Fans are wondering if TLC will ever face legal repercussions due to Shiny Happy People. Fans are not happy with the network featuring the Duggar family on the shows 19 Kids and Counting and Counting On. Keep reading to learn more.

Should TLC Face Legal Repercussions?

One fan wanted to know if TLC will ever face legal repercussions. They took to Reddit to share their thoughts on the matter. The thread is titled, “Where are the repercussions for TLC spreading lies and promoting abuse?” The user has never watched the TLC series, but they can’t believe that the network noticed “child abuse” and “child slavery” and did nothing about it.

The user blamed TLC for giving the “abusers a platform for their propaganda.“ They don’t understand how TLC would promote a cult-like family on its network. At the end of the day, all it comes down to is money. The user blamed the network for destroying families because they simply watched the show and were influenced by the religion.

Other fans took to the thread to share their thoughts. Most of them placed the blame on TLC for giving the Duggars a platform. One fan wrote, “TLC is very used to ignoring blatant abuse. Take a look at the last season of Unexpected. It was so heartbreaking to see a woman subjected to such abuse while giving labor.”

Others noted that abusive television shows are common on the network. Another fan wondered if there was “abuse going on among the 90 Day Fiance cast.” Some fans noticed that TLC allows it to happen on camera and they just continue rolling. They don’t care if the cast members end up in a dangerous situation.

TLC – Won’t Face Consequences?

However, some fans felt that TLC won’t face consequences for the docuseries. One user noted, “The suits at TLC have no conscience. They are only interested in the bottom line no matter how much they exploit people, especially people perceived ‘different.'”

Some fans have to wonder how many families were converted into IBLP after watching the Duggars. It’s likely that the show influenced millions more people. There could be more victims and survivors that the docuseries could cover. Fans don’t see anything coming out of this.

TLC will continue to do what it does best. They will continue to show abuse on its other reality shows. Instead, fans think there should be legal protections for child actors and underaged content creators such as the Duggars. Do you think TLC will face repercussions?
