This is what I think too

 

[Four is Enough]

How old is Josie? Seven? Shouldn't Mac be doing the flower girl thing by now? Or is she older than Josie?

[Dutch_girl]

Mack is older than Josie (Mack October 8th, 2009, Josie December 10th, 2009)

Joe's wedding--in which he will opine that whatever the women folks decide for the wedding is fine by him. Then he'll rip open some Beef Jerky....

1. Cringe worthy sex talk with Jim-Bob might

2. A Duggar-ish Stag Party with the FDW (Josh's b-i-l) mud wrestling with Jonathon what's his name

3. John-David doing a stupid practical joke

4. Jackson saying how he'll a Daddy soon and no one understanding if it's Joe or himself he means because he'll still talk like a baby

5. Josiah wanting to mud wrestle, but instead saying who Neat it is that Joe and the Mrs can minister together

6. The guys will wear suspenders worn and bad photos with guys in wide stance and sunglasses.

7. The ring bearer will be a Ring Security Agent like no one ever thought of that before...

8.  They will have every Pinterest-y wedding photo including #6

9. John David will let them start driving away and then intercept and stop them in his police car

10. Michelle will say all about him and that he has those qualities because he's the third son. She will try not to look at the cue card for the number. She will say Kendra is sweet and precious and this new Sesason of Life is just precious.

11. Within an hour after they leave there will be sweet fellowship so there will be a baby for season 5

. The candidate must also chart her cycles on the Duggar family calendar during the courtship period to prove her intention of making babies.

 

And to pick an optimal time for conceiving a honeymoon baby!

Verrrrry curious to see how much TLC will spend on a Duggar son. 

But what if the bride's parents say "We won't pay if TLC is there?"  I doubt anyone marrying a Duggar would, but it does get more complicated if the bride's family is footing the bill or part of it.  There's another voice in there who may not think 1,000 people at a wedding is a dream come true.  This could be interesting.  If Kendra and her family only want 100 people, JB really can't override that.  They could strike a deal of pre- and post-wedding coverage or something.  Kendra will probably bend to whatever strong male voice makes a decision, but it might not be JB so we could be entering new territory here.

I really think that anyone who even thinks about getting involved with a Duggar realizes that the public eye is part of the package - that JB is the HEADSHIP of the clan  cult.   That includes being headship over the parents of their children's spouses.    

I can't see that Kendra will have much, if any, say.   

Keep in mind, JB is a used car salesman/politician at heart - and honed skills to fast talk so that he probably can bamboozle the other set of parents.  

I'm willing to bet that when Joshy told Anna's parents about his 'issues' that JB was right there doing the old hocus pocus this really is no big deal and hoodwinking her parents into to thinking it was nothing.   

He can point to all the leg humpers and show the parents of his kid's love interest just how holy and God lead they are as a family and therefore it is a God given BLESSING that their child was chosen to join this Godly family

On another note, I wonder if Jessa ever feels bad she's the only sister to not include Anna as a bridesmaid? I thought Jinger or Joy might not have her, but Jana definitely will so literally Jessa is the only one who left her out.

Eh. Anna lived in DC at the time so they weren't as close as they are now. I think it's understandable.

I don't think Kendra ' s dad has a problem with their family being televised. Wasn't the father featured on an episode of the show? I could swear someone indicated he was the guy showing some of the boys how to work on cars. I would love for a producer to ask more pointed questions. The questions are so boring and predictable.

Will we get an "all about Joe" episode? That would require a lot of filler, even by TLC standards.

Or it could require them to go through other way and actually film new material.

GASP. You mean actually do their job/spend effort/time/money? Never!

The biggest question is, will Josie have a super special crown again?  

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe she'll graduate to this one.

they can show the episode where he comes back from ALERT and Jinger cries like a tween at a Justin Bieber concert.

I just hope none of the Duggars will do what my grandma did. 
Got married at 17, at her older sister's wedding, because she had a boyfriend and there was already a wedding, so why not? It worked out for her, but she was neither fundie, nor submissive housewife. 

What about a double wedding!?!? Maybe for Jana & JD or Jed & Jer?? 

Two get hitched for the price of one! That's practically the same as buy used and save the difference...

[Bad Wolf]

@The limit does not existGood idea, but would they share bridesmaids, and which lucky couple would get Josie and the amazing light up headdress?

