Last night's Law and Order: SVU was a brilliant ripped-from-the-headlines satire based heavily on the Duggars and other high profile sex abuse scandals, including a side plot pulled from the story of sex offender and Jon and Kate editor Bill Blankinship. If you missed it, you can watch the full episode on NBC.com or below.
Who done it? Was it the pervert camera man who saved naked footage of the girls? What about the creepy older brother who was shipped off to Ecuador for a "mistake"? Could the Warren Jeff-like pastor-slash-lawyer have something to do with this? Are the Bakers really a Bakers dozen or will DNA prove otherwise? Mariska and the team crack the case within the hour with a couple great zingers (Chastity Empire, lol!), a lot of binge watching and some solid detective work. Well done, SVU.

New topic: food! I always look forward to thanksgiving, that is the only time I can find a mincemeat pie in the freezer section. Except the stores I frequent aren't stocking mincemeat pies! Oh, what a crisis, with thanksgiving just two weeks away!
Has anyone made mincemeat pie before. The store has the Nonesuch brand of mincemeat with a recipe on the jar. I might try it. Any tips from pie makers? Thanks in advance.

I remember him doing Jello Pudding and Jello Pudding Pops. Did he do regular jello ads too? If not, you're safe doing the green goop.
Joy, us mincemeat lovers are a dying breed, I'm afraid. I've never made it, but my husband makes mincemeat tarts every year at Christmas. To me, you have to have the coarse, crunchy sugar on the top crust to send it over the top delicious. I don't know if he uses a recipe or has his nana's recipe in his head.
One of my favorite sauerkraut dishes is Polish Bigos, or Hunter's Stew. It is a hearty and rustic dish, and this recipe from Saveur is very close to mine.
PJ, please tell your husband his internet five minutes of fame are guaranteed if he will share the recipe to his mincemeat tarts!

Haha! Deal. I'll ask him. Can he get a cooking show? He could outcook sKate any day of the week and twice on Sundays. (he's kinda messy, though)
According to an article by People and a preview clip they posted, Kate plus 8 will be returning Dec. 8(not the 15th as Kate stated).
The preview shows them in Florida and the back to school shopping. It also shows that the construction that Kate mentioned is a building a deck in the back of the house.
And get this--Kate also goes on a blind date in NYC. Could that have been the revised story line when Jeff became unavailable?

Lol, what a doofus!
I called it, they're telling her very little. She don't know what's going on any more than we do. They don't care to keep her in the loop. They're a network and a business, she's filler, second string, and they'll let her know what's happening when and if they feel like it.

Wait, in Mexico Kate was bitching about people asking her about dating and then she puts her dating out there on her show?
You know, nothing says blind date like a production company vetting a stupid stunt suitor and having it take place in NYC.
It's so fake.
I wonder if this "blind date" was TLC scrambling to make an episode after Jeff had a moment of clarity and cut ties with Kate.
6 or so years after divorce, this woman is expecting people to be enthralled by her going on a blind date.
Yawn. Millions of people break up or divorce and move on, so what's so special about watching Kate be socially awkward and stunted?

So, Kate gets a 100K+ deck, a fantasy mock date in NYC complete with helicopter ride and the kids are given a crazy schedule to film them being a bunch of whiny kids.
How to end a first date? Duh. You get into your stretch limo, replete with tacky lights, and get whisked off to your luxury hotel where you married "road manager" awaits.
Who doesn't do that????
From the promos of K+8, their lives look more 1% than ever before.
Incredibly lux.
I guess the "poor single mom of 8, piecing and patching" doesn't know how to help Kate anymore.
So it looks like her season will be 4 specials - 5 or 6 if they cut them up. Back to school shopping at their age? Everyone but the twins wears a uniform so this should be an exciting episode. Another vacation? Go to the beach, go to a fancy restaurant and have an expensive meal, have TLC cater a meal that TFW will pretend to cook. Blind date? Rehash of foot licking trip and girls night out in Cabo (or wherever they went last year). Building a deck when they don't really need one? Yup, she's piecing and patching. Manufactured fun and chaos and not reality in any way shape or form.
That "date" episode tells me that the boyfriend storyline with whatshisname was true. I wonder if they filmed the blind date after he backed out.
If anything, Figure 8 and Kate are resourceful. Everything must have been set up for NYC but Jeff bailed so they quickly had to come up with a date scenario for filming. It was all about ratings, just like Jeff's source said.
OK, I just actually watched the promo. UGGH. So awkward. Same mom yelling at kids. Same teen sassing her mom. One tup says it should be called Kate plus Kate because mommy does everything. But the way she says it doesn't sound like she means mommy is the hardest worker, but the attention hog.
The blind date definately confirms that the Jeff thing was supposed to be a story line. Remember their "construction" project? It was a huge new (free) deck. Their free vacation to Florida, their free back to school shopping (remember the sheep trying to get that poor girl employee in trouble for dissing TFW acting like a queen)?
Same old same old
Screaming kids, shopping, hand flapping, couch interviews. The two minute snippet said it all.
Wonder where TLC dug up the fake suitor?
Nothing says fascinating like a new version of same old back to school shopping and summer vacation aired in DECEMBER. Oh and Kate gets a new deck, paid for and executed by TLC, now that's so relatable. No comment on the faux date since that is just ridiculous.
OrangeCrusher1
Someone will have to check out her date's name to see what his acting credits are. She's starting to get that perpetually surprised look from all her de-aging and those painted on brows, just wow!
local, I would say 99.9% the NYC date was filmed after Jeff bailed. She must have blown a gasket because it was carefully coordinated about them being a couple months before so it would follow that she wanted to film the relationship. She may have hired a pap to take those candid dinner and casino photos. I don't think much of Jeff Millionaire, but he did the right thing.

