Re: Jon and Kate plus 8
When you are in the spotlight as much as they are, all your dirty laundry is there for everyone to see. They courted all this publicity and exposure which after all brought them fame and money but obviously there is always going to be a down side and this is it. If they do end up airing every little bit of grievance that they have with each other on tv, (which I can see Kate doing), the kids are going to witness it all and they will be the ones who ultimately suffer.

I have to say if they put my OH and me on tv people would think we were awful! People who are around us get the big picture. So in that respect they are showing things in a more raw sense but we don't get to see anything that might happen between the two of them when they are alone..........because that's not what the show is about.

Re: Jon and Kate plus 8
i actually work with a family member of these two. Knew they were going thur problems for a while now. Apparently he is a right bugger to live with. I cant stand it that parents use their kids as a pay check. What the hell do they do when the kids are grown up and moved out.
The same pisses me off with britney spears ex. Has four kids but i see he didnt fight for the other two from the stripper. That guy is a money sucking lazy fat slob. He even has a nanny and doesnt have to be a 100% hands on dad. I love it when i open mags and he sits there with the kids on his lap. What a schmarotzer... grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Kids are not to be paraded like dogs in show.

I think it's kinda sad really, I think in the beginning it was probably just a novelty, and obviously helped them out financially, I don't think any of them could have known then how 'far' it would go.
But then it turned into a 'busness', they started getting all the sponsors jumping on the bandwagon (their choice to accept them) They started getting more and more money for doing the show, then started getting greedy! Now neither of them work outside the home, they have started to see themselves as celebrities and now have bought into that 'entitlement' frame of mind! You can tell from the interviews they do now, that everything is not how it used to be between them. They have estranged themselves from pretty much every other member of both their families, almost like they are too 'good' for them now. I used to love watching the show, but now I find myself getting really pissed off with it, so I don't watch it any more unless there is nothing else on. There are lots of blogs out there about the show, it seems that there are a lot of people getting fed up of all the crap!

Just curious - did they mention in what way he was so difficult to live with. Personally I think she's the one with major mental challenges......

So I admit I had to tune into last nights show just to see what they had to say! Anybody else watch? Looks to me like they are over, both did separate interviews until the end when they were both on the sofa but body language was about a mile apart, when they asked them what the future held, the both kept silent. She kept saying that she was doing the kids party alone and it seemed like he has moved out of the house......I don't like her any more than I did before but it seems like he is acting like a jerk.

Is there anybody else who doesn't have a clue who these people are? Or is it only me? Are they important? Do I need to go and research them? Or will life carry on for me just dandy without ever knowing?
