New episodes air Monday nights at 9PM.

I know they're well into this current season, but I read somewhere that the next season (the one that includes their trips to San Diego and Hawaii) starts in November.

Kate's definitely letting this get to her head. Jon could very well be feeling the same way, but from just watching the show, we all know Kate wants what SHE wants and things need to be HER way ALL the time.

I liked the show better when there wasn't any drama. I've said in previous posts that the shows lately just haven't been the same.

I'd hate for the kids to get picked on at school because their mom's like that. Pretty soon Kate's going to pull a Michelle Duggar and homeschool her kids.

Soo true, I feel the same. Though, I think my opinions of the show changed because of those posts & forums. Too bad too.


I know Kate is very overbearing, harsh, etc. But I feel so bad for her. As much as she complains and stuff, all this family going behind her back is ridiculous. I could never do that to a member of my family, no matter how much they hurt me.

I mean Jodi kept saying that she was all about family....well ok, just go ahead and bash your sister-in-law and her family. I wonder what Kevin thinks.

IMO.....There are some people in this world that should not homeschool....Kate is one of those people!!!!

Why do I say this? Because there are those out in this world that give Homeschoolers a bad name.....Get my drift?

Mine you, I am fan of the show, but I can just see Kate with her controlling personality trying to home school 6 kids of the same age at once, and I cringe!

Again, I am not bashing homeschoolers....I was homeschooler for most of my life, and I am now a teacher, so I see both view points!

If they're really that concerned about the kids, they need to call Child Protective Services now and go the legal route. If they're really only concerned about themselves (which is my personal bet) they're going to continue making themselves look ridiculous spreading what outsiders can only assume is slander. What was that mess about "Aunt Jodi" wanting compensation? Can someone cue the violins?

Time to Exit, John & Kate

An editorial on a blog called A Minor Consideration, a foundation that gives guidance to child stars. I think they have a point when they say that kids need privacy as they get older. Will be interesting to see what happens as they grow up.

I just watched the "Labor Day" episode where they took the kids back to the hospital and such where they were born, and the condo where they lived while they were waiting to get all the kids out of the hospital.

Something that I can appreciate about the Gosselins is the fact that they're very honest about their initial feelings about having 6 kids at once.

On alot of those "multiple baby TV shows" the families are just sooo excited to have that many kids they say "OMGG my babies ARE SOO WONDERFUL and we WERE so THRILLED to have them!"

J&K are pretty up front about the fact that they were pretty freaked out by it at first.

I just watched the episode about the kids going to preschool.

I was pretty surprised that Kate didn't homeschool the kids (I think she mentioned in past episodes that she wanted to).

It also surprised me that all 6 of them are in the same classroom. You'd think that after spending the first couple years of life together all the time, that she'd insist on them being split up.

I missed last night, but as for all the kids being in the same classroom- it depends on the size of the preschool. My son's preschool only had one class per age per day, so unless you split up the days they are there (some go Monday-Wednesday, others go Tuesday-Thursday or something) they pretty much have to be in the same class.

I'm almost positive the pre-school is at their church (the building and the surroundings looked familiar). Usually churches don't have many pre-school classes. I think they'll be split up when they get into kinder & beyond.


Also I don't know if it was mentioned, but Kate was on an episode of "Say Yes to the Dress." She went to go pick out a dress for the vow renewal in Hawaii.

That most certainly is their church's pre-school. http://gtaog.org/232384.ihtml (The church was mentioned in a Special Thanks in the closing credits) I recall Kate saying in a previous episode that "that's where the twins went and where the little ones will eventually go there too."

I can't believe how much the kids have grown. Hannah's quite the sassy one, it's cute. And Joel -- out of all the kids, I never thought he'd be the first to ride a two-wheeler. It makes sense, though, especially since he was one of the first ones to even want to start riding a bike.

ahh I haven't seen any of the episodes since August!
We either have chapter when it's on, or someone is watching something else (we don't get cable in our rooms. it's lame)

I like how the kids wore Shane Victorino's number. How awesome that a Hawaii connection was made again. Good timing too -- with the World Series going on and the Hawaiian vacation set to air next month.
