This is a little side excursion, but I used to catch a few of the wife swap shows on ABC and they were pretty predictable with the typical hillbilly wife swapped with a Manhattan socialite and the fish out or water tale. Well now the kid in the balloon story spilled all over all the networks news and it turns out the father was on WS twice and from the clips they showed he was so melodramatic you could tell he was really acting. I'm betting he turns out to have staged this whole publicity stunt with the kid hiding in a box in the attic and his older brothers claim he was in the saucer shaped balloon. When asked if the kid would be "grounded" the dad says they didn't believe in that and he would talk to the boy.

Kate plays the victim to me, and I say if you bitch bitch bitch constantly (honestly they show the old episodes on TLC and just the other day they showed one while they were talking on the discussion part on the couch, she nagged him because he was "breathing too loud" and then made fun of him.) and you drive him away... I wondered what took him so long.

He married young and had 8 kids fast, I get his wanting to be a frat boy type, but he is a father, and while he convinces himself that his kids are too young to see him acting boorish, it will catch up with him. He seems especially close to the twin Cara and it would be too bad. He seems like a good Dad, just married too young, fame too fast and under the control of a controlling woman too long...and... ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (Miss Neko) http://realitytvtalk.com/sreply/258608 Fri, 16 Oct 2009 21:13:56 PST http://realitytvtalk.com/reply/258605/t/John-and-Kate-.html#reply-258605 Miss Neko wrote:

I totally agree with you DJNT. I am a mother, and wife, and sometimes a nag, but she was brutal. I totally get why he may have gone a little wild after the split, but he is starting to look a little foolish. He is getting really bad press because he's not savvy enough. I loved him on the show, he was funny and just put up with it. He should step back.. the kids seem to adore him. She, I cannot stand.

I am glad I am not married to him, but I think she is getting too good of an edit in the media compared to him. Miss Neko, I'm glad you're with me on this...I thought only men would feel this way about Kate

I mean, I don't exactly think that Jon is an angel, either, but I think that Jon is only searching for someone who would respect and pay attention to him.

My observations after watching a few episodes of Jon and Kate is that Kate IS a control freak, a nightmare for most men! She's Ms. Diva, DA BOSS, what-have-you. She's very lucky that Jon actually put up with her all these years! I used to think that Jon was just another male chauvinistic pig who likes to have multiple female partners and love to party, but I can now see WHY Jon is the way he is!

Any man would leave the house as much as possible just to get away from Kate!!!

Control freak seems like a good description of Kate... also screeching witch when she talked to Jon

Everybody has good & bad times, but in the time I saw here, there was nothing good ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (TigerJohn) http://realitytvtalk.com/sreply/258599 Fri, 16 Oct 2009 10:07:23 PST http://realitytvtalk.com/reply/258598/t/John-and-Kate-.html#reply-258598
Jon and Kate were this normal family, had trouble conceiving so had in vitro and had the first two twin daughters. The control freak mother wasn't satisfied and wanted "one more" but ended up with sextuplets and therefore the 6 to make the "plus 8" part. The mother (Kate) was constantly a nag, the father Jon just seemed to be easy going and dealt with it, but since the split, he's kind of making a fool of himself and she's playing the media, the kids who are now like 6 and 9 just got lost in the story.

The show was very cute when the 6 were babies and the couple got along. they lived in a normal house, had normal struggles with begging people to help handle 6 babies and just dealt, but then fame and riches struck, they moved to a big house, except for the normal plastic surgery to help with the stomach from having 8 babies (by Jon's new... ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (Miss Neko) http://realitytvtalk.com/sreply/258598 Fri, 16 Oct 2009 09:59:14 PST http://realitytvtalk.com/topic/16813/t/John-and-Kate-.html feeds@kickapps.com (skeptik) http://realitytvtalk.com/topic/16813 Thu, 15 Oct 2009 21:22:38 PST
