Oh yes it must be so so hard on them. Geez, what about Collin?! Here's a thought, how about VISIT the poor child on HIS BIRTHDAY and have a party for him there. That's what a real family does who is pulling together. They've truly just moved on with life without him, done.

------------

Was he in the new school, or whatever it is, on his birthday in May? I thought she gave him away in the summer.

Admin (#95), I'd love to hear Paul Petersen comment on that kind of grueling schedule.

&&&&


What state are they in??? No state that has laws about filming allows hours that long for babies. They must be in a state where they think "reality" is exempt. Are they SURE they're in compliance with child labor laws? Are they SURE regular entertainment laws don't apply to reality too? If I were them I'd check right quick on that.

I managed to watch a whole minute during the scavenger hunt. I noticed two of the stops were at their friends' parents' businesses. Little promo going on there. Are they really friends or hired friends?

Sad but true said...

She's trying sooo hard! Two thank-you tweets in a single show!

Watched 20 mins of that God forsaken #KatePlus8 bull shit & she's as boring as ever. Why tlc gives her a platform I'll never know

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

I was reading the Busby's stupid love story on their web site trying to find out where the hell state they live in, and I'm stunned. Adam, according to their how we met story, is a complete asshat. He asked her out on a date and she was so excited, and then he called and cancelled just before to HANG OUT WITH THE BOYS. Then, when he asked her out again some time later, to which for some reason she said YES, he made her wait while he drove them to his house first so he could change his work clothes. He also dumped his family on her that very same day and they questioned her the whole time while he was changing. Who is this asshole and where are his manners???

I'm surprised he ever got a second date out of her, much less got her knocked up the way he did. I don't know any woman who puts up with a guy like that. What a tool.

Sad but true said...

She did nothing except show up and scream.

I don't think party themes are necessarily "babyish". But they clearly could've planned something themselves.


&&&&

Depends what it is, depends on your kids. Usually a 12 year old birthday party is stellar if you do a mini destination birthday--laser tag, paint ball, pottery making, cooking class, beach day or iceskating, depending on your location and weather, whatever suits the crowd and budget.

Themes, with matching cakes, cups, napkins, hats, etc., do start to feel quite babyish with 12 year olds.

So if she has no help, who watched the kids during her mini media tour last week? God?

Yes, same Andrea. She should be help-less with 12 year olds and 16 year olds good grief.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

I find it gross and pathetic when Gladys hashtags the kids' names. They are not an effing commodity waiting to trend online -- even if Gladys and their own mother think they are.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

I wonder if she's been kicked out of the few nanny agencies in the area. I imagine she could find agencies in Philly. But agencies will kick you out if they get consistently poor reports from nannies. I always wondered what those parents did who were kicked out of every agency in L.A. I have a feeling childcare ended up getting dumped on people with other job descriptions, like assistant or housekeeper.

Sad but true said...

Yeah, it was Andrea. Not just a babysitter---full-time, or so it seemed. And possibly live-in?

I have to ask.I was looking at TLC's twitter page and notice how they're promoting the show a little more then last week but do they buy followers?Because they have over 658k followers and yet none of their tweets really get any large feeback.Hell even Kate's tweets get way more likes then that and she has less followers.

So we've seen the 12th birthday AND the puppies--with very little fanfare--no trip to the breeder, even by Kate, just poof! they're here.

It might have been better if they had drawn it out a little. Who was it that wondered if Katie Irene had sold the crooked houses? There was a quick shot of those also. And is it my imagination or is TLC doing more complete shots of the McMansion as if to highlight their 1% lifestyle?

How hilarious that that fan thinks TFW eats only organic, is on a budget, and does her own shopping.

Layla said...

jamezvader1194 (11)

She has thought of having a fan party? Wow, she will do anything to keep herself on TV, won't she? Inviting strangers to come and gawk at the kids on their birthday is just revolting. She must see those kids as nothing more than a means to an end--filming. She does not care how miserable they are or what damage is done to them as long as she is being filmed.

Happy to say I did not watch.

