people demonized her way too much without acknowledging the fact that Jon did very little as a parent compared to her. Some episodes I felt so bad for her because she seemed so stressed out/strung out basically raising 8 kids on her own while Jon goofed off. It's okay to have fun obviously and kids love to be around the fun parent, but Kate seemed pigeonholed into the strict, mean parent role in a few episodes that could have been avoided if Jon had just... idk took things seriously and helped her out more. Kate was undeniably a nutcase though, don't get me wrong.
it might be hard to find legally now bc tlc is pretending it never happened (for context if anyone doesnt know, mama june was marrying a sexual predator who raped her daughter, and june KNEW)
I remember that! The bride had a really childish food palate and was super picky and had like no food at her wedding. the other girls were so hungry they went outside and ordered + ate a pizza in the parking lot LOL
the TLC shows i used to watch religiously: -jon and kate plus 8 -toddlers and tiaras -what not to wear -90 day fiancé -my strange addiction -say yes to the dress (i would always fall asleep watching TLC and when i woke up this would be on lol) -four weddings -cake boss (but i’m NOT a fan; ace of cakes is the superior cake man show!) -hoarders
I remember avoiding 19 Kids and Counting like the plague because to me, something did not sit right in my spirit about that family. Like I knew in due time something evil was brewing and it was going to explode in their faces. Long behold I was right. I can't even describe in words what the eldest brother did to his sisters. It's beyond disgusting.
You're lucky you had that gut feeling. I used to watch that show for many many years and when I found the ...things... Josh did and just how horrible of people they are really made me have a moment. I wish I wasn't so oblivious to what was going on
Some of the time it has nice moments, but some of the party members could be so horrible and nasty. I’d always feel bad for the bride. There’s a really low budget Canadian version and everyone is so stereotypically Canadian and pleasant
I actually participated in filming an episode with my sister (it never aired, we were way too normal lol) but it was actually super fun! The store staff and stylists and the TLC crew were all super sweet and it ended up being a really nice memory of my sisters wedding.
i LOOOOVE how instead of pretending you came up with that '10 year old with no concept of the value of money" thing you looked it up and realized you were just vaguely remembering something someone else said. I know that happens to me sometimes; you're awesome for being so honest and explaining that in such a seamless way.
I remember watching 19 kids and counting one time and one of the younger girls said she doesn't want to ever get married and the dad stared at the camera and said "she'll get over that..." and it terrifies me to this day.
The Duggar’s scared the hell out of me they’re obviously a cult And my dad was like their nice and I was like no! They’re not! And sister wives was scary too so ur right to be scared of them!
as someone in an international marriage (4 years, STILL working on getting a visa - tho tbf, it was all set to go this year and miss rona put a swift pause on that), 90 day fiance just makes my blood boil.
Same. I’ve been trying to get my hubs a visa for 5 years. We’ve spent around 50 k paying for it so far and still nothing. Then you have shows like this were they get it right away or people like nick Jonas who got married a year ago and he gets a visa for his new wife
"Untold Stories of the ER" actually mildly traumatized me as a child being of how horrifying the situations the patients went through and the effects really drove home the terror.
when i was like 7 i saw a clip of one episode and on yt it was called “too much sausage or a heart attack?” and from them on i was terrified of sausage and i still don’t really eat it to this day 💀
"What not to wear" was my favorite show as a kid. Me, my mom, and my younger sister watched it a lot. I was probably in elementary school when I recall seeing it the most. Everybody on that show who did the makeovers seemed so cool and friendly to little kid me lol. My favorite was the guy hairdresser who had the salt and pepper hair.
