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.

Not only that...but what about the kids? The last episode Jodi was on was the one where she helped take care of all the Gosselin kids PLUS her own. It's obvious that the cousins all get along with each other. A previous episode showed Mady being very loving and caring for her cousin, Baby Benny.

Kate doesn't get along with her parents and never really made any mention of her other siblings...all she had was Kevin until now.

I have heard her mention her sisters, & her brother-in-law (I believe it was her sister Kendra's husband) was the one who helped Jon paint Mady & Cara's new room.

But I know what you mean, Kevin was always there. It has to be really hard for him. I just think that Jodi "speaking out" is wrong for her to do.

I just see it as Jodi sticking up for her sister. I'd probably do the same.

If anything, Jodi's sister is to blame for even starting that blog. Sure, Jodi got screwed, but Julie's no better than Kate for saying some of the things she did on that blog.

My family's got tons of dirty laundry and drama, but you don't see me airing it to the whole world. It's a shame how a disagreement between two women is affecting the whole family.

SO I took a couple of months off from watching this, mainly becuase my summer was very busy but also because I actually read some of the forums and hate-kate websites and I could tell it was affecting my opinion of the show.

So I watched last night and I have to say, I thought they had a great 4th of July and did all sorts of normal things (aside from the fact that the house they were in probably rents for ~ $3000 a week). and I've made the American flag cake that Kate made with the girls (only I hate cool whip so I used real whipped cream) and I do have to say it is really good.

Peak vacation season in OBX? In a house that big? Try upwards of $5-6000. Yikes.

Woops- I was looking at winter rates. But you are right. I'm sure the show paid for it.
