TLC posted the following press release on their site:
You watched Kate Gosselin plan the sextuplets' 10th birthday bash in June (and have an epic meltdown) and now you can follow your favorite oversized family on their summer vacation and into the new school year. "Kate Plus Eight" will return to TLC in December with all-new episodes! This time around, Kate and her eight growing kids will travel to Boston and explore different parts of New England on a family vacation.
You'll also see the kids rounding out the final days of summer with fun activities, while Kate preps the household for another school year. Teenagers Cara and Mady start 8th grade, and the sextuplets you know and love -- Alexis, Hannah, Aaden, Collin, Leah and Joel -- are beginning 4th grade. We can't wait to see the kids prepare for pencils, books and maybe even teachers' dirty looks, while balancing their time between friends and siblings. And you can be we'll see more classic Kate moments and funny banter from the outspoken kids.

Now this I don't understand. A chicken had to be killed in order to roast one. What does it matter whether it was one of the Gosselin chickens or one from the store? Why would killing a Gosselin chicken be any sadder than another chicken giving its life for you to rotate?
Unless you're a vegetarian, welcome to chicken.

Whew. I for one won't be watching any of these.
Thanks for the advice and well wishes everyone. Roo is back to her "lovey" self this morning.
I didn't read the tweet about Mady and the girls' drawers but why is it she is allowed in their room when the twins' is off limits even to Kate ( ha!) Remember the pounding Mady gave Alexis (I think it was her) when they were just moving in and Alexis wanted to see the twins' bedroom?
I couldn't believe how small the tups girls' bedroom was on CWS- hardly big enough for one child, let alone a hoarder's dresser! Why was bedroom filming allowed then btw!
Kate Gosselin @Kateplusmy8 2h
A rainy Sun afternoon&what r we doing? Going thru kids sock & 'unmentionables' (as my grandma used 2 call them) drawers! #NOTFUN
Fired Up 4 Kate @MiloandJack
@Kateplusmy8 So WHO is on the list 4NEW "unmentionables"? The BOYS here R definitely rougher on those items.... :)
*****************************************
This! It tweets like this from Kate that prevent me from having any sympathy for her whatsoever.
Why is this information even tweet worthy? Mothers world wide have been doing this since the invention of "unmentionables", so freakin' what.
Milo's response was of course creepy but it's also totally predictable, which in itself is kinda scary.
The two of them, Kate and Milo, just keep relentlessly and shamelessly hacking away at those kids' privacy as though they're not even real people.
It's disgusting and frankly I have no idea how either of them sleeps at night. They should both be ashamed beyond belief. The fact that they're not and they continue this constant invasion of privacy and exploitation is just evidence to me that they are both seriously mentally ill.
This! It tweets like this from Kate that prevent me from having any sympathy for her whatsoever.
&&&
Yes I know.
I find it hard to believe anybody but Kate is going through the drawers. Is she one of those weird people that refers to herself in the plural? We? What 10 or almost 14 year old would honestly want to help her organize a sock drawer?
She needs to hold onto these moments. In the blink of an eye it will be well past the time when it's appropriate for helicopter mommy to be going through a kids' sock drawer. Time to give them some privacy. And RESPECT.
Cleaning sock drawers is Twitter worthy news? Hashtag # NOTFUN? She has no idea of the real world , which of course is old news here. Who besides Milo cares. And then Milo goes and gets even creepier than usual. You really do have to wonder if Milo is not truly more than what she seems since TFW never shuts her down except perhaps with the silent treatment. Who lets a stranger make comments like that, beyond creepy, bordering on stalker? Perhaps TFW needs a primer course on privacy. The hell she does, but deaf ears I am sure.

My 'sediments' exactly, Sheri.
And if Kate is going to call them 'unmentionables' then she shouldn't mention them. She is apparently running out of details of her children's lives to exploit, so she starts digging through their drawers.

She's always sort of "tinkering" with silly little projects. A sock drawer here, a rotating chicken there, getting a friend to reupholster your chairs.
Meanwhile the rest of America has really pressing things to do like fixing the roof, taking care of an ailing elderly loved one, trying to make sure all the bills get paid.
I don't think she has any understanding how trite she sounds.
Kate will still be tweeting about going through the drawers when they're in college and she finds cigarettes and condoms in there.
I don't think the woman has boundaries.
Kate is driving her kids underground. They'll be hiding a lot of 'stuff' from her if she keeps snooping and it will be more than just material items if they know she doesn't trust them. She is absolutely clueless when it comes to building relationships with people.
So People, E!online and various other places have published Kate's back to school picture. Too bad she didn't copyright it, she could have gotten some money for it.
Either way, she's probably ecstatic that they picked up the picture, especially People, her favorite rag mag.
She's also probably ecstatic that she got a tweet from Leeza Gibbons about the picture. She promptly started following Leeza.

