I was a steady viewer,but I refuse to watch
-
TLC will lose me completly as a loyal viewer should they continue with this show.They have to many other shows that make you feel good after watchng not feeling worse.
-
Kate says she's not to blame, she said Jon made his choice...well it was her choice to push him out the door...she is a cronic nagger and thats her choice...duh Kate!
-
It's so sad. We hope they work it out. Jon needs to get his crap together & lose dirty college girl "Deanna". Lets face it - as long as you have women spreading their legs for "Married Men" - there will always be dirty affairs!!!
-
this show really sucks i feel so sorry for the kids this show needs to be taken off the air.i don't watch it after one show did it for me. they are only in it for the money.kate is a real nagger poor jon

HI PEEPS
-
With all the makeover Kate looks HOT, and I believe she's found that out and is acting on it! No one can see her surgical scars, but the rest of the package looks tempting. Ratings issues aside, they're headed for the Big "D" (and that don't mean Dallas).
-
I love this show and have watched from the first season - but it is time to end it. The problems Jon and Kate are experiencing should not be played out on national tv. THAT is what is best for those children. They are old enough understand and this is a PRIVATE MATTER.
-
Forget the show. I'm concerned about them and their family. "What God has joined together, let not man put asunder". The marriage institution is authorized by God Himself! The papporazzi has a lot to account for on Judgment Day. Noone has the right to follow a married couple around, especially in stores. As for Jon and Kate, they need to give Jesus a chance in their lives.
-
If this show goes, so should the Duggars, also Tori.
-
LEAVE TORI AND THE DUGGARS OUT OF THIS... THEY HAVE THEIR STUFF TOGETHER... MAYBE WHEN JON AND KATE CAN SAY THE SAME THEY CAN START OVER AGAIN!!! THESE TWO PEOPLE SHOULD NOT IN ANYWAY BE ALLOWED TO STAY ON TLC!!! WHY PAY THEM AND GIVE THEM PUBLICITY FOR ACTING STUPID, MAKING PISS POUR CHOICES AND DRAGGING THEIR CHILDREN THROUGH THIS POOR EXCUSE THAT THEY CALL FAMILY!!!

TLC will continue the show as long as people are interested in watching and (Jon and) Kate will continue to exploit those children as long as there's money to be gained from it. I stopped watching the show a while ago when it became apparent that Kate was more interested in fame and fortune than the well-being of her children.
-
I used to watdch this show but to see this couple fight and now head for divorce I do not feel it is a wholesome show to watch. Stop feeding her ego.
-
SOOOOOOOOO SAD!!!
Used to love the show but no more. TLC should pull the plug.
No viewers!
No show!
No books! -
What it looks to be is what was good for the Goose for some time frame of Kate with bodyguard now also good for the Gander .The body guard and the Hummel teacher are both homebreakers........................
......Who would respect this type teacher ? -
I think if Kate didn't nag Jon he'd still be just standing there playing dumb.
-
What happened to the mom and dad with eight kids we used to watch around the house and everyday tasks? This couple are NOT celebrities! They are not actors, singers, dancers etc. They were put on television as a mother and father trying to raise eight kids.
Over the past five years and Kate's verbal abuse towards Jon, I am sure his self esteem has been severally damaged. Perhaps if we saw more of her apologizing for her actions instead of him looking like a puppy dog with his tail between his legs, things may be different.
They have been through a lot lately with moving and doing it themselves with eight kids is stressful. It appears they have lost touch with their good friends and family that always supported them before.
Maybe we need to stop watching and let them get a grip on their lives. In the long run the kids will be the ones hurt and embarrassed by their parents actions. -
i use to love watching this show because the kids were so cute, but now its revolving around the adults, and they are not that interesing!!!! just your typical selfish, self centered parents its all about the money now . so sad i wonder was it qworth it?????
-
This show has done a complete turn around..What started out as a family show has turned into a circus..Love the kids and Jon but, can't say the same for Kate..She has changed and that is the problem.Liked her a lot in the first few series but, not any more..
-
I WILL NEVER WATCH THIS CRAZY B I T@@ EVER AGAIN. She pimped out her kids so that she wouldnt have to go back to where she came from. THE TRAILER PARK. She's a money grubbing low life. NO changing this dumb bi@@@. RUN JON RUN!
!! -
i am a huge fan of the show but i feel that it did affect the way that i see the show now
-
Still love the show. Will continue to watch and hope it goes on forever. It's obvious Jon and Kate love their children and kids don't seem to be in distress. They still seem happy and playful. They will survive even if parents divorce. Kate's a great mom and she has alot of responsibility. She's not doing anything any other person on earth would do in the same circumstances.
-
I think this will work out between them as long as Jon stops messing around. Maybe Kate needed this to realize how mean she is, but still Jon had no right to cheat. I wish them luck for ths sake of the kids
-
She's very pretty.
-
I think Jon needs to stop messing around and they need to work things off. Also everyone needs to leave them alone!!!!!