Whoever it is, be prepared to be outed and have your life all over the internet. If TLC is pulling a fast one, it will be exposed. Oh, well, this year has been boring on the sKate front.
LOL, she'll be a cat woman by the time she is 50. Meow!
@localyocul I remember that!They were really trying to get her fired for not liking Kate,they even showed her tweet where she saids"who cares about Kate,shes nothing special"and said that it was bad customer service.If this was any other celebrity or if the woman praised Kate,they wouldn't of cared.I hope she didn't get fired.
The "Kate + Kate" show! The kids have their vainglorious mother's number.

I wouldn't be surprised if the "blind date" turns out to be one of TLC's crew members. Or perhaps, it's someone Deanna knows and managed to convince to fill in at the last minute.

I don't think she cares how much they trifle with her as long as she sees a paycheck and all the other perks. It's a good thing Schmoops has no self-awareness otherwise what they're doing to her would be quite humiliating. If she had any dignity she wouldn't put up with it.

We had an nest that DH tried to deal with in daylight, and he couldn't run away fast enough once he disturbed them! Got stung a few times.
Otherwise, the wasps were flying to and from the nest and not bothering us.
We called a professional to deal with it. He said you never want to spray when they're active during the day.
Bad news!
That deck was major-ass money. We had ours replaced, also with some patio reworked, and you can't imagine how much that construction costs.
If TLC paid for it, wow. How did she finagle that?
Where I live, it's necessary to take out a building permit for a deck. If the same is true in Kate's county, did she take her flat tush down to the building department with the plans? Would be interesting to see if TLC's name is on those forms.
Sullen, carping, unhappy kids. A (no doubt paid) suitor for a wholly fictitious "blind date." More $$$ lavished by the TLC sugar-daddy on yet another unnecessary luxury home upgrade for one of the most unlikable and undeserving people on the planet. Add in Kate's by now very tired go-to line: "I don't get it," AND a classic one-liner (from her child no less) that sums it all up perfectly: It's Kate Plus Kate! Wow, sounds like a recipe for major ratings success--not.
I am pleased to see, though, that after a fairly lengthy absence from the tabs, Kate's fake life-drama is not racking up many comments on Twitter. And the comments to the People piece are overwhelmingly negative. Most everybody is over her--except her.
For anyone who knows: Would Kate have to declare this new deck as income of some sort? How does that work?

SIX screaming adolescents, so riveting.
Yes, new deck, but don't dare use it as intended! See her wiping up with a paper towel?
The date? f$@&* she has got to be theeee most awkward, socially inept person I have ever seen. She is so out of her element it borders on being creepy.
She still hates her kids I see.

It says right on the damn can to spray in the evening. We get wasps behind our shutters every year. She's such a doofus
Something you can use for hornets, not when they are active of course, it's WD 40. For reals. It has a little plastic straw you can put on the nozzle so you can spray it inside the hole to the nest.
Also when dealing with wasps and hornets the wasp and hornet spray that will reach twelve feet or so is a must.
They are pollinators, so only spray the nests that are located too close to the house. The wasp next on the back of my shed can stay there.

or sound of the woman.
I find it disturbing that M said going into high school isn't cool.

been picked up by her children -- or at least this one child.
TFW isn't into hard work. She isn't intellectually curious.
She isn't a reader. She doesn't seem to be goal oriented,
unless that goal has a dollar sign on it. And even then,
she is bone lazy. None of those qualities reflect a person
who values education.

Agree. and not just negativity about school, but anything really-other than materialistic things. Actually, scratch that-they complain about luxury vacations, parties, new bedrooms...spoiled rotten to the core
In some ways i feel the relationship between Mady and Kate reminds me of my cousin and aunt.In the sense that even though no matter much mady dislikes her mother and her attitude,deep down she's just like her.Same way my cousin and aunt relationship is.Even though mady at times can be a pain,there are times i do feel bad for her,cause after Jon left they needed someone else to fill in the drama role and its now the drama between mady and Kate,that is the drama.I do feel Kate in some ways is like my aunt and that she doesn't care about her kids feelings cause from the look of mady when Kate hit her with the ball,it did look like it did hurt and Kate didn't seem to care.
I think the problem with M and school is that she's not that great a student (by her own admission) and high school is much harder and more competitive than lower and middle school.
I know you can't tell everything from a short clip, but when the wasp nest is first shown it is hanging from what looks like a ceiling. Then they show Kate spraying a nest dangling on the side of her house.
All wasp(or hornet) nests that I have seen have always been in compact spaces like a roof eave or overhand. I even had a wasp nest in the vent for my stove fan. I have never seen one just hanging there on the side of a house.
This just seems like more fabricated drama to show how poor Kate has to do it all, even though it does make her look totally dumb for spraying a nest during daylight hours.

