Is anyone else sick of hearing about these idiots? I get why they started the show, to help make money and provide for their ridiculous amount of kids. They racked in the money and then watched as their marriage collapsed on national television. Now Jon has emptied the bank account and left Kate with a thousand bucks to live off of. Now she’s on the Today show with her sob story about not knowing what she’s going to do, and how she can’t pay her bills, and she’s probably already looking for dental care discounts and other hand outs for the kids. I agree that Jon has been a real sleazebag lately, but isn’t there money set aside for the kids since THEY are the ones who earned it? I’m sure there is legal action she can take. Plus when they were going through this divorce stuff, didn’t she set some money aside?
It just bugs me that they’ve gotten so out of hand with their spending, that she doesn’t know if she can pay her bills? Come on, you make MILLIONS. I don’t feel sorry for this woman, who is too busy going on every talk show on the planet, exploiting her kids on tv, and not willing to let go of the golden paycheck when enough already. The kids need the cameras out of their face. I don’t care if Kate decides to have her own talk show (which will eventually bomb after the hype fades out), but take those poor kids off the air. I’m glad the show is temporarily on hold, let’s hope it’s permanent.

I love how now Kate is all high fashion, and blackberry weilding. The money was for the kids, right?

And this guy. How he got so many nannies, 20 somethings to sleep with him I’ll never know!

I don’t normally watch this show, but with all the fuss and gossip surrounding this couple, it was a train wreck I just had to tune into. I watched the episode that is sure to be the demise of the series. Jon and Kate announce that they are no longer Jon and Kate plus 8, but instead Jon minus Kate, or rather, according to tabloids, Kate minus Jon, as she was the one to file for a separation.

It was sad to watch, because while I couldn’t care less what happens to these people, I feel so sorry for their kids. Reality shows are ridiculous as a whole, when you’re not involving children who get no say in the matter. As a child of divorce, my heart breaks for these kids, who will literally be able to WATCH their parents marriage fall apart. They are young enough to hopefully forget some of the moments where Kate immasculated Jon in front of them, over and over again. Or when Jon would fire back with his little snippy remarks to her. Anyone who watched this show in the last few seasons could see that the only love these two had was for their kids, not each other. Still, knowing these kids will have complete video footage so that they will never forget the sadness that fame and fortune brought them is just awful.

Of course, for all we know the kids will grow up to write a book, or have their own ridiculous reality show,  Jon and Kate’s 8, The Therapy Years. Hopefully others who strive to become famous for having too many offspring in this already overpopulated world will learn from J & K’s attrocious example. We can only hope.
