"John and Kate plus Eight" scandal

The article seems to sum things up pretty well. Dunno if my friend heard about this yet, because she loves the show.

I'm not surprised this happened. I've seen the show, and although the kids are cute, Kate really is a harpy, as the article says. I feel bad for the kids. They're at an age where things like this can affect them quite easily.

Good find. That is a nice primer on this whole mess. I've seen the show a couple times (Sarah's a fan). Yeah, neither of the parents come off that well on TV (Jon seems to be in "this is not my idea" mode half the time). The gossip makes them look even worse, especially as more of it seems to be legitimate. Can't help but feel sorry for these poor kids.

They get about 75,000 dollars per show. One season could easily pay for all 8 of them.

Yay, reality TV puts stupid people in the limelight. I wish I could be on reality TV so the world could examine every nook and cranny of my existence. Or not. Those poor people getting in trouble for things a lot of people do just because they are in the public eye. Sucks to be them, but if Tara suffers I laugh. Especially considering the reaction i got at Perkins.

Given that I would never live that down, I made a wisecrack instead. "Do you have a little white dress? I've had this deep-seated nurse fantasy about you, Murphy."

That's what she thought? Wow. That made me giggle. Something nice and uplifting for my day.