Omg next week is berserk! See you next Tuesday at 10/9c on @TLC ... #KatePlus8

And that's a wrap. Clearly, these tweet parties are not like those of yore. Not including Kate's tweets, there were well under 300, about a quarter of which were from Khaters and people remarking on Collin's absence. Kate tweeted nearly 40 times. Milo? Probably the same. Actually since Doofus is included the under 300 number, we're probably looking at about 35-40% of all tweets were from Doofus or naysayers. And again, not a lot of new tweeters either, there's 8-10 regulars who tweeted upwards of 3 times apiece. Gone are the days when the tweets were in the 800+ range for a single show.

Kate Gosselin ‏@Kateplusmy8 10m10 minutes ago

We really have no idea when this was filmed, but assuming it was close to the actual b'day, then he's been gone a lot longer than people were led to believe.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said... 2

One of the babies was having eye surgery. I'm pretty sure they didn't have the other kids around, but I saw a clip of them prepping the girl for surgery. It must have been parents and hospital that got the bulk of the filming during those 12 hours.

What unmitigated assholes they are. And how cold to say "it also hurt the mommas heart". How about speaking in the first person and say something like "as his mom it hurt my heart". I guess the old show business adage "the show must go on" is true in Gosselinland. She really does not care about that poor child at all.

In other news, there were only about 350 tweets from when she started tweeting until now which was a 3 1/2 hour timespan.

A part of her is, absolutely. Mainly I think because of the disruption. He threatens her master plan, a big part of which is filming. It's "easier" to not have him around.

DAMN HER! What a damn, cruel bitch. She was contracted to do the birthday party. Why not film the party, but on the exact birthday go and take the kids, with presents, cake and go see Collin and show him your support and love and encourage him.

Just unbelievable that she has cut that child out of her like a cancer. Because you don't want cancer to come back.

GollyGee said...

Did you see her roll her eyes and make a stupid face when the guy that had the hot dogs asked the girls if the boys were going to win?

She did not want the boys to win! Even Mady, on the couch, said that the boys were the smartest kids in the house!

Does anyone think that she drove close enough hoping that one of the girls would see the clown and the balloons?

I do.

I just hate it so bad that Collin could of been there to celebrate with his brothers and friends.

I didn't want to say it! But because you did! Canceling a date to go be with the boys is a huge red flag. Making your date wait around while you primp and get all pretty is a huge red flag. Dumping your family on her on your very first date is a huge red flag. Was he just trying to be sure they approved before he moves forward trying to have a heterosexual relationship? If this were a girlfriend of mine I would say honey he's just not that into you or he's gay. She's going to end up heartbroken and mortified with five kids age 10. There is nothing cute about their story and it's sad to see her laugh off such glaring red flags.

They've truly just moved on with life without him, done.
*******
Kate can give it lip-service, but I think most anyone, especially moms, will not get how all the FUN!! and CHAOS!! can go on with cameras no less, knowing that Colin is squirrel away...somewhere.
Yes, the kids probably would have been served best if they were allowed to all gather around Colin, PRIVATELY, and have a low-key celebration. THAT they would have all remembered,not this same old shit where Kate creates drama and resumes her role as circus leader.
People have her number.
The only reason Kate didn't sing each kids' name is because it would have further driven home the fact that this filming and celebrating without Colin is heartless.
I am sure Kate did not HAVE TO produce a tup b-day for this 'season'. But, of course, she did, because she's tone deaf and will ignore the world burning down around her, as long as the cameras are rolling.
Lalalalalalala. What? Jon's gone?
Lalalalalalala. What? Colin's gone?
Lalalalalalalala....

njay said...

Admin. can children who have been removed from the home and fostered out by cps allowed to contact family? If not then IMO 99.9 percent do I believe he was removed. That makes more sense as to why Jon can't find out where he is, can't come home or have the party where he is at, why she basically didn't have a say in him leaving, why she seems almost giddy about him being gone and that the chickens are gone too, goodness, none of the kids even slipped in front of the camera about missing him. It's just not normal to be so non emotional about someone you love and share the same birthday as you. I could understand it more if it was more likely that you didn't expect them back. It's like Kate said during the rv trip, "they leave and ya move on." Seem's like that is what they have done. I don't think for one minute that tlc would edit any comments the kids would make. That would be gold ratings right there. IDK, Those kids have to be so messed up to not even say anything or show emotion about him not celebrating with them. Man KATE...YOU ARE SATAN INCARNATE!!!