That's pathetic.
You know what the sad thing is? I think it would actually be okay if, once a year, we got a Gosselin back to school photo. But because we get daily in and out updates of every little thing all the way down to the poor kids' socks, it's just too much. Way too much. Once a year show us a pic and leave it at that and I wouldn't complain.
That tweet is definitely teasing material for the kids.I'm sure they must get teased sometimes given a mother like that and who posts very private things on Twitter.The 'unmentionables' is up there with the "unnerwears" line that they included in the special as well as Joel excitedly receiving underwear for fake Xmas.
(I recall in that Xmas episode Jon received 'unmentionables" from laundry folder Miss Beverley who 'noticed he needed new ones') Maybe males in the G family do not get new ones very often, thus Joel's excitement. ugh, I'm feeling a tad creepy myself, posting this.
She's also probably ecstatic that she got a tweet from Leeza Gibbons about the picture. She promptly started following Leeza
-------------
And that's exactly why she can't give up her Twitter. If not for that, then other sites wouldn't have picked up the picture and she wouldn't have tweets from her besties...her celebrity friends. It proves to her that she's still relevant, still "has it."
"I didn't read the tweet about Mady and the girls' drawers but why is it she is allowed in their room when the twins' is off limits even to Kate ( ha!) "
---------------
She didn't specify that it was Mady's drawers that she was going through. She said "kids,"so I am assuming it was all of the children's drawers, boys included, both sock drawers and "unmentionables."
Moon Over Miami - I guess this is the wrong blog for you.
------------------------
Some time ago there was another poster who used the same sign-in name, but I don't think this is the same person. The other poster, if I recall, had recently lost her husband, and didn't have a problem with anything said on this blog. She was respectful and offered quite a few very good comments here. This just doesn't sound like the same person. I doubt that it is.
Kate is driving her kids underground.

That's exactly what her type of overbearing parenting does. Exactly. It's so sad because in a an effort to seemingly "help" kids this style of parenting just pushes them away. Brenda comes to mind as well.
Why would killing a Gosselin chicken be any sadder than another chicken giving its life for you to rotate?
---------
Most likely because then you'd be eating a "pet." One that you fed every day, "knew" (as well as anyone would know a chicken), and I would imagine that if the kids knew it was one of their barnyard friends, it might upset them, and I could see that it would.
Yes Blowing I get that it's different for the kids, but this is Milo. What does she care? They're not HER chickens.
At the same time, I can't imagine owning a dog but then eating other dogs and thinking that's somehow "different."

Yup. This is the same person who was all set to sue Jon and Robert for exposing the contents of her journal. God forbid those kids keep a diary and she finds it. She wouldn't hesitate a moment to blab about it on twitter. But don't do it to her.
When I first saw that small chicken I thought that may have been dinner for her and Steve.

I read once that the reason some people are so offended by poop and other bodily functions is that it reminds us too much that we're all basically animals.
We like to think we, and perhaps even think our dogs too, are something sort of better or different than just an animal.

------------------
Yes! And that's what is so funny about the sheeple, always begging for photos, like they need a daily diet of someone else's kids. It's not like she doesn't post pictures on a regular basis. Kids couldn't have changed that much from the "special," but there are the sheep, wanting to see pictures...more and more pictures. Look at pictures of your own family and just leave the Gosselin kids alone. Don't encourage Kate to keep posting pictures or updates on sock drawers. It's just a continuation of the invasion of their privacy.
Milo and Kate are peas in a pod. I think they both feed off each other, and that's just plain bizarre. It's kind of like a mutual cleaning symbiosis. Kate is the sea turtle; Milo is the crab. Both get what they want from each other.
If she keeps going through their drawers she might just find an "I hate mommy" diary one of these days.
Ah, so the second day of school picture got published. No wonder
the rest of the kids posing on the first day sans L didn't cut it for
TFW. "Kate + 7?" That's got no pizzazz!
Admin (#33), I don't think TFW is a helicopter mommy - she
just plays one on TV and Twitter. She is more of a drill sergeant.
I believe she micromanages to satisfy her own need for control -
not to benefit the children. In her case, any successful parenting
choices are probably purely accidental. Like the saying goes,
even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Happy Labor Day to all the hard working women here!
The thong about Katie is that she NEVER takes the time to TEACH her children (shoelaces, anyone?).
I was certainly responsible for sorting my own drawers well before the age of 10.
Flimsy 55 Well stated.
I did not mean to exclude men from my Happy Labor Day wish.
Moon, It makes no difference toe whether you're the new moon or the old moon. I agree with you TMI and I'm a dog lover. There are ways of phrasing indelicate info so as not to offend. But as has been said often, free speech, Admins blog which she and
others handle well. JMO

They're going to want nothing to do with her when they look back at how she used every little personal detail of their lives for her gain. I think Mady and Cara are on to her and have been for a long time. They will distance themselves from her for their own self preservation. She was right when she said everybody leaves her. Gee, I wonder why.

