jasoncalacanis added a comment June 18, 2009 08:59 PM| ReportThe only things I've ever heard about these people is that they hit their kids, cheat on each other and care more about fame then each other. Thanks, but I'm never going to watch an episode of this show....
mcjohnso added a comment June 18, 2009 09:12 PM| ReportYou know, they want us to feel for them, but if you take a step back you realize they're marketing the fact that they are having marriage problems and TEASING an announcement about getting a divorce. All while they lament the media hounding them.
britwit added a comment June 18, 2009 09:29 PM| Reportdidn't think it was possible for me to dislike (despise) the awful Kate more than I did already and then I see the photos of her hitting her child. Physical abuse is never okay - it just teaches kids to be fearful.
kahless added a comment June 18, 2009 09:29 PM| Report@jasoncalacanis - Having seen a few episodes of the show (my wife loves it), none of those things seem to be evident from the show, for what it's worth. On the other hand, it's not really a show anyone needs to watch, so feel free not to. :)
mdgky added a comment June 18, 2009 10:43 PM| ReportIf they get a divorce, it will make their entire family less appealing to watch. The world has enough dysfunction to deal with without watching more of someone else's. Besides, they are not rock stars, they are parents. Most of us are parents and don't get very much handed to us as they have been. Most parents, no matter how few of children there are, have to struggle to just live normally. Jon and Kate are not appreciative enough for what they have. -