I' guessing Mrs. Busby was young, inexperienced and immature. That kind of bravado, acting like an ass, and yanking around hooks insecure young women.
I'm betting he was her first real relationship.
From the sounds of it, this marriage will be headline news in a few years.
They're both immature and hit with fame and a lot of money.
It will change them, I have no doubt.

I think the main thing is that the parent makes it happen and then steps back and allows the kids to enjoy themselves as if she's not even there. It's the constant need to insert herself into the action that makes the kids seem "mommied" when they are 12 freaking years old!
Kate has to stop being the puppet master and gathering the children around her like they're 6-year olds.

No, it didn't you psycho. The kids do not need an episode to be filmed each and every birthday. WTH?
The right thing to do would have been to let them invite friends over for a party and enjoy themselves without cameras and you flapping your hands all over the place.
Every birthday doesn't have to be some over-the-top, uber-scheduled, frenetic shit fest meant to elicit the maximum amount of drama as possible.

Well, twitter person, first, you have Amish neighbors who give you free food. Then, you grift for gift cards to Giant.
The real key is knowing what to pay the extra $$ for, and what to skip, when it comes to "organic".
I'd like Kate to elucidate what she thinks organic is. That would be interesting.

@Kateplusmy8 @TLC So sorry about Collin....but understand. Will he get to see this?

Will Collin get to see the video of the best birthday party that did not include him?? Oh yes, Gladys, what a great idea. I'm sure it will make him feel so much better. What a sick woman and TFW said it was the best birthday ever. She is really a cold hearted witch.

One question for anyone who manage to watch the whole episode, what was the cash box?

I think the couch interviews (where someone said Hannah was wearing a cast) are often much later than events. They might have filmed the b'day around the actual date (or before) and the interviews came later.

It's because the girls grew up watching Kate hold a hammer over Jon's head and beat him with it on a daily basis.
They take after Kate. Not hard to connect the dots there.
The girls are favored over the boys and rule the roost.

The preview for next week's episode showed Collin in it. I wonder why they're airing these episodes out of sequence.

-ajw

Next week is the New Orleans trip, which I believe was filmed in March during their spring break.

Collin will also be shown in the episode where they have that family game night(according to the preview clip).

I, too, wonder why they show them out of order. It's going to be quite confusing for fans of the show. Collin's there, then he's gone, then he's back, then he's gone again...

Leslie said...

I think it was drone footage and my guess would be they did it simply because of the huge snowstorm. I don't think they did it to purposely showoff the huge lifestyle.

I thought the party was a disgusting idea to film. She should have had a small party for the other kids at home and with no filming. Then on their actual birthday or the weekend of she should have had Collin home or gone to visit him for HIS birthday. And it is unbelievable she tweeted best birthday ever when was of the birthday boys was away from home.

And if she did visit Colin on his birthday or if he did come home for it she should have mentioned it on air. So we have to assume she did not.

GollyGee said...

What unmitigated assholes they are. And how cold to say "it also hurt the mommas heart". How about speaking in the first person and say something like "as his mom it hurt my heart".

******************

When she says things like this, hurts the momma's hearts, this is how detached she is from these kids, especially Collin. She did the ultimate detachment. She basically got rid of Collin because he was interfering with the production of Kate Plus 8.

I was holding my breath when they were about to sing Happy Birthday because of the individual HB to each kid and then she said, instead of each one, they would just sing it once the kid say their name? Is that what happened?

She is cruel, crazy and evil. That poor Collin and his brothers and sisters. You can tell that Joel and Aaden miss Collin.

And it looked like central casting brought in an understudy for Collin so people would think he was there and then she talked about him not being there.

The insanity, chaos, is in her mind, like a bull in a china shop. She is not wired right.

Sad but true said...

OMG, what a comment from IG!

jha3258oKate, I've watched the birthday specials in the past. I'm confused. Didn't you have 3 boys and 3girls? Did one pass away? So sorry if so. That's sad. Well, atleast u have more so u wont be so lonely. Keep em close while u have em.ops, wrong pic.