Nothing more to add here, is there? lol
The only person's feelings that matter are Khate's. She cannot or will not acknowledge or even recognize anyone else's feelings. As far as she's concerned, you don't even deserve to have feelings. You are there to fulfill her needs and feelings.
Haha from a verified NPR TV critic :
@Deggans: TLC still hasn't learned its lesson; new season of Kate Gosselin's Kate Plus 8 debuting in December. Arg.
Watching Kate's extremely awkward interaction with a man on a date, and "not getting" dating after divorce, it occurs to me that the sheeple just might have had it wrong all along.
I suspect Kate wasn't just not a fit for Jon, but not a fit for long-term commitment and marriage to begin with.
Sheep blame Jon for being such a horrible husband and experience that he put Kate off of men, or dating or marriage. But, I'm beginning to think that Kate's not one of those people who can give herself to someone else. It's too selfless for someone so wrapped in themselves.
Kate talks about getting married again, and says the kids squeal about it and bang their fists, demanding another daddy, but I call bullshit.
I think Kate likes not having to pretend to know how to love someone. It must be a real relief, especially after having to do it for the cameras all those years. It's just not in her dna, which is ok, but Jon shouldn't be on the hook for ruining Kate's outlook on partnership and marriage.
She never had it in her to begin with.
That marriage and Jon had a short shelf life from the start. Kate got what she wanted and jettisoned Jon, as she does with everyone who's met her needs.
Wow. Epiphany. I need a cookie...
Why is the date so bachelorette-ish? My goodness, whatever happened to a spaghetti dinner at the local Italian place and a round of miniature golf? Heaven forbid you should be home in time to say goodnight to your kids.
I don't think I'd be able to participate in such a charade without bursting out laughing and how ridiculous it was. Sheesh.
Tucker's Mom (#63), oh, yeah, it's all about TFW. Always.
I don't think she's ever been smitten with her own flesh and
blood children, so I think it'd be a real stretch to believe she
could give enough of herself to have any kind of balanced
romantic relationship.
I won't be watching, but it should be amusing to see TFW feign
interest in another human being on a date. Or did they just
hire someone who would let her talk non-stop about herself,
the way she likes it?

Not only bachelorette-ish, but why film it if you are truly serious about dating? This so fake and TLC/Kate must think there are one million suckers out there who will believe this woman is actually on a REAL blind date. OK, if that many tune in, then I guess there are.

No. She's not wired for a healthy relationship. Frankly, it's unfair to try to wrap someone up in that. Something is wrong with her, a personality disorder probably, but I would have more respect for her if she recognized how selfish it would be to try to start some kind of relationship with a nice man, and just bowed out of that whole scene. At least until she's gotten a lot more therapy and is ready to really sincerely be a participant in something healthy and end all this dickering around.

It just goes to show how fake the show is.
Who has to packed their bags to go on a first date.
Kate, in her unending inability to "get" how she comes across to her mediocre audience, chooses over and over again to peddle herself as a poor, put-out mom of 8, all while living a celebrity lifestyle.
I don't envy Kate's trip to NYC for a "date". It's not real. There's nothing to envy.
It's laughable, in fact. Seeing how crippling it is for Kate to eke out a date, or darn near every single task that's shown on K+8 that requires normal social interaction.

No therapy in the world can help/change this woman. It would also be grossly unfair if she went for therapy to snag a man and not to stop being a child abuser.
I went back and re-read ET's "exclusive" article about Kate getting dumped by Jeff. The article states:
"The trouble started over Labor Day weekend, when the source says Prescott got cold feet about filming Gosselin's reality show, Kate Plus 8. He ended up canceling production plans just two days before the New York City shoot, after months of planning and preparation."

I really love when tabloid information later starts to line up perfectly with the facts. The sheeple love to poo poo the tabloids but the reality is that they are often later proven to be right on the money, and that's a fact. They're not sitting there fabricating stuff. They have their sources, and once in awhile a source is bad, but often, a source is good. They're willing to go with things others might be more conservative on. It doesn't make them wrong. Even the NY Times has a big correction page every day. No one is immune from mistakes but tabloids are not all fiction as the sheeple would love to believe.
This just seems like more fabricated drama to show how poor Kate has to do it all,

I'm going to go out on a limb and predict that one of these days one of the kids, more than likely Mady, will splice together a string of her own videos she's secretly been recording of what REALLY goes on in that house and put it out there for the world to see.
Just wait until she has a serious blowout with her mother. Then we'll see who's doing what and when in that family. That would sure make for 'real' reality tv.

