After the Duggar family show "19 Kids and Counting" was cancelled by TLC network because of Josh Duggar's scandals, the Christian family recovered from the setback with another show called "Counting On," this time focusing on the Duggar kids sans Josh and their parents Jim Bob and Michelle.

So when Jim Bob and Michelle made a cameo appearance in the show's second season episode 2 last week, some fans got really upset, according to the International Business Times.

"Keep the parents off the show! They are the reason that Josh is in the shape that he is now. It was told that if the show came back on, the parents would not be on there," one fan wrote on the show's Facebook page. Another fan added: "Get those disgusting parents off the show! At least Josh is no longer on the show. [TLC] should be ashamed of itself. I will no longer watch this show."

Some fans even accused the couple of "wiggling their [way] back" into the limelight and "making a dime" out of their kids. "I thought 'Counting On' [was] about the girls and their lives and the parents weren't allowed to be on the show. I have no desire to see Jim Bob and the wife!" an angry fan commented.

Another viewer said,"I have lost all respect for the parents after finding out they knew the whole time Josh molested his sisters."

However, not all comments were mean towards Jim Bob and Michelle. Loyal "19 Kids and Counting" fans were extremely thrilled to see the patriarch and matriarch find their way back to the show.

"Loved this week's episode! So happy for Jinger! And I loved seeing Michelle & Jim Bob again! I hope to see more of the entire family together again!" an enthusiastic fan wrote.

Another fan added: "Thank you so much for showing the whole family on tonight's episode. My heart was filled with joy to see them all!"