"At least you have more so you won't be lonely"??? Some of these people are as crazy as K8 is.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

About the broken leg comment...yes, I realize Gladys meant re-setting a broken leg is painful, like this is. But, no. She can spin like a whirling dervish about baby steps and progress, but she doesn't know a blessed thing about C's current condition. Which, of course, is good, because it's nobody's business.

Nicky said...

No emotion from her is chilling. I didn't watch the whole thing, and I saw a snippet on us weekly about her explaining about C. Not a sad look, not a crack in her voice when speaking about him. The only time she has shown any emotion (other than anger), was during the divorce. Looks like that was more about losing the show than Jon. She even seemed to smirk at the end when speaking about C.

FYI said...

I hope this is true, but we've heard stuff like this before.

http://www.intouchweekly.com/posts/jon-gosselin-custody-kate-gosselin-119972

"In Touch has exclusively learned that Jon Gosselin is asking a judge for joint custody of twins of twins Cara and Mady, 16, and sextuplets Aaden, Alexis, Collin, Hannah, Joel and Leah, 12.

Jon currently has visitation, while Kate has full custody. He’s also demanding to know where the Kate Plus 8 star sent their special-needs son, Collin, whom Jon says he hasn’t seen in more than 18 months.

“So there will be a trial as soon as possible. The judge ordered it,” the source exclusively revealed. “Jon’s been waiting for this for a very long time.”

"The judge is ordering psychological evaluations of all eight kids and for both Kate and Jon before heading to trial,” the source continued. “Jon hopes the judge will meet with all the kids privately in his chambers, without Kate, to find out [the truth] and what they really want.”

GollyGee said...

*************************
Ha- is Milo toying with her? ONE more puppy? as in "just one more"? too bad Jon didn't get kate fixed.

**************

Made me laugh too! Wouldn't it of been huge when TFW was trying to convince Jon to have just one more when he was happy with Mady and Cara and had gotten a vasectomy without her knowledge?

But, there would not be a Alexis, Aaden, Collin, Leah, Hannah, Joel.

Could you see the look on her face when she couldn't get pregnant, even after she overstimulated her ovaries to make dang sure she got pregnant with several babies, that Jon had gotten a vasectomy?

Tucker's Mom said...

It's just not normal to be so non emotional about someone you love and share the same birthday as you.

I think Kate would do just about anything to avoid a psych evaluation. I would tell the judge just to watch a few episodes of the show, that should give him a good feel for all the chaotic fun that goes on there.

This might very well be why these kids stopped going to Jon's. They'd have to bring their meds, and it wouldn't take Jon long (living with a nurse) to figure out exactly what those meds are for and what the side effects are.

I caught the last 3 to 5 minutes of "The Kate Show". I noticed Kate said, "It was my favoritest" in regards to it being the best birthday party. That is not even a freaking word. Then a few of the other kids at other times made mention it was their best party too. I forgive the kids because I think they were referencing the fun they had but their 41 year Mother should have known better. Shame on her. And no doubt that was filmed very close to the end of May. So Colin was in sent away by then. I just hope Colin saw his family on his birthday on at least the weekend of. I really wish the best for him.

Oh, and I was raised in New Orleans. And they previewed at clip at Morning Call. It is where they serve beignets and the best coffee. Kate told the kids they were these frenchee donut things or something more stupid than that. Beignets are well known as being a New Orleans hallmark. Morning Call is a very famous landmark. Her kids are enrolled in a high level school. So you would think that Kate could at least describe the donuts in their proper term. She grates me with that stupid language of hers.I hope her kids do not pick that up because they will be looked down for it later in life. It speaks laziness.

Sad but true said...

Well, IG followers hit 100K. But the far-less-than 5,000 likes on every recent photo suggest otherwise.

Leslie said...

Great point about the kids bringing their meds to Jons. I think Alexis is the only one probably on it besides Colin. And what do you know, she is one that doesn't visit Jon like the other four do on a regular basis.