Maybe Kate is gearing up to sewing socks she found had holes during the drawer-sorting and the UnderArmor lady will send them some more.
Or maybe some unmentionables need repair...I remember Kate tweeted something about buying her own items at Victoria's Secret!

Yeah, didn't think so. Even my husband kinda gets this glazed look if I talk about septic tanks and storm water run off and the Chesapeake Bay Act for more than sixty seconds.

I learned way more than I ever wanted to know about septic systems when mine failed. Who knew that once it fails, a new one must be installed? 'They' don't care if your lot size isn't large enough to place a new one that must be XX feet from the failed system, and can't be XX feet from any structure OR a fresh water line! It was a nightmare...though it did have one funny moment. I was talking to the plumber upset about the smell of the failed system, and he told me ''I only smell $$$$dollars$$$$''
Well Milo is really being defensive today about her tweet yesterday and even re-tweeted it to prove that it is a non-issue and stated that she often delets "convos" woth TFW to keep her timeline clean. My question would be so why this particular "convo" and not one from a week or so ago. Apparently this is her final word on it.
@MiloandJack: @Kateplusmy8 Well, I'm DONE w/the "unmentionables" convo!! See the trouble you got me into! LOL Have a gr8 day...2hot 4cook-out! :(
@CarleneMarie_1: @MiloandJack @Kateplusmy8 Lots of ppl commented on that tweet. But you're the one who gets attacked. They're the ones w/ the problem.

I guess lots of people may have commented stating that they also cleaned out the kids drawers and many commented that it was an inappropriate tweet. I think Milo was the only one to ask who needed new undies and to ask if the boys went through them faster like they did in her house. But we're the ones with the problem.
That tweet convo is classic Gladys - a passive/aggressive thanks
to TFW for getting her into trouble, followed by an LOL. And, as my
hypothetical tweet yesterday predicted, blaming those who dared
call her out for living with their "mindsN the gutter."
See the trouble you got me into! LOL

Well here is where I will defend Kate. Milo, Kate did not get you in trouble. You got yourself in trouble. Kate did not ask you to defend her or for that matter ask you to interact with her in the first place. Grow up and take responsibility for your rude and inappropriate and creepy tweets to her.
I think Milo was the only one to ask who needed new undies and to ask if the boys went through them faster like they did in her house. But we're the ones with the problem. 71
Consider the source. And Milo, it was YOUR tweet. No one else's. If Katie wanted to have this "convo" with you, I'm sure she would have used one of those fickityhundred other ways you two communicate.

Bang on! It's not about having a dirty mind, it's about what the hell makes it okay to talk about their underwear (ON THE INTERNET - WORLD WIDE WEB) in the first place.
We're just trying to get them to STFU about these kids personal and PRIVATE lives.
Milo, kiss Kate's ass all you want. Just stop asking for photos and updates and information about her kids. It's none of yours or anyone else's business.
@CarleneMarie_1: @MiloandJack @Kateplusmy8 Lots of ppl commented on that tweet. But you're the one who gets attacked. They're the ones w/ the problem.
Carlene, you are dumber than a box of hair, and you claim to have been a teacher. Yes, others commented on it, but Milo is the only nosy one who wanted to know WHO needs new unmentionables. It's none of her darn business. It's not your darn business, and both of you, as adults, should know better. It was a creepy tweet, no matter how you try to spin it, and Carlene, if you agree that it was nothing more than a harmless tweet then you, along with Milo, most definitely have a problem, and a$$ kissing is just one of them.
I'm surprised that Gladys isn't off pouting somewhere, playing the martyr.

I read someone's comment above as "chill Sargent" not "drill Sargent" works for her both ways.
I think that when I go to bed tonight, I am going to thank my lucky stars that I don't know anyone like Kravitz. I don't have anyone like that in my life, and I don't have her peerin in my windows or hanging around my bathtub. She (or he) is really a piece of work.

