You know what really chaps my taint? This John and Kate Plus 8 show about parents with 8 half-nipsy kids under the are of 6. They have a set of twins and also septuplets. First of all they had the audacity to call the birth of septuplets a miracle. That ain't a miracle, that's a friggin' science experiment. That's like some juice head claiming it's a miracle that he can bench 400lbs. No, it's just science and medicines doing exactly what you paid to have them do. So these parents get approached to do a couple of one hour shows to show how they manage their lives, like they are the only people in the world to have more than three kids. My dad is one of 9 kids, but my grandfather had the class to do it the old fashioned way. He kept my grandmother knocked up or nursing a kid for about 20 straight years. This lad Kate gets off easy, she go bang out the 6 kids in nine months. If you gave my grandmother that choice I bet she takes the 'one and done' pregnancy as well.
Now TLC offers them a full season contract and the parents sign on. In my opinion they may as well have sent these 8 kids back to their mother land and sold them to a sweat shop owner who could use their tiny hands to assemble anal beads and sew intricate dream catchers for Camero rear view mirrors. Talk about exploitation. Not these kids have camera crews following them around all day every day as they go on any vacation or to any attraction that their media whore parents can squeeze some endorsement cash out of. And to top it all off Kate is a bitch. She treats her husband like he's on of the tow year olds. If this guy went AWOL one day and chopped her ass up and stuck her in a freezer it wouldn't surprise me in the least. It would actually make for a great season finale. I can assure you this little experiment of a show will not end well. My only solace is knowing that about 16 years from now I will get to watch the first ever Korean-American septuplets episode of Intervention. NOw that show is quality TV.