I noticed Alexis was yawning and literally laying down on the couch last week. And she was also shown again this week practically laying down again on the couch. No doubt she is medicated. But if she needs it so be it. It just seems if you can't sit on a couch though with a camera in your face without yawning and laying down something is wrong. Either you are over medicated or the interview process is too long and boring for her.

GollyGee said...

In Touch has exclusively learned that after spending part of Thanksgiving weekend in Turks & Caicos, Brad Pitt returned home on Saturday to spend time with his kids — only to have Angelina Jolie cancel their visit at the very last minute.

"Brad came back from Turks & Caicos on Saturday because Angie's team had assured him that he would see the kids,” a source said.

“He got back late Saturday afternoon and called to arrange the drop-off. He was told there would be no visit because Angie had changed her mind," the source continued. "Brad was very angry and disappointed. [He] wanted to have a belated gathering at his house on the Saturday of Thanksgiving weekend."

locaylyocul said...

So the judge supposedly ordered a trial? Jon must have requested that. My ex did that when he tried to rip away custody from me (not that I don't approve of Jon doing so) but I really really want to go see that trial LOL.

This sounds more hopeful as it sounds like actions have been taken, a trial has been ordered, and based on Jons tweet that all is well.

Kris (#105), and wouldn't it be especially nice for TFW to encourage her daughters not to have horrible thoughts about their own BROTHERS? So much for her drivel about family being more important than ever. She just says what she thinks sounds right -- it never scans with her actual behavior.

Thankfully C didn't have to be involved in that nonsense. Was it a birthday party, or Battle Of The Network Stars?

Huh. Exactly how I said we would handle this here. This sounds credible. It's what I would ask for. Yes psyche on the kids and Jon too. Only thing I would say is I'm not sure talking to the judge is all that helpful when kids are being coached and alienated. A better course I think is to provide them a child's attorney who can really spend time getting to know them and the situation. Also a therapist who has experience with alienation would be excellent. But this is positive nonetheless.

The boys were tickled they won (they really seem super sweet) and Mady (who was 'at the finish line' to greet the winning team) seemed genuinely happy for them. Leah said (on the couch) 'They cheated. If we had Andrea, we would have won.' Implying Andrea gave them the answers. Although Mady had pointed out early the girls had an advantage because Kate knew where everything was so she could get them there faster. The boys did get a 10 min. head start but that was because they were down 1 child :(

Even her delivery is so incredibly stilted that I wonder how many takes she had to do to seem somewhat human.
The very sad reality of Colin is that Kate is still in charge and can control the narrative with no questions and no obligation to be truthful. She has thus far had zero challenge to her bullshit story, if you can even call it that.
And I think she is hiding the truth, big time.

I don't know if this is the same girl who lost her temper in a split second and shoved the shit out of her brother after the Gaga Ball game?

When TFW was talking about Collin not being there there was absolutely no emotion on her face or in her eyes. She still had those dead shark eyes. I guess she could blame the lack of expression on the Botox but then she'd have to admit she doesn't de-age. The dead eyes? There's nothing she can do about that because they really are the windows to the soul (or lack thereof). She didn't even attempt to dab and poke.

*******************

I have thought this for so long! If the judge were to order that, it might be a good idea for Steve to whisk TFW off somewhere far, far away so he could move in, in peace.

She's got plenty of money. She can get her a condo in a high rent district or move in with Steve in that love nest apt. they were checking out in Maryland, IIRC.

I am telling you, if she won the billion dollar lottery, she would still want to film those kids for that check.

Because there is never enough money. She would spend millions of dollars to fight Jon for custody.

Cara looks like to me that she can't wait to graduate HS and go far away to college and never look back. I hope her and Jon are doing better. So proud of the twins being nice to the boys when they won.

Aaden and Collin were so sweet and the neat thing was, they were humble. They didn't boast. WOW, that is something what Leah said. If they had Andrea, they would have won and accused the boys of cheating.

I hope TFW is proud of herself. Her influences over the years of her anti-man, anti-boy propaganda has really poisoned the 3 tup girls against their brothers. For one of the boys to ACCIDENTALLY brush against one's arm, and her to turn on him like that?