-
I used to love to watch, then started seeing how Kate was really treating Jon, now I just quit after seeing her order water and drink it in front of her thirsty daughter and not let her have any - for shame Kate!
-
Unfortunately, I really don't like watching anymore. They chose to make their lives an open book and now they are dealing with the consequences of their choices. They've sold out and chose to become celebrities and now they have to deal with the reprecussions. I just really feel for the kids who did not choose to live in a fishbowl. The parents may have gone into this with good intentions but greed took over and now their lives have changed forever. Its sad. But if you look at other realty shows where couples have had their lives filmed "Jessica and Nick" Carmen Electra and Dave it broke up their marriage.......
-
It is difficult to watch a barely five-year old be beaten by a violent woman for the sin of being a child and blowing a whistle. Does she ever take the cell phone out of her ear? Was she talking to her boyfriend/bodyguard at the time. She is evil and this show must be taken off the air. No more shows and no reruns.
-
Well I think the paparazzi should just lay off Jon and Kate so they can work on getting there marriage back together for the sake of their children..They have a great family from the beginning now all of sudden there caught up in the hollywood world...So come on Gosslin's get your life back for the sake of thekids they are too adorable for there parents to be like this!!! Ur the next Speidi lol
-
They are normal people just like us, they do make mistakes but over all I hope they stay together and last a lifetime!!! good luck
-
Okay, for starters, it is NEVER right to cheat when you are married. Not even if the other person nags alot. She has 8 kids, I believe anyone would get stressed with 8 kids. I get stressed with three, and I am lucky enough to not have the cameras to depict every breaking moment of mine.
-
I was a steady, however, I refuse to ever watch again. Tired of hearing about them breaking up. Why don't they see Dr. Phil, don't they think their marriage is worth it ?
-
She needs to stop writing books and care about her FAMILY.
Family = Jon included.
If that means to stop a show then that's what it takes.
I miss the old Gosselin family that used to be a part of my family. If the show ends, I will miss them but hope that their family can find peace in each other. -
The show should go. Enough T.V. they should pay more attention to what really is happening.They will try to continue for the money.
-
No, because Kate is very prof.essional and she control tjis problem
-
I don't think Jon is thinking about the kids, they should have gone to some heavy duty counceling to make it work. Jon has so much hate in him that he is starting to think with his dick not his head. Kate wasn't as controling when it started as the kids got older she got naggy. Counceling, Counceling, Counceling. To make it work.
-
I am done watching this pathetic couple who "renewed" their wedding vows, how many months ago??? They both make me sick. First it was just HER, pushy bossy self serving wench! Now it is him, partying as though he were a free man without those 8 innocent kids. Yep, wait til they watch the reruns when they grow up! I see therapy, oh wait take them to that pathetic DR PHIL, they have already been with crazy fat Ophra, who is so upset she is just discovring her THYROID has been the problem all alone, come on!!! I am not a celebrity and I have had my thyroid checked and I am not a big fat cow!! She had too many burgers, fries, and Isamaxx whoopie pies! Why do we lov reality shows, me included, I am going to give them up before I lost touch with the REAL reality of life!
-
i used to watch the show but i am disgusted with Kate
-
I used to watch the show faithfully even though it was kind of getting boring at times watching the kids have dress up night or having that stupid scavenger hunt around the house. Now it is like watching a show which would be close to finger nails going across a chalk board. Kate is in one place rolling her eyes and making comments about Jon and Jon is standing ninty miles away acting like he is the most miserable human being on the place of the universe and probaley thinking of that little child tramp he can't wait to be around to make a bigger fool of himself. It is such a hard show to watch anymore. I may watch the first episode if it comes back to see if anything is said and that is it. The show is a joke and a major lie now as we watch a busted up family tromp all over at appointed times to hear each Jon and Kate try and beat each other at making the public think which one is really more loving & there for their children the most.! Both of them screwed their family up no one is ever completely at fault but NOW each one is making fools of themselves and looking very, very bad all away around. I really pity those poor twins when they go back to school after the summer and what the other kids are going to say to them from all the magazine covers, news and will probaley even repeat whatever they heard their parents saying about jon and kate. The little ones have another year before I think kids will really bug them about anything, by then it should all be died down with the media but they will have to live the rest of their lifes messed up over this. Alot of kids go through divorce everyday but its not televised on the TV and every magazine, or rag cover there is. Oprah owns TLC you think she would have that show pulled.
-
Kate and Jon are two very selfish serving money hungry people, their children our the ones to suffer. They need to re-evaluate their lifes, put the children first, quit using them for money. I will not watch their series anymore. TLC has let this go too far, in the name of ratings, they have aided and abated this family's destruction.
-
I couldn't agree with you more... Jon and Kate both say that everything they do is for the children... I laugh at that!!!! Jon and Kate both have different agenda's but neither of them are putting their children first!! How they are getting away with doing this to their children is above me!! And why people are still watching is beyond me as well!!! As a society are we that hard up for entertainment that we must watch these children suffer for the actions or lack their of, of their parents?!!

