Additionally, a rep for General Mills informs the site that the company has removed the show from its advertising schedule.
TLC has yet to make a definitive long-term decision, but the move is an ominous sign and the Cancellation Reaper is sharpening his blade with anticipation.

Kim says

Lorene says
I have totally stopped watching anything on TLC because they pulled 19 kids and counting! They are so quick to pull the plug on a great show like this but keep shows on such as Sister Wives that are propagating illegal activities. I am done with TLC until this show is brought back on. I do not want to see “A Girls Show” I want to see the entire family. They are human like all of us and parents who want to protect their children. TLC should not have caved into the liberal anti-christian campaign being waged. It used to be a favorite of mine but no more. Totally disappointed. BTW it was a good decision to pull honey Stupid off the air. It should never have been on the air – total trash!!!! Then again – it seems that TLC supports trash and not family values lately.