Yes!! I love that show. The hair and makeup people were always so sweet and tried to fix things if the people were pushed too much outside if their comfort zone
honestly sometimes i think about how "what not to wear" is probably the reason i started being interested in fashion and eventually became a costume designer lol
ok but the duggers must have hit the end of the rope with the "J" names because who in their right mind names their child Jinger instead of Ginger?? like did they already use up Jinny or like Jinora or something
no!!! jinger was only #5, they had plenty of names!! (they also have a Jana, Johannah, and Joy-Anna but they don’t have a Julie, a Jenna, or a Jessica). I could name children better than the duggar parents, and I don’t even have any children
don't forget TLC is responsible for body horror shows such as "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant" and "Sex Sent Me To the ER." keep it classy, TLC, never change.
this video felt like a fever dream and u didn't even mention here comes honey boo boo, toddlers in tiaras, or that show about amish people joining the modern world (i forget what it was called, breaking amish? leaving amish?) 😳 🥵🥵 CHILE ANYWAYS
actually there IS a reason why the duggar family is that big; their independent baptist religious group is actually more of a cult, specifically based on having as many children as possible. (people who have left that same religious group have described it as a "breeding cult")
"The theme song also... kind of scary. They just kept coming, one after another, again and again and it never ended." I guess they tried to to let the audience feel what the parents felt.
Michelle Duggers thousand yard stare with the little smile, haunts me to this day 😂😅. Untold stories of the ER got me interested in medicine as a kid and I eventually got into healthcare. My mom hated it because she’s squeamish but I binged it anyway 😂
The OG Say Yes to the Dress was relatively sane. The concept gets old after a while but fun either way. Actually, my friend's younger sister got to meet Randy Fenoli and try on dresses for Make A Wish and the whole family said he was so kind.
There are some american shows and movies that have a larger following in Brazil than in US Like White Chicks is a Brazilian national treasure even though it's not from Brazil
Are we not gonna talk about how the 19k&c were like Amish and sheltered their kids so bad that when they got married, they didn’t know abt life outside Edit: I meant Amish as in really cut off from society, not like the actual group of people:)
Not amish. I know they ARE quiverful, which is a cultish thing that focuses on having as many children as possible and extreme patriarchy. Maybe closer to Mormonism?
PigeonReads I made a ridiculously long comment about this earlier, but they are definitely Quiverful, and are part of a cult called IBLP. It's completely insane.
All I remember from Four Weddings is the one episode where a wedding has like, appetizers and cupcakes but no real entrees, so the other girls get hungry and go outside, 'secretly' order a pizza, and eat the pizza outside instead of continuing to judge the wedding
felt the need to comment cause i've been on youtube for like 15 years and this is the first time i've ever been on a video immediately after it was posted. a life goal has been achieved
its funny to remember that i too was into jon&kate plus 8 in middle school (?) and will always remember anxiously trying to fit in this special where they split up or something and you had to watch it live because it was 2008 and we couldn't record. its pretty crazy to think about how invested i was as a child in a very adult drama.
I love four weddings for the pettiness as well. Imagine getting invited to three parties that you know had a lot of effort made to put together and acting like your Gordon Ramsey rating the free food
my mom actually ended up blocking the tlc channel when i was a teenager. I vividly remember crying about it because I was so obsessed with my strange addiction
fun fact the Duggars are a 'quiverful' family which means they quite literally ARE trying to build an army, one that votes with fundamental christian priorities (learned from a yt channel I highly recommend; Fundie Fridays)

It's okay to have fun obviously and kids love to be around the fun parent, but Kate seemed pigeonholed into the strict, mean parent role in a few episodes that could have been avoided if Jon had just... idk took things seriously and helped her out more. Kate was undeniably a nutcase though, don't get me wrong.
kinda heartbroken that you didn’t include here comes honey boo boo💔
Omg I really hate that show. And now with Mama June' show I just remember how annoying Alana was
it might be hard to find legally now bc tlc is pretending it never happened (for context if anyone doesnt know, mama june was marrying a sexual predator who raped her daughter, and june KNEW)
@@iwakeupandboomimarat 😶
TLC is basically “Everything bad about TH-cam: The Channel”, but came way earlier than TH-cam. Change my mind.
i remember an episode of 4 weddings where the 3 brides hated food so they just ordered pizza for themselves
The candy wedding? 😂
I remember that! The bride had a really childish food palate and was super picky and had like no food at her wedding. the other girls were so hungry they went outside and ordered + ate a pizza in the parking lot LOL
"I can't call them a bootleg property brothers because they're dating" I'M DYING
the TLC shows i used to watch religiously:
-jon and kate plus 8
-toddlers and tiaras
-what not to wear
-90 day fiancé
-my strange addiction
-say yes to the dress (i would always fall asleep watching TLC and when i woke up this would be on lol)
-four weddings
-cake boss (but i’m NOT a fan; ace of cakes is the superior cake man show!)