TLC, be sensible and remove the show off the air!
-
Are you all kidding. It's like the daytime soaps. Keep watching and maybe she will hook up with the hunky body guard. I think the show could still be very interesting. 50% of Americans are divorced. Big Deal
-
I HAVE WATCHED THIS SHOW FROM THE BEGINNING, BUT NOW IT SADDENS ME. I CANNOT BELIEVE HOW JOHN IS ACTING- LIKE A HORNY TEENAGER! ITS HORRIBLE. I FEEL SO BAD FOR THE KIDS-I THINK THEY SHOULD CUT JOHN OUT OF THE SHOW COMPLETELY!
-
give them time ... we might be surprise.... we never know... i beleive in Kate... and she will raise above this. with her children.. and maybe John will grow up a little....
-
I think Jon needs to grow up and for the sake of those 8 children get counseling. Maybe Dr. Phil can talk some sense into this couple.
-
i think kate is a bitch and i don't blame jon for getting away from her,
-
I hate Jon and Kate. I do feel bad for the kids but these parents are exploiting their children and I really wish they would take each and every child to talk to a therapist to see if they truly want to be on the show. I bet that most of the kids will say NO they dont even though Jon and Kate both said they would stop filming if they are not in agreement that they will continue the show. As soon as Jon said he didnt want to then Kate says the show must go on and that they are moving in a different direction. Many times on the show you see the kids putting their hands up to shield from the camera. To me that shows they do not want the cameras. But, yet again the show goes on.. Someone needs to go in and have a voice for the kids. The only person( Aunt Jodi and Uncle Kevin) who actually stood up for the kids ended up getting axed because Kate accused her of being greeding and trying to exploit her kids for money. REALLY Kate. Isnt this the pot calling the kettle black here. Are you not using your children for financial gain. If it was not for the kids you would not have the show so YES you are exploiting your kids so you can live the Hollywood lifestyle you always dreamt of Expensive houses, expensive cars. How many are you up to now 5 or 6.. Why do you need a Land Rover or Jon why do you need a Nissan 300Z . or a mercedes for that matter. Are these practical transportation for 8 kids. Then Jon getting an apartment in NYC.. And Kate getting a condo in Maryland to be close to her LOVER ... The McMansion is not enough for you I guess. Oh and if you needed another house since you both dont get along why not one of you set up your old house it still hasnt sold. To me you are trying to burn through all the money so when the kids do get older they will get NOTHING. Oh yeah thats right your doing that for your kids as well...
-
I think that all the media covered is not good for the show, because this show supose to be about raising twins and sextuplets. But now it is only on what the parents are doing and what they fight about. The children is being forgotten about, and put right in the middle! The children must have been very upset when the police had to come to the house. They should use the same babysitter that she uses because the children is living with her. Why does everthing has to be a big shouting match between!!! They need some help now!!!!
-
I think jon, is trying to capture his single life that he miss out on. He needs some alone time to figure out what he want to do for the rest of his life, and not get into a relationship so soon after he just brokeup with his wife of 10 years! That is so common of most men, they just jump right into one bed into another one. He needs to stop and think about how the decisions he make how it is going to reflect on his children.
-
i think jon is so wrong for doing kate the way he is,already flanting his new girlfriend who has issues of her own, if he's going to date that his bussiness but i dont think the kids should be involved this early in the relationship it may not work out with them then what,is he going to let them meet every women he date?how immuture.and then this nanny he should have checked her background not her back side they should'nt be subject to that,kate has a right to approve who take care of her children
-
I feel sorry for the children... Jon and Kate both need a lot of psychological help... Kate needs to realize that she is not in control anymore and that maybe had she treated Jon like a husband,friend and equal partner she wouldn't be where she is now... Jon needs to realize that just because Kate was controlling is No right for him to have one affair after another and act like a 18 year old that just started college!! These kids need parents that are actually going to be parents!! Kate if you really love your kids put the cameras down and get a good therapist for your children!!! That would be being a mother!! Money is Not everything!!! I hope that for the sake of the kids enough people stop watching the show that TLC has no choice but to pull it!!!
-
I agree totally lame, and the author needs to study the use of the shift and shift lockk key!!
-
Not only is he stupid, but to have one kid riding the ATV without a helmet while another is running next to it is really dumb. Does he have a brain in the upper hemisphere of that fat ugly thing on his head?
-
Take this show off the air and get something else in its place. This time slot and cable network channel needs some refreshing.
-
No more of this family....too much media attention and TLC has orchestrated the episodes, thought at one time it was J and Ks ideas but little did we know all TLCs version of a family, trips to dentist, hershey park,madys day,caras day, bday parties,cooking classes,music lessons,ughhhhh the list goes on. Now that TLC is gone I wonder what she does now...hmmmm nail salon, tanning salon, fixing that hair,shopping,,,,