I'm talking about this as if it's real, which it's not, but there's another huge problem with this date. It's hyped up to such a degree that number one, it puts a huge amount of pressure on both parties during the date. Instead of just relaxing and talking over a nice simple dinner and actually getting to know the person and see if maybe you want to continue the conversation with a second date, you've got this huge production going on. You can't possibly focus on what should be the real task at hand. Secondly, the rest of the relationship cannot possibly live up to the wild first date. What a ridiculous recipe for disaster and I have no respect for any man who would even dream about participating in this.
AuntieAnn (#75), I know what I'm askin' Santa for this year!
Yes, the stakes will be getting higher and higher to keep the twins filming, and something will go awry. Let's face it, 15-year-olds
aren't known for having great judgment. And with social media,
those bad decisions can be preserved forever. Stay tuned.

At the same tim, you can't possibly focus on being just a kid, a parent, a spouse, a friend, a sibling, -a BODYGUARD while cameras are capturing "reality"
I like the way her "date" said "You're looking very young tonight". Wouldn't most people say "you look very nice" or something similar? Was Kate whining about turning 40 again, and that was supposed to be some sort of compliment saying that she looks younger than she is?
I just thought is was an odd thing to say, especially on a "blind date".
Those kids SCREECHING during that bomb diffusing activity? ugh
It's chaos. Take away the cameras and entourage, and those kids behaved that way at an establishment? I'd be glaring. I would hope they'd be asked to leave. She was the one screeching when they were toddlers/little to get attention, "hello???" The July 4th parade, the whale watching, the turtle crossing... see what she's created?
I watched the "teaser" clip, but won't be watching Kate and her brood's "season". So it was a very expensive deck she wormed out of TLC? Simply amazing, isn't it? smh
And she can be filmed "blind dating" all she wants, but I still say there is no man out there with money and self-respect who would want to take on the witch and her kids. Sex? Sure. Long-term relationship? Nope.
After all these years, I still don't understand how this lazy, no-talent woman deserves all that has fallen into her lap. I'm still awaiting her karma train, but it apparently has a lot of stops.
"But according to a press release for Kate Plus 8, the show will include scenes of the mom dipping her toe back in the dating pool. “Kate wants to finally start dating again, so with the kids in mind, she makes sure everyone supports this next step,” reveals TLC, “but even with the kids on board, Kate’s unsure of how her blind date will turn out.”
Um, TLC, get your lies straight with your talent, mmk? Kate has said that the kids are yelling at her to get them a new daddy! Many, many times in fact.
After 6 years? Of what? Revirgination?

Oh brother. Anyone buying this same old wagonload full of streaming horse manure has got to be dense. The G8 know what their mother was like when she was married to Jon. They don't want to be put through that again. They don't want to see her badger another man again. Not only that but how many kids their ages even care what their mother is doing on a Friday or Saturday night.
They're supposed to have their own lives to live but noooo, they're burdened with these asinine scripts just because mommie dearest won't quit this nonsense and TLC needs a filler episode. That's just mean.

Kate's mindset is why some women go way overboard with cosmetic procedures. They want to look "young", not good for their age.
Kate's doing OK as far as aging and looks, albeit with cosmetic procedures.
She has to be careful because she's on the ragged edge of putty face.

Possibly, considering that TLC posted the video clip on their website and titled it "The Maiden Voyage".
http://www.tlc.com/tv-shows/kate-plus-8/videos/the-maiden-voyage/
Ha! what a lame acting and actors. Anyone noticed the guy has a wedding band on? Appears Deanna has more to offer than Jamie. She can do hair and make-up AND nanny the kids. No husband or children waiting at home for her like Jamie has. Kate knows how to pick 'em
I watched the clip @ ROL and the 'blind date' looked kind of familiar. Wonder if TLC picked the blind date from this website?
https://www.gigsalad.com/Actors-Actresses-Models/Male-Actor-Adult/NY/New+York+City
Everyone in the clip seemed pretty unhappy and some kids continue to insult Kate. The boys seemed ok with swimming and the magician. That household and many of its members appear to be dysfunctional and selfish.Sour pusses on all the females.

