As CheatSheet pointed out, the Duggar family hasn't announced a courtship in two years. That might not sound like a huge deal — until you think about the fact that almost every season of Counting On and 19 Kids and Counting has featured one, of course. If this were the year that Jana Duggar started seeing someone, it could potentially bring lapsed viewers back to the show.
Between Jill Duggar Dillard's recent "rebellion" — she now drinks alcohol and uses birth control, and her family is no longer on Counting On — and the scandal surrounding Josh Duggar, there are plenty of reasons fans might not tune into the show anymore. And, while the Duggars have become TLC mainstays, it's more than possible that Counting On could be canceled in the near future. But if Jana started dating someone, it might inspire fans to tune in once again.
As the oldest Duggar daughter, Jana has a lot of pressure weighing on her, whether she likes it or not. In fact, as speculation about Jana's single status reached new heights, the reality TV star was compelled to post an Instagram photo of herself with a "Please Form Single Line" sign in August 2020, emphasizing her relationship status. But such jokes haven't been able to curb fans' desire to know the truth behind Jana's personal life.
