Yes and she might turn out to be a much less abrasive personality if she doesn’t have to keep Jon on track, too.</p>
<p>i agree zoosermom…she could have been under tremendous stress…living with him.</p>
<p>If TLC and the shows producers are wise, they will cancel the current contract, scrub the unaired shows and start a new show with just Kate plus the 8.</p>
<p>TuTuTaxi…that’s a good suggestion.</p>
<p>I think Kate has too high of a negative rating, and Jon’s is creeping up too, so people will turn off the tv before they support her.</p>
<p>
NO! They won’t start any new show!<br>
Fortunately - the novelty has worn off at home, although I am informed everytime my kids spot one of them.<br>
The new favorite show is Rev Run. Thank goodness!!</p>
<p>I think the show WILL go on. There is no way that TLC is going to turn its back on a show that can draw 10 million viewers. And you can’t just cancel a contract. If Jon and Kate are willing to show up for work, then there will either be more episodes as contractually obligated, or TLC would have to pay them off. That show is their job and they like the lifestyle it brings. I don’t think any of them (TLC, Jon, or Kate) will quit as long as enough people will watch.</p>
<p>i’d like to see kate and the kids move to the food network…and paula deen can hang out with them. i love paula deen !</p>
<p>bookiemom, I would be surprised if somewhere in the fine print isn’t a reason which allows TLC to cancel the current contract. Sure, they may have to give J&K some financial settlement …………but that versus the lost of viewer who are unable or unwilling to watch Jon at 7pm on TLC pretending to be a caring dad while CNN has footage at 10pm of him running around NYC smoking and hanging out with young chicks in bars.</p>
<p>A show with just Kate and the kids is much more viable.</p>
<p>I don’t think the fans would be too keen on seeing the 8 in the company of Jon and his druggie girlfriend. I wouldn’t.</p>
<p>Kate and the kids?? OOOHHHH don’t touch me with those grubby little hands. You want water–I got your water right here!! Time to play–Nannie will you take over–I have a spa appointment. See yah. Don’t let them get dirty or Mommie will be very very angry and fire your butt.</p>
<p>You want reality, right??</p>
<p>I keep having this thought - what happened to the two people who appeared at churches telling their story of faith in this journey with multiples? I have been repressing the urge to post this question because I am hesitant to judge something so personal from afar, but, since actions speak so loudly, finally gave in to the urge to ask this in this forum!</p>
<p>Did anyone see the clip on TMZ where someone asked Jon at the airport if he was so concerned with what his kids would eventually see on the internet, why would he been seen in public with his new gf? He really did not answer that one.</p>
<p>why would anyone want him?</p>
<p>The show will go on. For all the “old” viewers they lose, there will be 20 new ones who can’t wait to see what happens next. The publicity is keeping them there, for good or bad…</p>
<p>what happened to the faith based couple? FAME + MONEY. It’s a drug, it hooks you.</p>

<p>I do know one person in my life who was rich enough to live in a giant home and was in charge of an extensive household staff and who arranged for all of the workmen who came in and do things on a regular basis and those who came in on an as needed basis.</p>
<p>THAT lady really worked! It was running your own little company. I’d give credit to those SAH parents who have household/kid help.</p>
<p>I only liked this show and enjoyed watching them when they were a family like mine: able to take maybe 1 vacation a year to somewhere close by, camping in the backyard, organizing all the junk families accumulate in a garage, switching bedrooms, etc. When it became more about all the adventures they experienced that most normal families will never experience, I totally lost interest. I was supposed to be watching a family like mine, only much bigger! Watching the same problems, fun, etc. that I was experiencing, but on a larger scale. I’ve been done for some time now. I’ll never go back. But then, I’m not into extreme reality shows anyway.</p>