*****************
Good catch. I can't watch the clip again, but what a rookie mistake on the part of TLC & Kate the Producer. But it also gives her an out for the blind date not working out--2 possible stories would be he is widowed or separated. Or misrepresented himself as separated.
Cue the dabbing at the eyes with a tissue.
Ok has Kate gain fans?Why is the TLC video saying an all new season and not all new specials?I really hope they didn't renew her show.If they did,i really don't know anymore as to how she got a show again when last i herd,her view count wasn't even that good and didn't even get over 1 million views?SMDH
I looked. I believe the fake suitor is wearing a class ring on his left hand, not a wedding ring, not that it would matter to Kate, LOL. She appeared really stiff with him at dinner. And to say you are looking young tonight?! That is really weird. Like she ordinarily looks old but tonight she looks young? Scripted for sure. She looks every bit of 40 with all the makeup and fake tresses. The only time someone tells me I look young is when I tell them my real age so maybe she told him she was 40.
Kate's mindset is why some women go way overboard with cosmetic procedures.
====
I don't know why she's so afraid of getting older. There's only one other option.
Susan1956, I thought the guy looked familiar too. Maybe he has done TV commercials?
This blind date fakery is perhaps a test to see if there is interest in a dating show? You know, what she has been plugging for years? If the clip was the best they could offer, I doubt she has the chops to pull it off. And Deanna asking her if this was her FIRST blind date and Kate acted like some shy thing answering her. Really?
I read on Reddit that one of the people on My Strange Addiction said that she was made to look foolish, there were hours and hours of filming, told to repeat lines with different inflections, etc.
https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/2lg7wg/i_was_featured_on_tlcs_my_strange_addiction_ama/
So we are on the mark that those kids have spent HOURS filming and it's all scripted.
TLC Stinks (#104), maybe he said "You're looking very young tonight"
because he was told she was 50.
I wonder if she asked the director to have him say "You're looking
very young and skinny tonight," and she settled for the one
compliment.
Has TLC finally figured out that the kids are no longer a draw and they're trying to get something going with sKate? Boy, are they barking up the wrong tree. The kids were always the draw, not her, so if the kids are done you can stick a fork in her too.
Discovery must be taking in big bucks and TLC must have one helluva budget to keep giving tfw free home "improvements and trips. All for a no talent wannabe and her " shrieking" children

Joy, us mincemeat lovers are a dying breed, I'm afraid. I've never made it, but my husband makes mincemeat tarts every year at Christmas.

A refrigerator with a built in Keurig system? A year or so ago she was just tweeting the refrigerator company of her very upscale refrigerator because of a leak or something. So now she's (read that as TLC) dropping at least $3K on a new one. New deck, new fridge, trip to Florida for all...piecing and patching my ass. Yeah we know that she's doing everything on TLC's dime but she's pretending that she's doing it all on her own. Yup, the realist reality show out there.
The ROL article really plummeted to the bottom of the page. There are only 7 comments, all negative LOL
Hm. Lots and lots of "stuff." Not a whole lot of substance.

I went back and re-read ET's "exclusive" article about Kate getting dumped by Jeff. The article states:
"The trouble started over Labor Day weekend, when the source says Prescott got cold feet about filming Gosselin's reality show, Kate Plus 8. He ended up canceling production plans just two days before the New York City shoot, after months of planning and preparation."
&&&&
I really love when tabloid information later starts to line up perfectly with the facts. The sheeple love to poo poo the tabloids but the reality is that they are often later proven to be right on the money, and that's a fact. They're not sitting there fabricating stuff. They have their sources, and once in awhile a source is bad, but often, a source is good. They're willing to go with things others might be more conservative on. It doesn't make them wrong. Even the NY Times has a big correction page every day. No one is immune from mistakes but tabloids are not all fiction as the sheeple would love to believe.

Not when it comes to Katie but with others? They're never right on who's preggers or divorcing or getting married.
"haha ncgirl! Jinx!"
Great minds think alike, Auntie Ann. :)
Praise the Lord. We have a name for Duggar baby. Spurgeon Elliot. The middle name is fine,but the first one. I thought there'd be a Biblical name in there. Maybe it's a family name. Well, he'll be homeschooled so he won't be teased.
Of course, People magazine announced the name.
Moody Spurgeon! Fave Anne of Green Gables name after Marilla.

She is not done. Neither her solo "career" or one with the kids. Katie Lazarus has something that makes TLC keep resurrecting her. What...I don't know, and this is a huge mystery. Why does she keep coming back? Why does she continue to get free stuff just for the asking? Will Karma never come? It certainly appears to be taking its good old time, .and in the meantime she's laughing all the way to the bank, and Milo continues her drooling and giddiness. Although we don't know if Milo is the wife and mother she claims to be, or an 80-year-old catfish in a facility somewhere, one thing is certain. There is a very strong physical attraction she/he has for Kate. It's not just about "supporting" a celebrity. She/he wants to bed her, no doubt about it. It's so darn obvious.

I'm not going to watch the clip -- still can't tolerate the sight

I find it disturbing that M said going into high school isn't cool.
And to me it shows that TFW's negative vibe about school has
been picked up by her children -- or at least this one child.
-----
Except Mady didn't say it with a negative or snotty tone. I did watch the clip and it seemed to me that she was just trying to express that the cool thing for her was not going to high school but rather getting to wear regular clothes to high school. Kind of in way things are expressed in those "priceless" commercials...
I know iv'e posted alot today but last 1 for tonight.I don't know why TLC does this either.Most of the comments on people were negative and only around 35.Her facebook only got 3,000 likes and its the usual fans on twitter cheering.Her last specials didn't even reach 1 million views.I really hope you guys are right bout her being filler for the kids sake.But at this point,i don't see TLC ever stopping filming of the Gosselin kids.
I noticed Colin was specially featured during the magic lesson. I have a feeling there will be a whole lot of "look how happy Colin is" scenes in the upcoming shows.
Cable TV is in crisis. What was bad ratings only a few years ago is now acceptable. They are scrambling to try to compete with streaming services and plug pullers. Kate often has all the luck and she has benefited from this. When you look at cable ratings across the board, even very popular shows aren't pulling impressive numbers anymore. Look at Breaking Bad's ratings. They're nothing special. It's very likely that a huge portion of Breaking Bad fans simply watched it on Netflix at their convenience, and didn't have anything to do with their ratings numbers. The show was considered a masterpiece and a wild success when the ratings were run of the mill.
A million viewers was enough to get her cancelled a few years back. Now, a million viewers is going to keep her on the air.