Wait till she starts dating and she does that. Unless he is a gentleman and walks away, she will wind up in the ER or worse.

And it is ALL ON THEIR MOTHER'S MENTALLY ILL HEALTH!

@GollyGee I've said this before but apart from Kate im also concerned about the mental health of some of TFW's fans.If Jon does get full custody,how would Milo react to it?Will she demand to see the judge who granted it?Will the fans try everything they can to convince people that Jon is not stable to be a father?Its mostly Milo and i guess C.J i'd be the most concerned with.

Milo should go along with Kate and get a psych evaluation. Maybe they could get a two-for-one deal.

This now seems to be a pervasive opinion over on the TLC K8 FB page. Sounds like Kate's got more 'splainin' to do, as what she has said up to now hasn't convinced even her biggest fans. Who's up for another "set the record straight" tour?

XXXXXX I'm just going to say I love Kate Plus 8 and have respect for Kate. Since I don't know the whole story I choose to believe her explanation of things, until it is proven otherwise. I think she's always done her best despite being imperfect. That being said, I can respect that she sent Collin away to get treatment but my issue is why would she do the show without him? Have this party without him? Sure this could of been filmed on a different day and they could have spent their actual birthday with him for all we know. However doing the show without him is sad. If he truly has behavioral problems or a chemical imbalance or whatever it is, I doubt him looking back on his siblings happily celebrating their birthday on TV without him will be good for his mental health. That's what really bothers me!

If Jon is granted full custody from TFW, I am really concerned that she will go off the deep end. The "If I can't have them, You can't have them".

---

Is he seeking full custody? According to the article, he is asking for joint custody, so why would he be granted full custody?

Henny penny said...

The judge can't 'order' anything about the house. All marital assets were divided when they divorced. Once the papers were signed the property award cant be re-addressed. The house is in her name -it is a non-issue.
I hope the news is correct, that the custody issues is being brought back to court again.

Vanessa said...

Didn't watch last night's sequel to the "Jon is Dead" episodes..."Where is Colin?"
But I did watch last week's
Some things that stood out

*when she's up with the TWO boys making lunches and she's "trying" to be fun and sweet with Aaden, he's looking at her like she's an alien. Very awkward for him
*when she's drilling Joel about him wanting to succeed, how BADLY DO YOU WANT TO SUCCEED??! why? why do this? and why only him??
*when she's blabbering on about 10 years ago compared to today,she lovingly reminisces about them as "little"
blah blah...and then goes into detail about their personalities today...when it's Colin's turn she says (paraphrasing) "he was so easy, such an easy baby, today there is nothing easy about Colin"
And that was IT! NOTHING ELSE!
*her complexion is awful. she has that "tan mask" dark blotches, and acne.
*yes, dead eyes
*not as cocky as she's been, you can smell the desperation

Big, big mistake filming a birthday bash without Collin. How unfeeling and oblivious because a NORMAL mother would not want her child to feel left out and abandoned. She does need a psych eval. Bravo, Jon.

Over and Out - I agree, it looked to me like he is only seeking joint custody so I don't see where the speculation on his moving in to the house /full custody is coming from.

I really can't believe that she'd do anything to harm the kids and that kind of speculation is really out there but there are some that will pick up on it and run with it as gospel. Some things are better left unsaid and I hope you don't take offense to my voicing my opinion.

TLC stinks said...

LOL, we sure have Kate's number. Of course that mannequin challenge was a diversion and it was obvious even without the Hollywood Life article. What a shrew!!!! And she dared to accuse Jon of ruining THEIR Thanksgiving. As usual, he did not have all the kids and it sounds like neither parent visited Collin. WTH!

Layla said...

Ratings in--860,000. I thought last night was her best chance to break a million, but that did 't happen. Good.

GollyGee said...

Sorry, I meant joint custody, not full custody.

My fault!

NJGal51 said...

We did call it that she only had some of the kids for dessert on Thanksgiving.

Layla said...

LPBW held pretty steady with 1.604 million. Outdaughtered went up a bit, to 1.107 million. Almost a quarter of a million viewers tuned out when K+8 came on. Last week was 890,000, and that was a looking back episode. Those usually get lower ratings. But I really thought there would be more people watching the tups birthday. The die-hard fans who watched from the beginning would want to watch that. But they didn't. 30,000 fewer people watched.

