Apparently, Jon didn't care for being essentially fired (though he's firmly denying that he was fired, but c'mon -- he was), so he filed papers to slow the divorce proceedings and reportedly claims he wants to save his marriage now that he has no steady paycheck without it. Which is scummy, but I can't say I don't see the logic working there.

Anyway, the question isn't whether or not the show should continue -- of course it shouldn't, but it's going to, at least in the short-term, and those kids are irreversibly ruined at this point anyway. And besides, Mady of Love is going to be a good show in ten years. We can't jeopardize that. Nor is the question whether or not Jon and Kate should reconcile for the sake of Jon's finances -- of course they shouldn't. The question is why are we still talking about these people? The show's ratings have tanked, and though their tabloid antics are continuous, they've outlived their scandalous novelty. The kids are still hilarious and adorable on the show, which I still watch, but outside of the broadcasts I'm done thinking about these idiots. For at least until the end of the week, by which time they'll probably be married again for the sake of publicity or something, and I'll get my rage and interest back. It's a vicious circle with these Gosselins, but I have to admit that they're good at what they do (being awful).