-hoarders
I feel like every show on TLC is just the definition of "reality tv show" but on crack
TLC legit has some of the best and worst content I've ever seen
Did anyone else see that The Duggars named their daughter “Jinger”?
I wish I didn't just rewind to see if you were joking
jinger sounds like a slur for seven different races, genders, and sexualities at the same time
Unfortunately it's also pronounced Ginger - she's also like only their fifth kid there were so many other J names to choose from at that point!
That sounds like a slur for red heads.
Imagine, world is full of beautiful J-starting names and she gets Jinger like they ran out.
I LOVE Four Weddings!!! The pettiness killed me, they’d be like “My water only had 3 ice cubes, I prefer 4 cubes. 1 Star.”
I remember avoiding 19 Kids and Counting like the plague because to me, something did not sit right in my spirit about that family. Like I knew in due time something evil was brewing and it was going to explode in their faces. Long behold I was right. I can't even describe in words what the eldest brother did to his sisters. It's beyond disgusting.
You're lucky you had that gut feeling. I used to watch that show for many many years and when I found the ...things... Josh did and just how horrible of people they are really made me have a moment. I wish I wasn't so oblivious to what was going on
"only 7 of us" YOU HAVE SIX SIBLINGS???
maybe there was a divorce and remarrying, causing her to have extra siblings
Ikr i have one sibling and 3 cousins lmao
I think it also includes cousins
She's mentioned before that "there's 5 of us" so I'm assuming there's 5 siblings and 2 parents hence 7 people
from what i remember "say yes to the dress" was such a wholesome show
Some of the time it has nice moments, but some of the party members could be so horrible and nasty. I’d always feel bad for the bride. There’s a really low budget Canadian version and everyone is so stereotypically Canadian and pleasant
Well it depends some people its awful I feel bad for them due to how bad their family/fiancé is
I actually participated in filming an episode with my sister (it never aired, we were way too normal lol) but it was actually super fun! The store staff and stylists and the TLC crew were all super sweet and it ended up being a really nice memory of my sisters wedding.
Btw the barnyard batman episode title is "And Some Sweating for the Wedding" which is season 10 episode 10
Ty!!!
Do you have an encyclopedic knowledge about tlc?
@@madhatt3r93 nah I had to Google it lol
THANK YOU! I couldn’t find it!
Duggars: All the J names and none of them are Jamie. So weird.
Or Jessica
@@jessyjulie5506 There's a Jessa, though. 🙃
It took 7 girls and 19 years for them to use Jennifer in 2007!
Is there a James?
Ooo don’t forget “Say Yes to the Dress: Bridesmaids”
i LOOOOVE how instead of pretending you came up with that '10 year old with no concept of the value of money" thing you looked it up and realized you were just vaguely remembering something someone else said. I know that happens to me sometimes; you're awesome for being so honest and explaining that in such a seamless way.
big ed’s picture in the thumbnail tho
I SAW THAT
Kinda why I am watching the video
Thats probably the best ss anyone could get of him on the show tbh
JIM BOB SCARED THE SHIT OUT OF ME! EVERY ONE OF MY FRIENDS LOVED THAT SHOW BUT I DID NOT TRUST THAT FAMILY
I remember watching 19 kids and counting one time and one of the younger girls said she doesn't want to ever get married and the dad stared at the camera and said "she'll get over that..." and it terrifies me to this day.
The Duggar’s scared the hell out of me they’re obviously a cult And my dad was like their nice and I was like no! They’re not! And sister wives was scary too so ur right to be scared of them!
fun fact....actually really really sad fact i was crying when this was posted 👍🏻
this video made it better tho lol
awww, i hope you feel better buddy! sending positive vibes your way~~!
Feel better babes 💕 things will get better just one day at a time! Wish you the best
I feel you! I was having a really awful day too but this made me laugh. I hope you feel better soon.
I was going to joke that they should make "Dr. Pimple Popper: Before the pop" BUT THAT'S ALREADY AN ACTUAL TLC SHOW. 💀
I should work at TLC. Hire me TLC.
