Jon and Kate plus 8

[Rociel]

I watch this show every monday. Is there anyone else you just cant resist the Gosslin family?

[Tressa]

I watched it when it first came on, but haven't kept up with it the past few years. How long has it even been on?

I heard a rumor that they might be splitting up. I'm going to be honest, Kate seems like a witch most times when she and her husband are sitting on the couch during the confessionals. All she seems to do is make sarcastic, insulting comments at her husband. It's one thing to goof around, but it seems to be what she's best at. I can imagine she's hard to live with and it seems like he's past getting tired of her shenanigans.

[Cyndi]

Tressa, I agree! She does seem like a tough one!!

[Kourtney]

Did anyone see the finale? It made me laugh when TLC was using the rumors of Jon cheating on Kate and moving out of the house to tease you into thinking that they would discuss those in the last episode. And they were saying they had to decide if they would do a season 5 because Jon didn't want to - too bad Oprah announced that season 5 is starting (I think in May) and Emril (that chef that always says BAM) twittered that he just filmed their 100th episode with them (no I don't follow his twittering or whatever it's called - I read an article about it!)

im so sad i completely missed it
and i dont know when the reruns come on

[Kourtney]

Hmmm maybe check TLC's website - they may play them online

thanx Kourtney, I finally watched the finale last night I was thinking about how they have been there for four seasons and how it all came about because of one documentary. this show is so awesome. but i see how jon is like wanting to pull away from the fame, even though it is a big part of the childrens lives now. Although kate wants to do another season jon does not becuase he does not want to be known as JON AND KATE PLUSE 8 but if this was their finale season, i would just like to say that it would be for the best interest of teh children and the family as a whole. And as jon and kate would say "you get what you get and you don't get upset"

I've watched it off and on through the years mainly because I am friends with someone who knows them and I usually know some of what is coming up on the show beforehand. They are currently filming so no worries that it has been canceled.

On a side note, Kate drives me insane most of the time. Her OCD prevents her from seeing that she has an incredible husband that treats her with respect and honesty. He also displays completely love towards their children and always takes time to make sure they know they are his first priority. I have mucho respect for someone like that.

That new show Table for 12 seems like a more realistic version of a family with multiples. They eat Pizza Rolls for crying out loud! ;) I've only seen 2 episodes but they don't seem to be putting on any false pretenses. I suppose if they made over a million dollars in a couple of years they might change though.

i really have tried to watch that knew show Table 12 but i dont think i got that same connection. Somthing about the gosslins , especially kate attracts me to that show. And you are soooooo right. Jon is an awesome man but kate is so powerful which makes her my fav... as is her daughter mady

[Jenn]

If my daughter acted like Mady she would be in time out until the whining stopped. Seriously, we don't spank our kids but I would have to reconsider with that child. I don't see Kate as powerful, I see her as a control freak. She has gotten a bit better about some of the things over the years they've been on tv (meaning I don't know if it's just for the show or in her life too), but I wanted to send Jon a one way ticket to wherever he wanted after seeing the show where he had to help with the packing for the move.

[Rociel]

omg yes and i agrre on the fact that mady cant behave. Also i feel that jon misses out (the poor guy) he is always off and does none of the fun stuff witht eh kids. Like the time at the penguin thing. He had to stay out because he was busy with one of the kids. I feel so bad also because it seems that a lot of the time he will be off and thats when they go to like the great museums and such. THIS GUY NEED HELP!
