What a long, strange trip it’s been: the New York Post reports that Jon & Kate Plus 8 will stop running new episodes in November. While TLC’s statement seems open-ended in regards to spin-offs for the five-season-running show, sources claim the network is holding off on any more Kate Plus 8 chat until the divorcing couple’s courtroom drama has subsided and Jon figures out just how much money he would need to let his kids back on the air.
Unless they can maneuver around his legal threats, the problem for TLC is that Jon’s far more interested in getting himself back on air than his kids. “[I'll] continue on television, JoGo told Entertainment Tonight. “I’m not worried about future employment.” Unless he starts getting better offers than Michael Lohan‘s Celebrity Boxing Tournament, he should be.

Jon is a total idiot. He is cutting off his nose to spite his face. He needs to get a job if he is pulling the plug on the kids on TV. He had better sell all of his expensive real estate and cars and get a room at the Y so that his kids can continue living in “their house”, and gong to quality schools. Even if Jon did all of that, they will probably still loose everything. If I hear him say the “it’s all about the kids” again, I think I will throw up. He is disgusting!!! Kate has class. I sre hope that she will land on her feet because she is the only hope for the kid’s future.
He’s such a jerkwad douche. So his kids can’t make money off tv, but he can? So he can spend it on himself and his hoes? Awesome. What a great dad.
OK seriously whats all the hype about people? Really couples break up everyday they just are not on television. It sucks for the kids yeah but thats life right? And who is this sitter saying that she and john had a relationship going on stephanie santora or something like that? Come on people really do you honestly think that if they had something going on she would care so much about Kate to snitch and say he was looking through her personal things. Um hello! they are married that what married people do..I think that yeah maybe she wanted john and when she got rejected she got angry and took it upon herself to set allegations against him to make him look bad, when in reality she is making herself look worse for admitting to having relations with a married man whom she babysat for. But of corse this is just my opinion..

Go Kate!!! The kids are not Jons main concern if they were he would of realised what the show was doing to him, kate and the kids and ended it along time a go. But instead he let the show ruin the lives of his beautiful well rounded wife and his very well behaved kids! hes selfish and dose not deserve Kate!! Kate is the only one keeping the kids together she has put her feelings and emotions aside to benifit the children. I still think she loves Jon very much and the pain that you see on her face during most of the shows really shows just how bad she needs a break to regroup with not only life but with the children. Jon just wants it to be about him all the time so he tourtures Kate in a way and its sad! Jon is a sorry excuse for a man! I think he could of handeled the situation much better than what he did!
Kate is an awesome mom as well as a person and any man would be lucky to have her as wife, mother to his children and a friend! so way to go Jon i hope you feel just great when you go to sleep at night!!!!!
everyone has something to say about john but what about kate. she did a lot of things to so she can be on tv. i’ma single mother 2 and love my kids just as much as both of them do, but she sign the papers just like he did to be on the show. if u looked at the show somtines she use to talk to him like he was a child to. every time he tried to do something she told him not to. she woul yell at him and bark orders. he was her husband and father to the kids not her slave
I think for the sake of the kids they both need to quit acting like divas and start acting like parents. If they really cared about the welfare of the children, they would drop out of sight and make sure that their kids are their number one priority. My grandparents once told me that money can buy you whatever you want but the most important thing it can not buy you is love. Love is all that matters when you want to keep your family together and keep yourself happy. Money can not do that.
KATE IS A TOTAL @~_&()%_!)(*#!!+$+ JON DESERVES MUCH BETTER… SO GOOD LUCK TO HIM AND THE KIDS
I never really liked the way Kate treated Jon in the first few seasons, I felt like she got her kicks off of belittling him. But ever since the break up he is an a–. Those poor kids is all I think of, he has no respect for his children and the life they will lead due to his greed!
jon is a loser.end of story
John is not in the wrong, Kate treated him way bad and tried to control him, probably did not put out either, she is the one that is wrong in this whole thing don’t blame him!
Hmmm It was NEVER the Kids show.. It was This crazy (_*+&+(*$_^_%$%+^) pimping her husband and her kids, the man even quit working he even stated on the show he loved going to work everyday it gives him a break, so she got everything she wanted. The show should come to a stop. Regardless of the adults time to think of the children for once.
There are tons of disfunctional families with multiple children in the house. Pretty soon that’s all we’ll see on TV. Everybody knows most of these reality shows are all fake anyways..why not pull them all off air .? It’s a bunch of fake people trying to make bank because they failed real blue-collar jobs and are depending on someone or something else to pay the bills for their huge homes and what not. Why use your children to get rich?