From some comments, there are fans who won't watch due to the Collin situation. Next week's ratings will tell us if that is true.

Standing ovation for someone who can be a fan but see how selfish Kate is.
However, the answer seems elusive to her, ultimately. The answer, kind person, is MONEY.
How can Kate film without Colin, let alone the "best ever" birthday party-HIS birthday party-without him? Because she will do anything, say anything, FORSAKE anything, for her reality tv show.

Turn out the lights... said...

IF the custody issue heads back to court (and I hope it does, for the kid's sake), Kate is ON HER OWN this time!
I don't think TLC is going to be hiring attys or holding her hand in this battle.
They got the most of what they are gonna get out of the G kids. They don't care.
It's over, they've moved on to the Outdaughtered family. Time to ruin another family.
NEXT!

If it really bothers you, why are you siding with Kate, who is a pathological liar, child abuser and pet abuser?

A normally, mentally well mother would arrange to take the child's siblings to where ever he is and have a private party, no cameras and not film a birthday party and broadcast it on TLC for the world to see without him.

When TFW said that they were not going to do individual HB's this year, because they were out of time, was replusive and a total lie. She rubbed salt in Collin's wound that he was not there! So cruel.

The child in question is helpless against her. She is too strong for him. Team Collin, 100 percent!

So crazy that TFW would say they were out of time. The only person who is out of time is her. Her time of abusing the kids and animals is just about up. I love it when she makes declarations!

According to the link I just posted they had a court date the day before thanksgiving and judge ordered Jon got to have kids for dinner. So that mannequin challenge was to make it look like she had all the kids

I'm overjoyed for Jon that he got 4 of his children to celebrate Thanksgiving, even if just for a few precious hours.
If Kate really did tell Jon that he was ruining Thanksgiving, all I can say is that she'd better get used to it. She should have been sharing those kids on birthdays and holidays for 5 years now.
Her stranglehold on custody needs to be done.
It's time for the "realest reality" to set in.

Anonymous said...

860,000 rating does not bode well for her. I have to wonder if TLC were aware of the pending court action and that is why they held back on promoting the show as they usually do. Even so they were definitely wrong in filming the birthday special without Collin; I don't see how anyone can excuse that insensitive programming.

How do you like the spring weather, Tucker's? The rain, not so much, but we need it, even though we have to postpone the Christmas tree shopping!

OMG, I just turned the A/C on for a few minutes!
We really do need rain, but I wish it would have held off a couple more days. We're getting our front walk/steps redone this week and they were only able to work on Monday, pulling out the old brick and concrete and pouring new concrete.
That's been sitting under a blanket and hopefully, tomorrow they can return and continue the job.
We do artificial trees currently, and I'm actually awaiting my trusty UPS man- he's going to deliver a nice slim tree for our downstairs.

Not so long ago, Christy Brinkley's ugly divorce and custody battle was very public. Her ex was diagnosed with narcissism, and he still gets partial custody (or visitation, not sure).
I think it's a very good thing when any mental diagnosis is revealed so everyone can work together the best they can.

I have a different view on this.
I think it would be very upsetting for the kids to order Kate out of the house, and even worse for Jon to live in that compound again.
Everyone needs to move forward.
I disagreed with Jon and Kate splitting time there because I thought it was ultimately unhealthy for everyone.
Kids or not, a divorced couple needs to divest of their ex on every level possible, and set up their own life and home, completely separate of each other.

jamezvader1194 said...

@Layla Well thank God my prediction was 100% wrong.I felt people would tune it just to see how the kids grown but from the whole Collin issue she seems to have shot herself in the foot filming and airing this episode without him.I've seen someone here show comments on both twitter and facebook where people are showing their disgust with Kate celebrating and airing this without Collin.I really hope most of the usual fans are finally opening their eyes to Kate now.

I'm very encouraged that TLC will stop filming this family.

If Jon is finally making headway, I'm sure TLC is acutely aware of the implications.

