I watched it too (although it's no longer on my DVR- I don't like to watch things that make me sad!) and I was really rooting for them to cancel the show and work on their marriage...sad, so sad...amy pottengerhttp://www.refreshdesign.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1005745403446437717.post-2726411668827633302009-06-24T00:37:02.721-04:002009-06-24T00:37:02.721-04:00I'm thankful we don't have cable. I'v...I'm thankful we don't have cable. I've only heard about the family through random tidbits, but my general feeling is that this is just tragic. Shame on them. Network producers who didn't put the breaks on and to Jon and Kate for letting it get to this point. <br /><br />Seriously... what is the show going to continue to document? Court dates? Visitation arguments? Is Zondervan going to continue to promote the book? Churches pounding her door down for speaking engagements? Doesn't she see that her empire is going to come crashing down with the collapse of the marriage? I say give her 6 months and she's going to be a suicide risk. <br /><br />Those sweet babies. What a horrible way to enter into life.Jen K.http://www.jenkrollphotography.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1005745403446437717.post-54933903633663486622009-06-23T21:40:27.532-04:002009-06-23T21:40:27.532-04:00You go sister!

If Jon is so "angry", go to marriage counseling and work out what is causing the anger. I have a feeling Jon is angry because Kate is completely consumed by the fame and fortune. What a shame! Let this be a lesson to all of us, letting outside influences into our family lives is extremely destructive. Anger and selfishness can ruin relationships...and to watch it all on TV? Wow, those poor kids.Kara Scheenemannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1005745403446437717.post-11480300777541556032009-06-23T17:12:13.739-04:002009-06-23T17:12:13.739-04:00I didn't watch the show last night but I heard...I didn't watch the show last night but I heard on Today this morning that they are going to continue the show even after the divorce. They said that the kids are staying in the house and then Kate or Jon are going to rotate in to do the show, so just one of them will be there with the kids at a time! This is pathetic! Wasn't this show supposed to be about the whole family? I agree that they should have pulled the plug and worked on the marriage, it's really sad.Michelle@Memorable Eventshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03537444812612815848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1005745403446437717.post-26825803288506265542009-06-23T12:52:35.851-04:002009-06-23T12:52:35.851-04:00I completely agree.

They put almost $15,000 worth of playhouses in their backyard last night, and threw away a marriage. I say pull the plug. I don't know if my marriage could survive with cameras recording every disagreement, argument and mistake. But if it started to effect our family, I'd give it up immediately. If we don't watch the show or buy the books we can show TLC and Zondervan that what we loved about the show was the family. And since no one had the courage to stand up and say "this is ruining your marriage so we are not going to renew that contract", maybe we can express that America values the family by turning it off. The biggest victims are the kids. Those kids' lives just changed forever and we watched it on TV.HandbagsbyJenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15186014202172948141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1005745403446437717.post-71415267112196324292009-06-23T12:46:31.249-04:002009-06-23T12:46:31.249-04:00I wanted to vomit when Kate had the audacity to us...I wanted to vomit when Kate had the audacity to use the words "the show must go on." Seriously? SERIOUSLY?? Thanks for confirming it, Kate - you're in this for the show, also known as the fame. I hope she's saving up for all of the counseling those poor victimized children are going to need.Sarahnoreply@blogger.com