Well, I see a lot of posts about Jon being a jerk but no wonder he was driven astray…I mean if you watched the episodes just look how Kate treated him on worldwide TV. How embarressing for the poor guy! She seems a little dominate in my opinion. I know they both have their quirks and we all do (which I am glad I don’t put on TV for all to see). She is probably stressed and he wants to fix that. But she has become very mean in venting her stress. What a very sad outcome. That’s all I can say.
dead beat straight up dead beat.. i hate that guy… and he is soo ugly. idk why or what kate saw in him anyway…
How in the world did this guy find women who would go out with him in the first place?
He’s right up top of the list of UGLY !
If Jon had never been on reality TV not 1 woman would want the doughy playboy. His only attractive quality is infamey. Really who would want a divorced Father of eight who is more famous for his exploits than his parenting. Do real women find abandoning your children to party on boats in France attractive. Man up get over yourself and be a real dad not a reality dad. You both gave as good as you got in the relationship. However, Kate is emerging as the better parent and most of her statements are backed up by actions
u need to remember who god put togather let no one put ((#@(!~##$#$@&! under hold on to your marriage and stop playing the blame game.
O.M.G. GIRL I WISH THE BEST FOR U KATE JON IS A TOTTLE D.O.G DOG FIRST HE THOUGHT HE WAS ALL BAD WITH HIS LITTLE GIRL FIREND AND KNOW HE IS SAYING “OH I REELY LOVED KATE WHATEVER!!!!! DOG NEEDS TO BE PUT ON A LEASH GIVE THAT DOG A BONE …. GOOD LUCK KATE I HOPE U FIND A GOOD MAN ……
I think its about time. niether one of them are thinking about there children……Kate is OCD and Jon is way to laid back…all they want is the $$$$$, I see it in their eyes the kids are a excuse..If they were both thinking about the children they would have stopped filming until the divorce was final and dedicated all the time to the kids….People do not realize that divorce is hard on children can you Imagine 8. I am on team Gosselien Children(Idont think I spell the name right)I pray for this family that they become more civil and Jon stop acting like a teenager your not, I do have to admit that OCD Kate is stepping up to the plate though…
Please stop the insanity! Jon could’ve redeemed himself after the divorce by at least being there for his kids. Instead, he decides to date immature, 20 year old women and go clubbing. Meanwhile, his kids cry because of his lack of attentiveness to them. But Kate isn’t completely off the hook either. I mean, she belittles Jon for not using a coupon?! Doesn’t TLC pay her enough for publicity? I don’t know whose worse, these two, or the Heenes (the “balloon boy” couple).
I can I honestly say that I feel for Kate and the kids because she did what anyone would have done to maintain 8 kids she was offered an opportuniy of a lifetime and she took it but unfortunately they ended up in a divorce for some bad decision on Jon’s side. I pray to God everyday that Kate and the kids could be Happy again even if it means Jon getting back with them Amen!!!! Jon may God do his will in your life. We all make mistake I just hope you learned from them.
It’s such a shame…before all of the bs I WORSHIPPED this family. I watched them when I was pregnant with my son & was so proud that there was a modest, Christian family who for a long time were role models to many viewers. Then when the skeletons come out you start to reevalaute your thinking. i am worried about the kids. Yeah, they will be set for the rest of their lives, but honestly, is money worth more than morale? I hope when all of them are of age (or sooner) they can emancipate themselves from their crazy ((#`&@@#@_$~+)` parents who are nothing but a bunch of money hungry hippocrites. Thank goodness they are at an end! Good riddance! Kate you are a ^@++**_(+~_~#*$_! Jon you are just LAME!!!!
I think Kate was sometimes treating Jon like one of the kids telling him what to do and stuff and I think that it got to him but he shouldnt have done what he did I think it’s both thier faults but Kate is doing great with keeping her head up
jon is such a total idiot! hes making it kates fault when its really his fault! he cheated! he took the kids off tv! he is the fat son of a ….. ! hes to blame for! most are going against kate cuz of him! hes the one dating way younger girls! kates perfectly innocent! when it was the twins bithday he spelled mady’s name wrong on the cake! its mady! not maddy! what kind of idiot father does that! really?! oh wait jon does that! duh!
Jon’s going through midlife crisis. He’s going to regret all of this in a few years. It’ll be funny. Kate needs to find a man that will be ok with her having 8 children. I don’t think she’ll have a hard time for some reason.
I think it’s wrong for Jon to ask for money to have his kids put on the air. He is the one who wanted the divorce and now he’s puting Kate through hell. I don’t think he should get anything. How is Kate supposed to take care of these kids. They are so used to this lifestyle already. They’ve been in the lime light since they were babies now because he got a bug up his butt he wants to have all control… Typical man! But like I said I don’t think he should have say since he’s not really supporting the kids as much as Kate is!