Good grief, woman. Take a cold shower.
Someday she will corner one of these guys and get her hug. I really don't think she cares which one it is. Any old port in the storm will do.
If there were teenage boy sniffers around, they were recruited for drama. With the crew following the girls around, I can see some boys being curious. Frankly, neither of the girls are stunners and would attract attention on their own. However, their mother with her boobs hanging out and bikini would make heads turn.
TFW shouldn't be surprised that all the (alleged) dates she can get are blind ones. Unless there's a payday involved, a guy would have to drink himself blind in order to acquire the necessary "beer glasses", since that's the only way TFW can look beguiling to something other than vultures and wolves.
How did those boys in Florida manage to meet the girls when they were behind the velvet ropes?
Didn't they read the sign?
"Special Event!!!!!!!!!!!"
When the girls meet guys in this type of place it must be very embarrassing for them to have TFW come prancing around in her barely there bikini (with cameras in tow). She will be that mother that wants to be the center of attention with all of the boyfriends.
Of course the boys were recruited. They'd have to get parental consent and sign those pesky CA papers.
Gosh, I can't imagine there wouldn't be dudes lining up around
the block for a very special blind date with Kate Gosselin! Hey
guys, check her out on Youtube, and then check your cojones
at the door, because you won't be keeping them for long.
Like most casual blind dates, yours has taken 2 months to plan,
in a conference room of a cable TV network in Maryland. And
even if it's just a 3-hour date, it may take several days to shoot,
so make sure you don't get spaghetti sauce on your shirt.
Continuity is crucial in the realest reality show on TV. And
you may have to repeat actions and lines a few times -- make
sure you're just as enthusiastic on the 10th take as you were
on that first one. Oh, and don't forget to sign that non-disclosure agreement, and your check will be in the mail in 30-60 days.
Sure sounds like the recipe for true love to me!
Of course she's in her traditional bikini. Of course
The alleged blind date was a quick fix after Jeff Millionaire bailed. Everything was set up for shooting in NYC. A blind date was the only scenario. There's no other way she could have replaced Jeff other than cancelling the shoot. And we know she never misses the chance to visit NYC with Stevie. By keeping on schedule she killed two birds with one stone: she told the "truth" she and Jeff were not involved; she's not involved with Steve. The icing on that cake is she is attempting to get her foot in the door with a dating show. The "date" was very important to her and TLC. The weakness to the plot is the suitor once someone figures out he was a plant. The guy has got to be someone with acting aspirations because a normal person would never allow such an intimate thing be filmed. Deanna is somehow involved because she was in the limo. Makes me think she will claim the guy is an acquaintance and went along for the ride to introduce them. Deanna claims to know people in the biz. He may very well be someone she knows who was looking to get his mug on TV and make some money. She's doing it.

How much longer can TLC/Figure 8 get away with a clearly scripted show without having to pay the kids the full amount they'd be entitled to under SAG rules? I realize they're not SAG members, but that is surely not by their choice. The lines around "reality" TV have become seriously blurred, and I wonder that SAG does not seem to be paying attention.
Here's an article that has more info about the new episodes that TLC provided.
http://www.orlandosentinel.com/entertainment/tv/tv-guy/os-kate-gosselin-show-visits-florida-20151112-post.html
"Kate Plus 8," the reality series with Kate Gosselin and her eight children, is coming to Florida.
The TLC series starts a new season of eight episodes at 9 p.m. Dec. 8. The show examines how Gosselin's kids are growing up and how the divorced Gosselin returns to the dating scene. The Florida visit includes a beach trip.
TLC provided this preview: "This season highlights a trip down to Florida where the family adventure includes a first time jaunt to a water park, a panic room activity that calls for teamwork and communication in order to make it out of the room on time, deep sea fishing that proves to be a challenge for some of the kids, and a home-cooked meal for the entire family by Cara and Mady."
TLC wasn't giving details about that water park.
More previews, courtesy of the channel: "Back home, Kate wants to resurrect one-on-one time with everyone, and sets up a spa day with the girls and a magic show with the boys. She also goes antique shopping with Cara and Mady, and puts together a culinary challenge where the older girls create their own teams with their younger siblings. Home improvement is at the top of Kate’s list this summer, which includes building a new deck that inspires Kate to throw a summer party for her family and friends, but will the deck be done in time for the party?"
What of the dating? "Kate wants to finally start dating again, so with the kids in mind, she makes sure everyone supports this next step," TLC says. "But even with the kids on board, Kate's unsure of how her blind date will turn out."