Sad but true said...

Haha, the ratings! Karma is almost complete. Even worse for TLC? Leah Remini's special on Scientology over on A&E was the 4th-ranked cable show of the night (it was on at 10 p.m.) with 2.118mm viewers (Kate was 42nd). They had Leah on for one season and, as I recall, she got decent ratings. Why she isn't back, I don't know, but this is the sort of show TLC/Discovery could EASILY have put together. And didn't.

I will be very curious to see what they're going to say to shareholders as their network heads down the tubes. Of course, they've got Discovery to prop them up, but if this doesn't get some people "re-assigned," I'll be surprised.

Expect K8 to start asking people to wear signs in Walmart parking lots. :)

If I were Jon, I wouldn't let anything valuable that her gave to his kids enter into Kate's house. She doesn't know how to take care of things.

I don't see Jon buying the boys a laptop. Only because he knows Kate will most likely confiscate it. She won't allow them to use it I'm sure. She will punish those boys just to spite Jon.

Jon cant be awarded the house--Kate got the house in the divorce settlement.
As far as some being sad Colin wasnt home for the holiday, I think the opposite-- he's not being brow beat, yelled at, etc.
hopefully wherever he is, he's treated with kindness. If indeed he reported the abuse himself, it's best for him to not return to her custody.
My wish is Jon gets custody of Colin-

@Kateplusmy8 @TLC Must of needed more money for your lifestyle. Here's a thought. You shouldn't have televised a show at all.

^^^
It seems like Kate has upset real "Tiger Moms". Finally, Kate seems to have crossed a bridge too far for any and every mother that really would go to the ends of the Earth for their child.

People swallowed the news that Colin was sent away, and that disgusting People cover and spread, but celebrating the 'best party ever' with Colin's brothers and sisters, without him being as much as a tear welling up in her eye, is just too much.
It's inhuman to keep the cameras rolling at this time, especially a SUPER FUN!!!!! birthday episode made just for the cameras.

Yes, Kate is that awful. Glad people are finally getting it.

Sad but true said...

Wow, I thought a lot of the comments on the K8 FB page were bad. You want to see some disgusted people, check out TLC's own FB page. They put up two posts about last night's show, and I would say 95% are negative. No one's pulling punches over there. And about time, too.

Turn out the lights... said...

IIRC, Kate doesn't allow any items Jon purchased into her home (I believe it all has to stay at his house). That's been some time ago, but I remember him saying that.
I hope that he had a good time with 'the usual' on Thanksgiving.
It's a shame she can't love her kids more than she hates him, she could have invited him over for the holiday. Some people are just so vindictive.
I have a feeling 2017 is going to be her year of comeuppance.

Just getting an actual psych eval on Kate & the kids would be an enormous first step in moving forward.

Me too. I think he's been gone 6 months or so? It's time he come home to a loving parent who will focus on his needs above all else.

Layla said...

I hope the news about Jon taking Kate to court is true. She must be having fits right now. She'll have to submit to a psych evaluation, she may have to let someone talk to the kids outside of her presence (and influence), and she will probably have to spend her own money on legal fees. I doubt that TLC is going to pay for her. Ratings are crappy, TLC is practically ignoring her show, and it's unlikely they will film anything while the court situation gets resolved. In fact, TLC may be done with her no mater what happens in court. Her days of filming the kids are numbered anyway. Collin is gone, the twins start college in a couple years. If Jon wins any parental rights at all, he could halt filming for good.

Just desserts, I say.

Sad but true said...

Don't you wonder what the atmosphere is like in that house right now, if these psych evaluations are indeed pending? Can't you see her drilling it into their heads, "You LOVE filming! You LOVE filming!" It's kind of unfair that she gets so much advance warning.

C'mon, K8, give us some puppy pics so we know you're not waterboarding the kids.

A LOT of comments on FB are upset that Colin couldn't be at the party. It's really the elephant in the room that Kate and TlC are avoiding like the plague.
Where exactly is Collin that he can't come home and visit? He's been gone for a LONG time. Can you imagine not being able to come home for months and months? Not be able to see your brothers and sisters?
Wherever he is sounds more like prison.
