Is anyone else sick to death of Jon & Kate Gosselin?! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

ssudioTVgirl · 10-06-2009, 06:08 PM

Personally, I think they're both jerks and I am so sick of seeing them in the news all the freaking time. I mean, very valuable entertainment time they could use talking about INTERESTING things like music, movies and who has a new product coming out and we get stuck with all this Jon and Kate CRAP!! I think the news people would rather waste time on braindead baffoons like the Gosselins and Octomom so they won't have to do anything meaningful about what's going on in the world. Really, what the heck is so important about these stupid people?! They exploit their kids, exploit themselves. Is anyone else sick of these morons?!

I'm getting sick of both of them myself. Their kids deserve to have a normal life, which they're not getting thanks to the newsmagazines out there.

Marvo301 · 10-06-2009, 06:42 PM

I am definitely sick of them. And it's sad that it's the kids who have to pay the price for their parents egos.

I stopped watching in May when the breakdown started to play. I did enjoy the series till then and am sorry that "real life" has taken over this couple's life. I don't begrudge them the millions they have because this helped them financially to support the children. I wish them well.

Chocoholic · 10-06-2009, 08:00 PM

YES!!!!

Of course, the only people they're really hurting here with their behavior are their poor, innocent children. They're the only ones I truly feel sorry for.

I think John and Kate are actually the real-life versions of Ray and Debra Barone

APPLEI · 10-06-2009, 08:18 PM

YES!
i can't believe a show that run on an obscure cable channel is getting so much publicity.
Shows like this are driving Soap Operas off the air and i can't understand it
I try to ignore magazines at the cash registers because its mostly Jon & Kate on the covers
yes i do realize if Jon & Kate didn't sell magazines they wouldn't be on the covers

I enjoyed Cable TV much more before the glut of reality shows and infomercials

Retro4Life · 10-06-2009, 08:33 PM

I can't believe that anyone cares about these people; there is nothing special about them beyond the fact that they have 8 kids, and even that isn't that special. Dogs and cats regularly have litters and no one gives them a reality show.

Liza · 10-06-2009, 08:33 PM

Their house is not too far away from me, they're kind of the local "celebrities." Apparently Jon Gosselin hit on one of my friends at a bar recently (she told me "The guy has to pay child support for 8 kids -- I DON'T THINK SO!")

So no, I don't really get tired of this. I love watching the three-ring-circus. It's so stupid, but I'm amused by the whole thing.

AMEN TO THAT!!!!

I just had to share this. I've never, ever been a fan of the show (I think I've seen 1 episode in my entire life) but they are local to me so I guess I hear more than the rest of America... anyways, I had a dream last night that Jon wanted to stop the divorce because... Kate was pregnant with twins! How crazy would that be?

Let's hope it never comes true.

Here, here!

Anyways, in central Pennsylvania, Jon is pretty much the town joke. Kate has been known to be something of a b*tch, but the sympathy is totally with her since Jon's started hitting the singles bars. He looks so stupid trying to pick up 29-year-olds when everyone knows he's got alimony and 8 children to support.

Won't happen. Personally, I kind of hope he wakes up and realizes just how much he's walked away from.

TJL · 10-06-2009, 10:36 PM

I think the entire Gosselin clan has enjoyed their 15 minutes of fame.

Now it's time to say goodbye.

Bye Jon, bye Kate, bye...um..what are the kids names again? Is one of them Kaitlyn? Probably, right?
Eh, whatever.

Cara, Mady, Joel, Aaden, Collin, Alexis, Leah & Hannah

I'm still trying to memorize some words for my French quiz tomorrow but I have no trouble remembering the names of the Gosselin kids, oh well.

I remember back when the show started how everybody defended Jon because Kate treated him badly...things sure do change quickly