My thoughts exactly.
I hope Kate gets a dating show. Have at it. At least the kids will get a break from having cameras in their faces every weekend, holiday and school vacation they get.
The kids are old enough to have friends and activities, and just think of how much they'll adore Kate once she graces them again with her presence.
The kids have Jon, too, so I say, let Kate hit the road.

Oh dear Lord. You nailed it, KIAT. And I just threw up a little in my mouth.
Wonder why the Gs need that new deck shown in the TLV clip. They have the POOL and lawns as far as the eye can see. It seem to cause nothing but arguments. Oh, right, that's what TLC thinks viewers care to see- arguments over a new 'gift' for them on top of vacations, shopping sprees, meals out, paid dates, magician shows etc. And why is Marley making her 3rd appearance? What are her parents hoping- she will get a spin-off? Or at least a fat paycheck?

This article was posted more than 17 hours ago and only three comments (and one comment to a comment). All three negative
The problem with a dating show is that I believe she will somehow to still involve the kids and, well, how embarrassing for them to watch their mother dressed like a hooker with strange men. She is nasty with that micro mini skirt she wore with the suitor dude. She tries to come off as a prude but her style of clothing implies she is a tease.
A party on the brand new deck for family and friends????? The same bunch as always plus crew daddies.
deep sea fishing that proves to be a challenge for some of the kids,
))
AGAIN???
First of all, there is a large part of the year you can't use the deck due to poor weather. It becomes a very seasonal thing. What's more, from what I've seen they already have a nice patio area and grills. What's wrong with that area for outdoor gatherings?
Second of all as you said Formely, they have this great pool area. If I were going to do anything with some extra outdoor money I would add to that, maybe add a wet bar and cabanas. The Property Brothers made a great pool area at their own personal house, they even had a flat screen. You could do all that for the same budget as the deck, and the kids and their friends would absolutely love it. Friends would be over there in droves.
Finally, for someone who doesn't appear to do a lot of hosting at their house, I wouldn't be throwing down a bunch of money on more entertaining areas.

Poor kid. Parents are supposed to love their children, not saddle them with a ridiculous name.
If they really really really felt it was important to honor a 19th century European Baptist preacher, why not make Spurgeon the middle name?
Probably because Spurgeon will land them on the 'trending' list while Elliot will not.

"...a new deck that inspires Kate to throw a summer party for her

Oh my gosh, the nail-biting excitement! Especially when you get
to watch it 6 months after the fact.
And they can fudge the "friends" part by inviting Deanna, and maybe Pumpkinbottom will make an appearance. But there has not been a single relative of TFW's on the show in years, so to what "family"
are they referring?
What a snoozefest. But TLC is still willing to take whatever ratings
they can get from a known entity, rather than gambling on a brand
new show.
I was just remembering how TFW said, with a straight face,
that they never take "posh" trips. Yeah, I'm sure the 9 of them
were holed up in some motor lodge in Florida, padding down the
hall for ice to keep the snacks they brought from home cold.
Heifer, please.
Kate's still trying to promote herself as "the usual OCD" mom. And she's getting even more monotone in her voice-overs if that's possible.

Not that long after their Mexico vaca
I was just remembering how TFW said, with a straight face,
that they never take "posh" trips.
That absolutely floored me! There wasn't a hint of sarcasm there.
My gosh...look at all the special things they've done, and first-class all the way. And she doesn't even do any of the prep work for any of it; all she has to do is show up on time.
She is one entitled...uh....uh....woman.

How much you want to bet that Blue Apron will be part of the twins cooking dinner?
******
There it is. There it is.
Took a little while to shake out the shout outs to BA, but yeah, there it is.
The kids had a hard time deep sea fishing? Please no pukefest.

I don't want to contribute to ratings but how fun would it be to watch and have a drinking game? Blue Apron. Drink! Park City Mall Drink! Dog on bed Drink!
Agree. A bar area, outdoor kitchen, fire pit or fireplace by the pool area would have made more sense. Grilling on a deck? It gets stains.
It looks like the deck is on HUGE stone pillars. What was there before? Did they build those stone pillars for her? It's a second story deck FFS
"...a new deck that inspires Kate to throw a summer party for her
family and friends, but will the deck be done in time for the party?"

Never mind the deck. Will she be able to round up enough strangers willing to sign the NDA in time for filming?
Cue organ music.
Guess 8 'episodes' does make a 'season'. Summer in December, brought to you courtesy of the Duggar scandal. It amazes me that anyone at TLC still gives a rat's ass.
Spurgeon? On jeez from me too.

