I saw OMG! Sextuplets! on WE last night and was not impressed. Is having a six pack the cool thing to do these days?

And did anyone see Kate on Dlisted.com yesterday? She made Hot Slut of the Week. I'm so not kidding!

Quote:

Birthday: March 28, 1975
Age: 33
Birth Name: Kate Kreider
Original Date of HS of the Day: June 19, 2008
Claim to Fame: Baby maker and reality TV star. Kate has given birth to twins and a set of sextuplets.
Where is she now? Kate is currently in her fourth season of "Jon & Kate Plus 8."
Why is she HS of the Week? Because I want to see Kate and Michelle Duggar battle it out in the end. Battle of the traumatized chochas!

I guess TPTB at Dlisted.com don't watch the show. Kate had the twins via chocha, but the sextuplets were delivered c-section!

I watched this for the first time last night. Yes, Kate is a shrew to Jon(who reminds me of an Asian Jack Black) but he puts up with it. I do like the way she's kind of sarcastic and snarky about the kids' foibles and personality traits, as I've heard enough "my baybeeeez are PERFECT" to last me a lifetime.

I got hooked on this show a few months ago, and I love it! Jon and Kate are definitely not perfect. She is a total control freak who needs to calm down and Jon could be a little more assertive.

But I've read some of those bloggers and people on those message boards and I swear they act like Jon and Kate are the anti-Christ! I just don't see that at all. I don't agree with everything they do and say, but we all know that the producers are out to make interesting TV and the editing reflects that!

The editing also reflects that Jon and Kate love their children. When I watch it, I see a happy, affectionate family who just happen to be HUGE. By the amounts of hugs and kisses I see, those kids are obviously loved and cherished by many people--not just the parents.

I ADORE Leah and Aaden....I swear I could just put them in my pocket and run off with them. Alexis too, if we could bring her screaming down a few decibels!

My BF and I disagree on a lot of things, and we both often want to get the last word in...but one of the things we learned from a friend is: "Do we want to be happy? Or do we want to be right and get the last word in?"

When you compare them now to the first two specials, I think Jon's gotten more assertive. He may very well be the quiet punching bag because he knows that the opposite will just make the situation more difficult.

Some of these JK8 message boards are ridiculous. Several viewers have said that Beth and Aunt Jodi will no longer be on the show because of Kate. Whether or not there's any truth to it, I don't know...but these viewers are scary and obviously have too much time on their hands.

I can't wait to see the episode where Jon cooks Korean food to teach his kids about their heritage! I don't know how cooking for them teaches them anything about their heritage, but it should be interesting. One whiff of the kim chee and I'm sure Kate will be going ballistic!

This is wise advice.

I don't think one meal will make much of an impact as far as their Korean heritage, but food is an important and strong part of a culture, so if it is part of an on-going effort it could be meaningful. When I was stuck up in New Jersey nothing was as evocative of home as food.

I just saw the golf outing episode and I thought it was SO CUTE that the boys all got their own clubs and stuff (even if they only actually played a little bit).

a family just came into my library - daddy and 2 sets of twins... so cute but i know it has to be HELL in that house. LOL. the boys looked to be about 6 and the girls were 3 or 4. soooo cute! but i was glad when they left.

I was flipping through my DVR's Scheduled Recordings and it looks like there will be new episodes on Sunday and Monday.

The Sunday episode is Gosselin Movie night, I think. Are you freaking kidding me? We're gonna watch them watch a movie?

Monday is Girls' Day Out. Kate takes all 5 girls to a paint it pottery store. This one should be interesting. Messy and breakable stuff! Let the meltdown begin!

Kate and Mady's melt down is guaranteed! Cara will only get cranky if she's tired. Alexis will scream when Kate yells at her for, Heaven forbid, trying to paint.

Okay, I thought it was pretty pathetic to ride on JK8's success to market TLC's new show "The Singing Office". For the past few days now they've been running those JK8 Music Video commercials, but you had to watch "The Singing Office" in order to see it.

JK8 even had an hour-long episode last night...and they're having another one tonight.

I'm glad that the entire show wasn't about movie night. I couldn't help but laugh when they said they were watching Planet Earth. Somehow I just knew that "survival of the fittest" was going to happen at one point, and the kids might have a hard time with animals killing animals.

Too bad Kate assigned an animal to each kid. It wasn't too pretty when Alexis the Lion killed and ate Aaden the Monkey.

I thought it was funny when "Alexis" ate "Aaden." Everyone, except Mady (of course), seemed fine with it. Mady just had to dramatize the event....sheesh I love animals too, but lions have to eat too.

I just thought it was cute when Collin said, "see you gotta stay with your brothers and sisters Aaden" and then Alexis went to kiss Aaden! lol.

The quote i still laugh at was the golf episode when Collin says "look daddy, i'm holding my big stick." I just thought of this thread and the whole which one's gay comments. lol.