An aside about the one of the producers for 17 Kids and Counting, Mary Wilcher was on an episode of WellRed the podcast recently. Mary Wilcher is an out lesbian who is married and is raising 2 kids in South Carolina. They didn't discuss the show, but I had a chuckle thinking how would the Duggars respond to the daughter of the owner of the production company being an out lesbian. She probably flew under their radar if you will because she doesn't fit the stereotypical trope many fundies seem to have of lesbians. I know not related to the topic at hand and is a drift, but I found it interesting. I kind of wish I had a podcast called Follow Up questions so I could ask questions not addressed in interviews. Although I hate the sound of my own voice, am technology challenged half the time, and from what I understand equipment is expensive. However, if you are a Portland Oregon resident of close surrounding are the local PBS affiliate has a podcast studio for public use.

My argument might not hold now that we know Sierra was a bridesmaid for Joy, but yeah, I think that the Duggars/Counting On tend to portray people as BFFs if they spend some time together and don't rip each other's throats out.

Let's spice it up. 
All legal aged Duggar boys married at the same time, because they're boring and nobody cares. A huge, huge, cringy fundie wedding, where Michelle wears an ugly dress and JB cries, because so many new couples to support. 
Followed by mass pregnancy announcement.

New show: The Fundie Bachelor(s)

pretty much the same as the bachelor but without the hot tubs and bikinis, halfway through one candidate will be ostracised after being caught holding hands with the bachelor and accidentally giving away pieces of her heart. Paul Burrell will make a guest appearance to tell them how to make tator tot casserole just as Princess Di liked it.

Will Boob support his sons like he does his daughters though? Or does he expect them to go off and get different jobs like Joshley did with his hate group?

Given that Josh and his quiver are still being supported by JB, I think that all subsequent male Duggars and their families will also be on the communal teat. My guess is that Josh's move to DC was interpreted as a dangerous example of what happens when you leave your parents' umbrella (never mind that he also had an AM account in Arkansas), so I think the goal is to keep all the sons dependent on JB.

Why stop there?

- Boob can wear the ugly dress and Michelle can wear a nice pantsuit. 

- The Four abuse victims can start a new tradition of getting white girl wasted on root beer and then beating Josh's sorry ass at the reception. Jana can join in when they start beating their parents too.

- JD will start a tradition of setting elaborate traps to catch Josh and their parents. For bait he uses hairspray and KJV Bibles (for his parents) and Kohls catalogs with just pictures of women wearing fitted shirts and pants (for Josh... because Fundie porn?) 

- Josie will wear her magical crown. She will walk the aisle five times at each wedding - once for herself and once in place of Hannie, Jennie, Jordyn, and Mack. This will continue until the day she dies the the ripe old age of 105. Because Josie is obviously the real star of the show.

- Derick will not simply dip Jill for a kiss during the recessional. He will swing down from the rafters, scoop her up, and land on a balcony. He'll then dip her and kiss her, before loudly proclaiming Jill is pregnant. Jill will look equal parts embarrassed and shocked, before slapping a smile on her face. This will happen at every single wedding from now on. Only the announcement will be about triplets when Jana finally marries.

- JinJer will regress to "Baaaaaaaaaaaaabe!" and hand sex as they remember their own journey to marriage. There will be collective second hand embarrassment by every FJ poster and lurker.

- JoStin will train their blessings (all 20 of them eventually) to lasso while on horseback. So when Uncle JD's traps eventually stop working, the Forsyths can wrangle up a Smuggar and the Boobs for the traditional wedding beating.

- Josiah will desperately attempt to get attention. These attempts will increase in intensity until he finally snaps and interrupts one ceremony by breaking out in song and dance. Cousin Amy will join in. It'll end with King Dill driving his truck onto the stage, the two jumping in, and all three booking it to Vegas for a few nights of ebil gambling and sinful booze. Josiah will even hold hands with a nice girl he meets at a Sonic on the way. It will be a much discussed scandal amongst the Fundies. Half of FJ will focus on criticizing the performance, while the other half will be busy compiling a list of songs they could spontaneously perform for the next wedding. 

- Ben will attempt to say something insightful and wise. It'll come out garbled because public speaking is tough. Jessa will try to boss everyone around, but her eleventy kids (who have all decided to become little hellians) will distract her too much to really enforce her demands. So everyone will ignore her. The camera will eventually find her crying in a corner because her reign of terror is over.

Or they could use the unused footage of when he went to college, that we never got to see due to Joshgate #1. I would actually find that really interesting.

Unless they can't air it for contractual reasons.