According to nameberry.com Charles Haddon Spurgeon was a British Particular Baptist preacher. Spurgeon remains highly influential among Christians of different denominations, among whom he is known as the "Prince of Preachers". But on babynamesmerschat.com, they say that Spurgeon is an English name for boys meaning "shrub".
Baby name wizard says that the name Spurgeon peaked in the 1890s at 24 per million babies.
Would it have killed Jessa and Ben to name him Michael or Robert or Benjamin or ...
I don't think boys were invited on vacation. From the way Kate mentioned the girls by name & then "3 teenage boys" & said something like "this is not ok with me" - I got the impression that the girls found some boys to hang with on the beach & Kate put a stop to that fun.
--
I don't think the girls found some boys to hang with. TLC found some boys. lol
It's really quite pathetic making your kids support themselves and their mom.
It's just beyond disgusting.
Localyocul (#180), Gladys is also guilty of the lying she's
accusing others of -- spreading rumors about child support
payments and restraining orders that had no basis in fact.
Her hands are as dirty as anyone else's in the twitter wars.

Kate's been disgusting since she started selling her kids' pictures at $20 a pop (cash only) back when she realized how easy it is to dupe people.

Fired Up 4 Kate @MiloandJack 38m38 minutes ago
@CJWhodunit @Kateplusmy8 Just becuz Kate allows small portions of their life 2b filmed is no invitation 4 "open season" insults & criticism!
((
Milo still acts like Reality TV is really just like filming home movies. No scripts, no voiceovers, no couch sessions. No take after take. "Small portions"? How about all summer long
Finally, for someone who doesn't appear to do a lot of hosting at their house, I wouldn't be throwing down a bunch of money on more entertaining areas.
*******
The deck is absolutely extravagant.
I have to default to TLC arranging this for Kate. I can't see Kate shelling out well over 100K for it.
I don't watch any reality tv anymore, so I want to know from any of you who do watch- have you seen anything like this? Vacations, shopping sprees, home improvements that are 6-figures EACH?
And they can fudge the "friends" part by inviting Deanna, and maybe Pumpkinbottom will make an appearance. But there has not been a single relative of TFW's on the show in years, so to what "family"
are they referring?
**********
The kids. They've been technically not lying about "family" for years.
Other than a quickie, awkward visit to Annapolis to see Jon's family, I don't know that any family has been accounted for.
It also seems like CJ realize BV failed the Kate fans since i herd BV made it his goal to get rid of all the Kate critics on not just twitter but i also herd facebook as well.Plus im not sure if this is true admin but,didn't you say in a very old post that BV was targeting this website and wanted you to take it down?I could be mistaken,so my apologies,im just trying to get as much info as i can when it came to the BV outings of haters.Nowadays it seems like hes struggling to get back on twitter and has to delete his account every week or 2.

Why is the date so bachelorette-ish? My goodness*******
Just please, no hot tub scene!
-------------------------
LOL!! The only thing worse would be TLC presenting them with an invitation to spend the night as a couple in the Fantasy Suite.
I've never had a problem grilling on a deck. No stains if the wood is treated right. I did get stains, however, grilling on a concrete patio.

Kate's still trying to promote herself as "the usual OCD" mom. And she's getting even more monotone in her voice-overs if that's possible.
*******
Kate doesn't show signs of OCD and as a nurse, she's once again making me SMDH that she was ever allowed to touch patients.
She's controlling and unwilling to bend.

I'm not sure if the pillars where there before, but it not, that is outrageously expensive to do.
Not the 2nd story deck, but the materials and labor to do stone columns.
If Kate paid for that, she should just stfu for the rest of her life about piecing and patching.
Can anyone guess what nickname Spurgeon might receive? Spurge?
Geon ("Jon")? I hope it turns out well. Me, I think a kid might prefer to be Elliot, but who knows what he's going to want to call himself.

It seemed to me that Kate had the kids filming the majority of the summer, when not with Jon, and into the school year.
Did the house have any kind of deck before this made up plot? I can't blame her for wanting one (but she should pay for it, not the kids) with a basement walkout, it is a pain in the butt to have to go down a flight of stairs to grill. Makes more sense that it's close to the kitchen. And grease is just as bad on patio stones/interlock as it is on a wood deck. It's probably her new suntanning spot as well.
The problem with a dating show is that I believe she will somehow to still involve the kids and, well, how embarrassing for them to watch their mother dressed like a hooker with strange men. She is nasty with that micro mini skirt she wore with the suitor dude. She tries to come off as a prude but her style of clothing implies she is a tease.
*****************************
you got it. She's in competition with everyone, even her teenage daughters. She has no boundaries. Her words say one thing, but her appearance/actions says another. Those girls will never be able to pin point how she will be sabotaging their relationships.
"Who Me?"
And talk about it being awkward with those boys. Round some guys up at the beach and then make them mingle. Oh, and let's have the cameras rolling as well.

-------------------
What will they call him? Spurgie? What kind of a parent does that to a child?
If they wanted to name him after this Baptist, why not Haddon? It's a decent name, or even Charles. Or even Charles Haddon!
Spurgeon Elliot Seewald.
Spurgeon is from Charles Spurgeon, the late 1800's evangelist.
I thought it was wow that his middle name is Elliot because of the beat down Law and Order SVU gave them!
Funny comment from daily mail UK:
Ugh...she seems the boring, repulsive, shallow type. I prefer to teach a ferret how to yodel.
