GWOP II: More Gosselins Without Pity

Yes, Katie Irene has been and continues to be the architect of her own demise. I am not surprised at the woe is me approach by TLC. Expected it.

I cannot be misled nor will I forget what is on tape for all the world to see, Katie Irene.

And, Jon, well, not that I agree with your recent behaviors, but, sweet mercy,I have needed a good laugh lately.

It will be good for your children in the long run to see their father standing up and becoming a man again. New words for you to add to your vocabulary Jon- restraint, privacy, self control....

"the architect of her own demise" - oh the drama! Replace "her" with "his", and this can be the title of Jon's autobiography.

So it will be good in the long run for the kids to see what Jon is doing? Exactly how LONG will this take? When he's hitting on babes in the nursing home?

It will be good for the children if he moved back to Pennsylvania and helped take care of them like a "man" should. Nothing says "I don't want you anymore" like a two-bedroom apartment a four hour drive away.

So far the boys are already calling each other 'dude' and Aaden announced that he was having girlfriends - plural - coming over to his Crooked House. With that kind of influence Jon can stay as far away as he wants. Thankfully I have yet to hear any of the kids say "that's sick." If they do you'll know they spent a weekend with their pimp daddy.

Kate did NOT go to college. She went to nursing school - a non-degree program.

Reminds me of that line from Clueless, "You're a virgin...who CAN'T drive!"

So predictable...

I figured it out. Jon is sending a message to the Wernersville Witch. She thinks that she is hot stuff and a huge celebrity. She doesn't have the class that Jon was brought up with. She doesn't have the sophistication that he does. Okay, he has been beaten down and become slovenly in the process, but the basics are still there.

He has begun to be seen with the type of people that she aspires to. The only way that she gets attention is by flashing her crotch, her breasts and sagging butt to photographers. She can't even get her "Rent A Boyfriend", I mean security guard to stay with her. She doesn't even know to keep her elbows off the table while dining out, or not helping yourself to her dining partners meal.

Her castoffs are someone else's treasure.

Eat your heart out K8, the men are not beating a path to your door.

Yep, Jon is not just another giant douche looking to get laid wherever he can. He's a hapless victim of Kate's lust for celebrity status and a sophisticated, classy guy.

If you just sit silently in a dark room with your tv off, you are not really helping. Tell them who you are. Tell them why you will not watch. Don't be afraid to complain. Use your voice. Withhold your money. Promise to not buy their products. This show can be brought to an end, but it requires a little effort from all of us.

Do it for the sake of these kids. The kids are why we all want this show to end. Right! ?

Let me see if I have this straight. On August 3rd when J&K airs, the options are 1) to watch or 2) to sit in a dark room with the TV off. Dear Lord, if those are the only two options this person thinks are available it explains so, so much.

I thought about this right after I posted. It's actually probably better for those kids if he stays far, far away until he grows the hell up.

Let me tell you- what my BFF went through in nursing school was a hell of a lot harder than my undergraduate degree. Anyone who would sneer on nursing school is an idiot.

TUNDRA said... Anybody have a direct email or phone number for Paul Peterson so I can write or call him? I really want to know what his position is on this issue and whether he has considered contacting Maria Shriver personally? At the very least, perhaps Mr. Peterson (who is based in California) could refer me to a children's rights organization that is willing to take a public stand on this issue. Honestly, I am outraged that Shriver is not addressing this issue when any degree of sensitivity or awareness. Thanks in advance!!!!

They are absolutly making residual money off each and every episode thats replayed a million times a day. They do get paid off that as long as people continue to watch.

And you know this how? Residual payments are not typical for non-union (SAG) shows.

Looks like the theme for today is an oldie but goodie - Conspiracy!

Could the "relationship" between Kate II and Jon be all in her head?
He's denying it. I'd be very wary of her if I were Jon. She could be
an uncomfortable presence in his daily life. Stalkers are out there, claiming to love a "celeb".

Just a thought, not a conclusion.

Kate must be REALLY pissed.

She didn't get invited to France OR The Hamptons.

Please remember all this drama is a tie-in for August 3rd!!!

Absolutely, I believe that 100%. Jon is purposely making himself the "villain" to offset the horrid antics we saw from Kate for 4 seasons, so that TLC can paint Kate as "the good one", the responsible one, the one we should excuse for all her past tantrums and hurtful, selfish diva crap and empathize with her and keep watching the show. In return for taking the fall, no doubt Jon gets a ton of money. It's all a sham and a lie and like the show's opening always said:
"We're in it together". These two lied to everyone for 4 years, they lied in churches, in God's houses after all, so it's not a stretch that all this is lies too.

crabbygirl said...

Josie, I agree!! I think Kate subscribes to the idea that even bad publicity is better than no publicity. Jon will definitely get a piece of whatever pie Kate profits from. Strike while the iron is hot.

I really am starting to believe that the whole Hailey saga was/is fiction. Jon probably payed her to play the part, but is now in a pickle with the "new" Kate.2.

PTSD is so yesterday. Now Jon is doing this all on purpose at the behest of Kate and TLC to get a hefty paycheck. He has to go out to bars, smoke some joints, and have sex with women 10 years younger than him because he's working undercover and has to make it look real. Jon is a method actor. Yeah, that's the ticket.

*sigh* Really?? We're talking about TLC here, not exactly the Karl Rove of cable television. C'mon GWOP mods give it up already. Just focus on what you do best and Hate on Kate. I know Jon let you down, but it's time to let go. If Laura Linger can stop loving him you can to.

The irony, it burns!
