Kate Gosselin: Full of Crap, Lamenting End of Show
Kate Gosselin is somehow among Barbara Walters' 10 Most Fascinating People of 2009. The only fascinating things to us are that someone stayed married to her for 10 years, and that her dead opossum hairstyle stays up. But so be it.
Before she and Jon Gosselin became embroiled in some of the year's best tabloid fodder, Kate was known simply as a reality TV mother of eight.
Eight kids she claims are devastated and crying themselves to sleep now that they're no longer in front of the cameras. No, Kate, that's just you.
"They cried in the van on the way home from school the other day. They kept asking, 'Where's the crew? Where's the camera crew? We miss them.' And I said, 'Our show is over.' ... Eight sobbing kids driving home from school," she said.
Defending herself from criticism that she exploits her kids, she adds:
"Unless you live in my house and, and see how everything that we have done with the show has been such a great experience, you can't speak."
Oh, how very wrong she is about that!

The show, Jon & Kate Plus 8, recently ended its two-year run following a string of developments set in motion around the middle of the year.
In September, TLC made the announcement that Jon Gosselin would no longer appear on the series and that it would be re-titled Kate Plus 8.
Tht plan got axed after Jon objected to his kids appearing on TV, claiming that he "had an epiphany" that the show was exploiting the brood.
Kate disagrees, telling Walters Jon pulled the plug on the popular show "simply because he could." We'd have to say she's 100 percent right.
Still, she continues to whine about her kids "great experience," i.e. her paycheck, being snapped up, claiming that Mady, Cara, Hannah, Leah, Alexis, Joel, Aaden and Collin "watch DVDs of our show and it's family memories to them." Blech.
Unfortunately, Kate Gosselin says her days in front of the camera are far from over, as she is slated to do a new talk show next spring.

Kate apparently felt the show would go on and on and on and on...
Well, the kids were no longer 'cutesy toddlers', they had become 5 yr old bratty copy cats and, like her, could not think on their own, make a comment or ask them a question and they just repeated what the first kid said or did. The annoying trips to visit the dentist/doctor/barber were no longer cute or interesting and had been done already, as well as the trips to farms, amusement parks, etc. The show had OUTLIVED ITSELF. LET 'ER GO!!!!!!!!!!

What are all you people who are so full of hate going to do when you don't have Kate to talk about??

I am glad that Kate can't use her kids to make money right now, although Jon may cave and let them be filmed again if he's offered enough $$. Why can't these loser parents get real jobs instead of making the kids work? The kids are a little too old to be "cute" enough to carry a tv show. Jon, grow up and get a real job. Kate, grow up and get a real job.

Seriously people... GROW UP. You don't really know Kate. Your not her BFF. She is getting knocked down for doing whatever it takes to take care of her family. Maybe it would be better if she just let US take care of her and the kids. Sell the house, don't work and go on assistance. I don't know if you are jealous or what but damn... she is doing what every other parent out there should be doing... taking care of her family. You may not like how she is doing it and you can pick apart every detail of her life but guess what... you don't have to pay her bills at the end of the day. Like I said before... GROW UP!

I feel that we all should sue TLC for airing this reality show that was anything but, everything scripted, lots of freebies,not to mention the fake wedding,and the bodyguard whats with that, I don,t know any normal family that has a bodyguard at their deposal Shame on you TLC for deceiving your viewers,

I was wondering what TLC are thinking by giving this stupid woman a show of her own,after all they are suing her soon to be ex, what sort of learning channel sues one of their so called reality stars , when they knew there were problems in that family, TLC created these two trainwrecks, exposed the kids for their own gain,I surpose it doesnt matter to them that there has been so much negitive respons to these people, allabout the $$$$$$$$ oh by the way Kate you had better watch out you could be the next gosselin to be sued by TLC AHH what the hec while they are at it TlC may as well sue the kids for not wanting to do the show

Once again, I said it about the family show and I will say it about any show Kate Gosseling is on. Air it..I ban the station...Kate to me is a manipulative liar, claiming her children miss the crew, the children watch the old episodes...fact remains she misses the money that provided her with a lifestyle a Nurse could never have on her own. I watch her and she lies lies and lies...I don't think those kids should grow up around cameras...I think Kate is using them for personal gain...the whole thing is discusting...and nothing I will ever be a part of...Kate is a fake, a phony and greedy as hell....YUCK!

It's so sad to see these "Kate haters" have nothing better to do then pick everything she says and does apart. Get a life people!

Who cares about Kate! I don't get a real job and quit crying like a baby. It's so many women out there raising kids nothing close to what kate was getting! So Bitch please shut up! those kids will get over it! It's her ASS that's sad cause the gravy train has stopped. The BITCH has gone hollywood both her and John. Oh well they'll get back to reality ine day.
