I used to agree with the decision to close the Jon and Kate + 8 board. But that was before TWoP decided to do constant reviews, stories, and updates on the Gosselins. All or nothing TWop, that's all I'm saying.

Wow, what a terrible review. All random personal reactions, minimal actual recap, and no snark. Glad Jacob's "style" has taken over the rest of the site

What a relief! I thought I was the only one who hated Jacob's reviews. What a shame he recaps 2 of my favorite shows (True Blood & Dr Who). These days I skip the recaps and the blog posts and head straight to the forums.

I cannot believe they put this train wreck of a show back on tv. I think it would be better if they left out Jon & Kate and just called it 8.

WORD. Just not a style I like, sadly.

First of all, I love Jacob's reviews, I read his stuff avidly even before I watch a show. I don't see how this review sounded like him at all. Maybe he expects viewers to be intelligent, and that is the objection to his recaps? Secondly, I don't think TWOP are recapping this horrible "show", this was just a one-time thing, perhaps? Third, there is a difference between having a forum filled with often TOS breaking posts and a summary written by a reviewer - the site doesn't have offer both forums and reviews on any show.

It's a shame that the viewing public, and more so TLC, cant see the train wreck count down not for Jon, not Kate, (i personally believe they have already arrived at rock bottom due to their hunger for fame) but for those 8 children that they'll cause by allowing this sad situation revealed to millions. Kate may "claim" that she travels non stop conducting interviews, photo shoots, and the oh so tedious work of learning to dance for only 500,000, (how can all those other middle class families with 8 kids possibly survive only making an average of 100,000 a year?) with the sole purpose of "providing for her family." but what happened to the projected 2.9 MILLION dollars the family made in two years of Jon & Kate plus 8? (CNN reported the family made 50-75k for each episode...i calculated for the very least they would have made per episode, 25k) That's not even including the various interviews and photo shoots they did on the side.

But more importantly, why is it so taboo to say they are BOTH terrible parents and role models? This shows appeal was in the fact that these were two very real people, in a not so normal situation having 8 children, and getting a glimpse into their lives. But what its turned into is a documentary of what happens when instead of having camera men as your guests, you turn them into a necessity to your family.

Again you ask, why should we blame Kate for living the American dream and trying to provide the best the world has to offer for her kids? Because what those kids need most right now, during a difficult time trying to figure out why their dad doesnt live at home anymore, or why there are so many people with cameras taking pictures of them playing in the front yard... is their mom. Stop the cameras, take at the very least, 3 years to fix your family privately. When the public stops hearing your tear jerking interviews with People magazine every other week, they will lose interest, aka: no more paparrazi stalking your family day in and day out (this is what you "claimed" you wanted). Cause even if convincing yourself that the public will never lose interest in your oh so thought provoking life (insert links to Omarosa's and "I Love New Yorks" myspace pages here), we will. Maybe not next year, or even the next six years, but we will. Which will make the real losers in this train wreck.... about 10 years old. Shame.

I should seriously win a Pulitzer for this one.

Kate is the most self-centered piece of c@#p ever. Watched one show and all she did was complain about how much she has to do, while losing her patience with her kids. Who told you to have 8 kids Kate??? You act like a martyr, but you are just a mean witch. Watch the re-runs and look of distain on your kids face, you narcisist! TLC should cancel this show for the sake of her kids - they need to be removed from both crazy parents!!!

As a retired educator my concern for these children long range is huge. I totally "get it" that Kate is stock piling money to put all these children through college and provide for their needs now, but I have viewed way too much negative attitudes in these children in their behavior right now. I see the need for therapy down the road. The twins, Mady & Cara, are already displaying Kate type of attitudes, behaviors, comments, and body language. Very scary! They are mirror images of her already. So sad to watch them act out in an attempt to manipulate their mom for attention. Very unattractive to say the least, but down the road this will only get worse. Now the little ones are modeling after the twins!! Kate is in for big problems later with all of these children. The twins are a mess right now and so not acting like normal 9 year olds. The temper tantrums & body language are not typical of emotionally healty 9 year olds. Look out when they are teens!

These children are all displaying serious manipulation techniques on their mother and succeeding thereby escalating future problems as they get older. I'm surprised she doesn't see this. Pehaps she should watch The Duggers to see how well behaved children act. Her kids should watch that show, too. That would be an eye opener for them and perhaps model after them instead of their mother.

Pairing up with wacho Sara Palin wasn't a smart move. You'll lose a lot of viewers over that pairing for sure!!!

what is wrong with this crazy lady-she complains about the papprazzi, yet she is the one who put her family in the public eye so she could make money and get free trips-maybe child services hsould check out this child abuse
