Jon and Kate, plus 8 and two more?

[RICHARD]

Well, It may work out for Jon after all....

If he decides to date he won't have to worry about getting anyone preggers.
Kate has his bits!

Well, It may work out for Jon after all....

I was amazed to see that they pull in 25-50k per episode!

I wonder if that includes the freebies that they get- the promotional considerations, trips and services!


Dude.

Even if they make JUST 25k per episode it works out to a million bucks for the season.

Even a million can't be enough to get the kids to high school.

I would love to see the numbers on what companies, services and other stuff the family has been given.

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

I would like to know what the dynamics are with the BIL and SIL that gave the interviews to the media. I can imagine that there was a little jealousy/animosity about money being generated. I barely found out what Jon did for a living and thought two things.


It's not enough money to raise a huge family-maybe if the kids were spread out a little more.

And

J's job was his 'vacation' from the family.


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

Did anyone see the special where they gave the G's new home a 'green' makeover? One of the guys that did the "This Old House" program on PBS came in to overhaul the house to make it more energy efficient.

K was a real biatch during the program- Steve Thomas, the DIY guru was his dopey self and was trying to explain what he was doing for the family. She would constantly make snide remarks and put the poor dude down. Thomas can be a 'tool' at times and I am not a huge fan of his, but I wanted him to belt her across the head with a plastic pipe.

The only thing she was worried about was her dopey self and how the workers were cramping her life.

Excuse me?

She works around a camera crew and the others that are shooting the show and she has problems with people working on the outside of the house?

Please!

I saw that one and agree with you, although toward the end I think she struck up a rapport with Steve. As I recall the episode ended with them hugging each other "goodbye." I was thinking that he was probably glad he was going home to HIS wife.....that is, if he is even married.

I just read on abcnews.com today that the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry is checking to see if they may have violated some child labor laws. The story did not elaborate much on it though.

I just heard that on the Philly news too. You know what's so strange here - none of this would have come to light and nobody would have said or done anything if the parents hadn't called attention to themselves. Now why, all of a sudden, are people starting to worry about the kids? Why wasn't anyone concerned before??? - they've been on t.v. for how many years now??? It's not like it was hidden or any big secret.
Just more bureaucratic b.s.!

Apparently the family got in the act, in-laws, I believe, saying that the kids were being damaged in some way. Really? Where were you all along? Trying to get your 15 minutes of fame, are ya?