What-
How is it already a show💀💀💀
They should have never made it a show, it should have stayed online and free for the masses.
i SPIT MY WATER OUT when you said “hey Jiffy Lube”
as someone in an international marriage (4 years, STILL working on getting a visa - tho tbf, it was all set to go this year and miss rona put a swift pause on that), 90 day fiance just makes my blood boil.
Same. I’ve been trying to get my hubs a visa for 5 years. We’ve spent around 50 k paying for it so far and still nothing. Then you have shows like this were they get it right away or people like nick Jonas who got married a year ago and he gets a visa for his new wife
"Untold Stories of the ER" actually mildly traumatized me as a child being of how horrifying the situations the patients went through and the effects really drove home the terror.
when i was like 7 i saw a clip of one episode and on yt it was called “too much sausage or a heart attack?” and from them on i was terrified of sausage and i still don’t really eat it to this day 💀
"What not to wear" was my favorite show as a kid. Me, my mom, and my younger sister watched it a lot. I was probably in elementary school when I recall seeing it the most. Everybody on that show who did the makeovers seemed so cool and friendly to little kid me lol. My favorite was the guy hairdresser who had the salt and pepper hair.
Yes!! I love that show. The hair and makeup people were always so sweet and tried to fix things if the people were pushed too much outside if their comfort zone
Omg same... I loved that show
Honestly now I’m like I could nominated for it
honestly sometimes i think about how "what not to wear" is probably the reason i started being interested in fashion and eventually became a costume designer lol
ok but the duggers must have hit the end of the rope with the "J" names because who in their right mind names their child Jinger instead of Ginger?? like did they already use up Jinny or like Jinora or something
no!!! jinger was only #5, they had plenty of names!! (they also have a Jana, Johannah, and Joy-Anna but they don’t have a Julie, a Jenna, or a Jessica). I could name children better than the duggar parents, and I don’t even have any children
u mean Jinora, Avatar Aang's granddaughter??
Matleena Konttinen yeah lol it’s better than jinger
I actually know someone named Jinger 👀
a couple more classics: little people big world, toddlers and tiaras, here comes honey boo boo
Omg i somehow forgot all about honey boo boo lmao
And What Not to Wear and Trading Spaces. 😄
don't forget TLC is responsible for body horror shows such as "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant" and "Sex Sent Me To the ER." keep it classy, TLC, never change.
this video felt like a fever dream and u didn't even mention here comes honey boo boo, toddlers in tiaras, or that show about amish people joining the modern world (i forget what it was called, breaking amish? leaving amish?) 😳 🥵🥵 CHILE ANYWAYS
actually there IS a reason why the duggar family is that big; their independent baptist religious group is actually more of a cult, specifically based on having as many children as possible. (people who have left that same religious group have described it as a "breeding cult")
Ed looks like he's constantly on the verge of having a stroke
He probably is
"The theme song also... kind of scary. They just kept coming, one after another, again and again and it never ended." I guess they tried to to let the audience feel what the parents felt.
I saw Cake Boss live when I was a Child and cried when he touched my hand as he came down the aisle
Michelle Duggers thousand yard stare with the little smile, haunts me to this day 😂😅. Untold stories of the ER got me interested in medicine as a kid and I eventually got into healthcare. My mom hated it because she’s squeamish but I binged it anyway 😂
thats a really good title, like actually made me so interested
TLC is literally my life.Their shows have so much variety.I can go from 90 days to counting on
Four Weddings was one of the hallmarks of my childhood television experience and I wouldn’t trade it for a thing that show is hilarious
Me, a Christian, looking at 19 Kids and Counting and all the creepiness: 😰
why y’all gotta act like that, my dudes.
Honestly same as a Christian
Bro same some Christians legitimately scare me
My first intro to TLC was in a hotel room, watching like 20 episodes of My 600 lb Life in one sitting. It was... an experience
casey wearing the same sweater every video makes me wonder if she is a cartoon character that opens their closet, and has like 30 of the same outfit
Ah yes. TLC. The Learning Channel that makes me go:
"Oh, my life isn't as bad."
