Jon & Kate plus 8 *series finale tonight 11/23*

This little article was on MSN entertainment, I thought the perspective was interesting about how will they go back to 30 minute shows about their lives?

Christine do you have a link to the article you saw on msn. I was wondering if the rest of the season was going to have shows that were previously taped because the kids bday was just a few weeks ago. i didnt know how they would keep taping the show. And it was so awful seeing the paparazzi staking out the kids bday party. I mean if they want to follow jon when he's out by himself or kate when she's out with herself than that's fine cause their adults but following little kids is pretty low.

that's really weird, i dont know if i really want to watch the show if its going to be focusing on the parent's marriage problems. I hope tlc just focuses on the kids for the rest of the episodes.

It was really sad and I felt bad watching. I know it's a reality show, but all of that seemed too personal. I felt like I was peeking through someone's window.

 

I feel bad for the kids, but here is my opinion

 

I believe that they should end the show now to try & save their marriage, but, i don't think that Kate is ready for it to end. Clearly Jon is.

I also think that Jon is being a little bit of a cry baby. His family wouldn't have had all of the opportunities that they have had to far if it wasn't for this show and the fans and now he's kind of like, whatever, I never wanted this.

 

I hope that they can resolve these problems and I feel horrible for the children. It broke my heart when one of the little girls said to Jon, "Daddy I dont want you to leave anymore" Aww man

 

According to the cable guide, there are only 2 episodes that are new & lined up. Hmmm..I wonder what the next episodes will be like.

PhillyBride- I totally agree with you. I felt awkward watching and like it was too involved for them to be addressing their maritial problems that way. Its hard to watch anyone go through that, but let alone this couple who has made their fortune on portraying a strong and healthy family.

 

I pray that they do get help for the kids sake, I hope they go to counseling. I hated seeing her cry and for a brief moment sided with Jon and his concerns of just wanting to be out of the spotlight. It must be so hard to live your life that way, especially having 8 kids!!

Oh man, I missed the episode last night and forgot to DVR it!

 

I have to catch a rerun ASAP. It is really sad how they are acting even in interviews though. I was hoping they would try and work through things rather they seem to just be giving up so easily.

 

We'll see what happens but my heart goes out to the kids.
