Real Life.


The best, funniest, and only movie about a family being destroyed by reality television. It will be required viewing on the Jon and Kate 101 Syllabus.

Eight tiny slaves.


Apparently the state of Pennsylvania thinks Jon and Kate are violating child labor laws and enslaving their children.

Kate as Sacrificial Lamb.

Today we find out that Kate gave Jon five dollars a day to spend when she was pregnant with the Plus Six. And like a plague of locusts, the unhappily single Carrie Bradshaw Vuiton-otrons at Us Weekly declared Kate an unfit mother and de-phallicating wife.

But but but. 

This was before there $50k an episode, before the reverse mullet, before Kate's stalking of the paparazzi. This is when the Gosselins were broke, Kate six months pregnant with her uterus closer to a seal's than a human's, and Jon -- Jon, that great, depressive, unhappy, hair-plugged symbol of 21st century multi-cultural male indecision -- was probably stealing from the kid's college funds to buy a used Halo 2 from a kid on EBay.

Here's the point: Kate may have a reverse mullet, she may have an addiction to tanning beds, she may even enjoy being famous, but it is quite clear she has kept this family together. With Jon in charge -- that human marshmallow, that uncircumsized alcoholic, that sexually infantilizing pig -- three of those kids would be performing in a small circus outside Topeka. 

Let's remember: Jon cheated. Jon hates Kate. And if the gossip magazine's weren't run by a bunch of self-loathing, wet double-cap-hold-the-foam-gurgling, single women who hid their fear of a life without children/love behind a curtain of sarcasm and misogyny, maybe our favorite reverse-mulleted mommy-natrix would get a little fairer of a shake.

Is this Kate?

Is this the Kate that we new in seasons 1-4? The Kate that we fell in love with (well in our own way...she was also very agressive and a total control freak)? The Kate that lived in a humble home and dressed in sweatpants and t-shirts? Now she is decked out in her white shades, diamond drop, and red leather jacket. I don't know how to feel anymore. I think maybe the rumors are true...she has bought into the fame. She looks a little too hollywood for me...

They Doubled Their Ratings!

Last night's episode scored 9.8 million viewers -- twice as high as the Season Four finale, which itself set a record as the most watched cable episode among women ever. 

Scenes From a Marriage



Who would think the most harrowing dissection of marital dissolution since SCENES FROM A MARRIAGE (rent the mini-series, not the feature version) would be a reality show on TLC about a pair of yokels who baselined a fertility drug? And yet there it was: he's moved out, moved on and seems bloated from alcohol addiction; she's turned from a simple, Mom-Jeans wearing double-shift dialysis nurse into an exurban Prada-head with a reverse mullet and an addiction to signing copies of her own memoir. All this in three years. 

Or was it just the last six months? Apparently, that was when things started to go wrong -- with both their marriage and Jon's hair transplants, which, like a poorly maintained lawn, only seems to be blossoming in the front of the yard. What did it? Jon's wandering eye? A new house on 24 acres? Kate's incessant eyebrow tweezing? Whatever it was, most crushingly they've never discussed it. At the episode's end, when they were sitting together on the couch for the first time, neither could quite explain what happened, or even what would happen next. It was marriage, Bergman-style: tightly coiled secrets, repressed anger, unexpressed disgust, all bursting open and then leaving in its wake nothing but pain and a sort of slack-jawed confusion.

And next week they're making brownies!

Do you feel sorry for Jon and Kate?

Tell me...do you feel sorry for Jon and Kate? Are they victims of the media or is this mess just a result of them exploiting their children in front of all of America? Tell us what you think. OMG's review was less then sympathetic - check it out.

Last family photo?

Is it possible that we saw Jon & Kate's last family photo at the sextuplets 5th birthday party?

Where did it all go wrong?

Here is the happy couple sharing a moment from last nights first episode of the season. Oy ve! This about sums it up...yowsers! Check it out!
