I never watched the show and there is no reality show to date that will have me attached to it.

These two horrible parents should be ashamed of themselves for selling out their own kids for some cash and a little fame. They are despicable people. All I can say is

[Crowrocker71]

Jon and Kate are PC imbeciles

This show is reprehensible, preverted, and unethical. This families welfare is being affected by all this media coverage.

And the sick perversion people get because of this families hardships is disgusting.

If you think this is bad, just wait for "Ben and Jen Plus Ten."

REALITY SHOW are not REALITY! They are still EDITED for crying out loud and probably SCRIPTED to some extend from a FAKE DRAMA SHOW!

BTW, KATE have one of those LESBIAN HAIRSTYLE! I hoped Jon DUMP her for a more GIRLY East Asian American Woman instead! Jon could have done better!