HONESTLY!! If you ever feel bad about your life just watch any show in TLC and you’ll feel better about yourself
TLC. The learning channel that teaches us NOT to live their lives
Outdaughtered and Cake Boss are the only shows that seem sane on TLC
The OG Say Yes to the Dress was relatively sane. The concept gets old after a while but fun either way. Actually, my friend's younger sister got to meet Randy Fenoli and try on dresses for Make A Wish and the whole family said he was so kind.
Demetria Torowus I agree with you however, there were too many spin-offs that could have been avoided. Also, that is so cool that she met Randy!
Cake Boss became so famous here in Brazil that he was a judge and host of a cooking program here
Oh cool (💜❤️💜❤️)
There are some american shows and movies that have a larger following in Brazil than in US
Like White Chicks is a Brazilian national treasure even though it's not from Brazil
As someone who lives about 15-20 minutes from the Duggars, imagine the fear of running into them at Walmart or a restaurant. Yes it has happened to me
Are we not gonna talk about how the 19k&c were like Amish and sheltered their kids so bad that when they got married, they didn’t know abt life outside
Edit: I meant Amish as in really cut off from society, not like the actual group of people:)
I dont think they were Amish were they? The Amish dont use electricity, I think they were just very religious
@@nastassjahall9358 yeah google says they're baptists
Not amish. I know they ARE quiverful, which is a cultish thing that focuses on having as many children as possible and extreme patriarchy. Maybe closer to Mormonism?
PigeonReads I made a ridiculously long comment about this earlier, but they are definitely Quiverful, and are part of a cult called IBLP. It's completely insane.
No ones gonna mention about Josh Duggar and what he did to the sisters?
I’ve never wanted an enemies to lovers story more, than with groups of the 4 weddings ladies....the tension...
They're still here, they just don't have a pimple!!
big fish theory 🖤
All I remember from Four Weddings is the one episode where a wedding has like, appetizers and cupcakes but no real entrees, so the other girls get hungry and go outside, 'secretly' order a pizza, and eat the pizza outside instead of continuing to judge the wedding
I wish you talked about Gypsy Sisters/Brides. That's my all time favorite chaotic TLC show lolol
i loved that show but let’s be real all of the channel was amazing to me
felt the need to comment cause i've been on youtube for like 15 years and this is the first time i've ever been on a video immediately after it was posted. a life goal has been achieved
I have vivid memories of myself watching 4 weddings for hours as a child
Same
i actually live right by a carlos’s bakery from cake boss and honestly the cakes taste like shit they’re dry as hell
YES!! Accurate!
The canolis were decent!
💀💀💀💀
WHAT?! SERIOUSLY???? NOOOO😭😭😭
Oh boy
I must’ve missed the “congrats for getting out of prison” episode of Cake Boss
its funny to remember that i too was into jon&kate plus 8 in middle school (?) and will always remember anxiously trying to fit in this special where they split up or something and you had to watch it live because it was 2008 and we couldn't record. its pretty crazy to think about how invested i was as a child in a very adult drama.
ah yes, the 9dfcu (90 day fiance cinematic universe)
I got stuck in an elevator with jim bob at a homeschooling convention as a kid. i do not trust that man either
"By kid twelve I'd be like 'hey Jiffy-Lube'" CASEY 😂😂😂
😳😳😳😳😳😂😂😂😂😂
‘TLC men that scare me’ list growing by the minute
I love four weddings for the pettiness as well. Imagine getting invited to three parties that you know had a lot of effort made to put together and acting like your Gordon Ramsey rating the free food
TLC really gives us the most obscure content and I’m honestly here for it
I got this notification and all I saw was "exploring the most chaotic channel on televisio...." and I was like "oop she's talking about TLC"
my party trick is that I can name all the Duggar children in order 💀
Wow, that's some pure talent right there
That's quite a flex tbh
Same! I memorized it when I was 7 and I haven't been able to forget it since.
My first thought was "Damn that's a feat." My second was "Why" followed by a very sincere "I'm so sorry"
my mom actually ended up blocking the tlc channel when i was a teenager. I vividly remember crying about it because I was so obsessed with my strange addiction
Plot twist: ended up on my strange addiction for being addicted to my strange addiction
fun fact the Duggars are a 'quiverful' family which means they quite literally ARE trying to build an army, one that votes with fundamental christian priorities (learned from a yt channel I highly recommend; Fundie Fridays)
