    TLC cancels 'Kate Plus 8'; last show airs Sept. 12

    NEW YORK (AP) — TLC says it is canceling "Kate Plus 8."

    The reality specials focusing on Kate Gosselin, her twin daughters and set of sextuplets morphed into a weekly series in its second season. But TLC announced Monday that its final episode will air Sept. 12.

    The show was spun off from the wildly popular "Jon & Kate Plus 8," which co-starred the youngsters' father, Jon Gosselin, at their home in Wernersville, Pa. Their marriage dissolved, and the couple divorced in 2009.

    By the end of its run, including "Jon & Kate Plus 8," the series will reach the 150-episode mark. TLC says it hopes to check in with Kate Gosselin and the family periodically with future specials.

      yeah!!!! Now maybe TLC ill use some of that $250k per episode money and put it else where. I think the kids are great but Kate is a female TOOL. She is SO FAKE it isn't funny. I love to think about at the early episodes when she didn't give two ***** about fashion or shopping for herself because she was a stay at home "struggling" mom -- so much that Jon had to help pick out her clothes to being someone who can not seem to go a day with out a skirt or heals, nails done and make up plastered all over her face - 95 lb woman she is now. I would say that she should have stayed the same way she was back then, but looking back that was prolly the front she was putting on for the show. I'm a sucker for these types of shows, but it's getting to the point where the first season they are so humble and real people with real lives and issues to get another season or more shows that come along with fat paychecks, paid trips and VIP treatment episode after episode. How can that be reality after a while?? I understand that on location they needs releases etc to tape shows but come on quite trying to make the viewers believe that your that original struggling family you started out as. I love to see people suceed but when they go from nothing to tens of thousands of dollars per episode they are no longer what they where....in my opinon.

        ...et al. The 12-part 1973 PBS series An American Family was the progenitor. We actually learned something about society. In this decade and last, we also have: Just how much money wastes of life can make, and how many fools will assist them in doing so by watching their inane antics.

      According to the comments here, she seems to be the second most hated woman next to Casey Anthony.

      Am I supposed to care? The morons at TLC (the learning channel? really?!) are the ones who put the bimbo on the air to start with. She's trash, her ex is trash and the idiots who run this network are trash.
    • Amy S  •  9 mths ago
      One horrid reality show down...thousands to go.
    • Brad  •  9 mths ago
      Thank God! Now if we never heard about Octomom again....
    • HasAnybodySeenRichie  •  9 mths ago
      now she's going to be REALLY mean to her kids.
      • Carol S 9 mths ago
        I totally agree. I really hope somebody with authority is going to watch out for them. I hope Katie Irene doesn't snap. We don't need another Susan Smith, Andrea Yates, or Marilyn Lemak. I really fear for those children. As happy as I am to know they won't be on TV every week, I fear that their mother is going to snap and do harm to them. I pray that isn't the case.

    • Susan  •  9 mths ago

      • D 9 mths ago
        the only job she can get, especially after job=n paid for all that liposuction, is as a hooker...
    • Bucs Girl  •  9 mths ago
      About time. Go away Gosselins!
    • Betsy  •  9 mths ago
      Yeah! Get Kate off TV and let her get over herself.
    • LAURIEO  •  9 mths ago

    • Cody Z.  •  9 mths ago
      I am so glad that her show is being canceled she is such a #$%$ No wonder Jon cheted on her the way that she treated him. I'm surprised that it took him that long to wise up.
    • Steve  •  9 mths ago
      Thank God.... Now I wonder what she will complain about.... oh that's right the show being cancelled she will have media time for this now... She is such a fake !!!!!
    • April P  •  9 mths ago

      "TLC" Isn't that The Learning Channel? What have you learned from the Gosselins? This should be fun.
