Culture: TLC cancels “Kate Plus 8”; do you think Mady cried?

  • 150 episodes later, the Gosselins’ reality TV reign will end source
  • » This season will be their last. TLC decided not to renew “Kate Plus 8” after the current season. The network may continue to check in with the family — famously torn apart after Kate Gosselin divorced her husband Jon, with the reality TV fallout that followed — through televised specials. Thank goodness, because we were getting worried.

Culture: Can Kate Gosselin’s kids technically work? A politician says no

  • Pennsylvania Rep. Thomas Murt could hurt Kate Gosselin’s meal ticket. The state representative is trying to get the state’s attorney general on the case, saying that while child labor laws allow children to work in movies, television is off-limits. “We can all agree that as the number of film and television productions in Pennsylvania increases, the protection of children involved in those productions should be of paramount importance,” Murt said. He’s open to amending the law if it’s so desired. source

Culture: We will do everything in our power to stop Kate Gosselin

  • I’ve done enough years on TV that I feel like it’s a normal, comfortable, natural place to be. I’d love to be in a movie at some point, I’d love to be the voice of a cartoon character in a movie for my kids. I think that would be fun.
  • Kate Gosselin • Describing her desire to become a movie star as “Jon & Kate Plus 8” ends by force of Jon’s douchebaggery. Kate, you’re not the reason we hate everything about you. Really, it’s Jon. But because of that, we’re going to stand in front of any studio, any movie set, and opening, any theater that would have the words “Kate Gosselin,” “movie” and “starring” in the same paragraph. Host a talk show or something. But do not sully a second field in your quest to become a multimedia icon. • source

Culture: All this quote needs is Balloon Boy to cause a world implosion

  • I kind of have a crush on Jon Gosselin. I think he’s hot!
  • Octet Mom Nadya Suleman • Talking about the massive family that replaced her as the tabloid topic du jour this year. She had advice for Kate too, but who cares? We’re just scared of the idea of this woman procreating with that man. Wonder where one buys a house that holds 22 kids. • source

Culture: The voice of reason on Jon & Kate: Danny freaking Bonaduce?

  • It has nothing to with the camera. Blaming it on the show is not right. This is going to sound mean, but if the media is so concerned about the kids, then stop covering them. Then the kids won’t read it and nobody will know about it.
  • Former “Partridge Family” member/reality TV star Danny Bonaduce • Talking about the “Jon & Kate Plus 8” saga. Bonaduce says it’s not the reality TV cameras at fault with the relationship – it’s the cheating and general douchebaggery. With Jon blocking access to the family home from TLC cameras (because he’s a douchebag), it’s quite possible the show may not come back. We can only hope. • source

Culture: Our d-bag alarm goes off when Jon Gosselin’s name is mentioned

  • What a despicable human being. As you probably don’t know, we’ve spent the last few months largely avoiding the saga of the Jon and Kate Gosselin divorce, which has played out on “Jon and Kate Plus 8.” But we can’t anymore. Jon Gosselin has just doucheified himself so much that we have to say something. Dude was on ABC, saying that he can’t sit on a sofa with “someone right now that I despise.” You have eight kids with your wife. You probably shouldn’t be going out all the time, wearing Ed Hardy like you just got out of an Ibiza washing machine. You should be trying to make it work, bro. Did you hire Chris Brown’s PR team? source