That's an excellent way to put it. Whoever or whatever Milo is, she serves a purpose for TFW, and vice versa.
And Milo, if you read here, you're the one with the dirty mind. Anyone who wants to know anything about someone else's kids' underwear, has a creep factor that's off the charts. And that's you dear.
Perverts almost always out themselves. They can't help it. To them, it seems normal to ask "which of your children needed new "unmentionables"? Even when it's pointed out that the question was highly inappropriate (at best), Milo can't understand.

Rhetorical questions are often humorous and don't require an answer. However, I would be remiss to turn down any offer of a Rumspringa ... so yes, thank you, I would love one. And could you make it a tall one, please? I believe it will help end the doggie poop discussion on a happier note.

Yep Milo is a creep, no doubt about it!
But....Instead of reading TFW's twitter & worrying about it, I've been catching up on the UK Apprentice & binging on Breaking Bad.
Love both of them! Thanks to this group for the recommendations!
Absent tone of voice and facial expressions, it's really hard to tell for sure that we're reading things exactly as they're intended. Moon's opinion might not have been in the mainstream, but that "lol" seemed to me a wink to let us know that she wasn't trying to offend.
This blog's been called a "front porch" on several occasions, because the conversations casual and free-flowing, and opinions are as varied as the people who stop by. As long as they're polite in stating their disagreements, I really don't get why anyone would (or should) be shooed away.

That's right on the money too. A child may want to alienate a parent. They may choose that that is right for them. But they need to make the decision THEMSELVES. When somebody else makes the decision for them, especially the other parent, they may be okay with it at first but when they get old enough eventually they will only resent having such an important decision taken away from them.

That's what is so disturbing about the whole thing. She doesn't think that she did anything wrong. You don't tweet underwear questions to the parent of minor children. You just don't...no matter how cute or innocent you think it may be at the time. She tweeted today that all humans wear underwear. Huh? Yes, but they don't ask a parent which child needs new underwear! She just doesn't get it. Then she made excuses about why she deleted the tweet, saying that she was cleaning up her timeline like she always does. She removed that tweet not long after she sent it. She must have had second thoughts about it.
Fired Up 4 Kate @MiloandJack
@PRFANS @Kateplusmy8 When I finish convos w/Kate..I often clean my timeline. You all know that. I have NO problem posting the tweet again!
So why didn't she remove her tweets from today if she cleans her TL after conversing with Kate? Then the dingbat re-tweeted it today.
lol!! What was that photo she tweeted that looked like something a dog threw up on a plate? Am I allowed to say that? Was it the sausage cacciatore? They.they all looked the same after awhile.
====
Sleepless, yes it was the sausage cacciatore and I still feel uncomfortable talking about it. The photo was unpleasant to the eyes. There were snow peas in it, lol.
She wrote a cookbook. I don't get it. I just don't get it.
As long as they're polite in stating their disagreements, I really don't get why anyone would (or should) be shooed away.

"Besides all of the back-to-school clothing and supplies shopping, she must also shuttle her massive brood of children off to their first day of classes."
She takes them to the bus stop...about 10 minutes away. That's hardly shuttling them off to classes.
"The Gosselin family stayed home from the actual first day of school because Leah was battling a case of strep throat."
They did? Kate kept the whole family home because Leah was sick?
"Recently it was reported that Kate Gosselin is keeping her children from Jon Gosselin, despite a court order and the fact that he is paying child support as required."
Jon has resumed paying child support?
"Kate Gosselin has more than 215,000 Twitter followers, which explains why she still manages to trend on the internet, despite her lack of a successful TV show in recent years"
I didn't realize that paid bots would be a contributing factor to trending on the internet.
James Kosur is the co-founder and CEO of GiveItLove.com. His website focuses on positive stories and viral news. He has served as the head of business development, COO, and CEO for numerous online companies over the last 17 years.
I think "James" should do some fact-checking before he puts out a story!
I don't think TFW is half the helicopter parent Admin and others seem to think she is. I'd put money on most of the eight desperately trying to get her attention, instead of trying to hide things. Remember that episode when she admitted she hadn't been in the twins bedroom for months? I bet she's still like that and that when the kids are home she stays in her room or forces them to be in a whole other part of the house. And that's when she's not giving all her attention to Twitter and Skeeve.

I'm rather pissed off right now. I just turned on the TV to watch Under athe Dome and apparently CBS is having a dispute with DirecTv so the station has been pulled. I guess I'll just have to wait and watch it on Amazon Prime tomorrow or so....why can't it be TLC having the dispute?! Please pass the rumspringa.
============================
Sorry to hear that you missed the episode. On the UTD FB page, there were a lot of complaints about people not being able to watch it because of a dispute between DirectTV and CBS. For your sake, I hope they settle it soon.
You can also watch episodes it here. CBS has already posted last night's episode. No spoilers--but I will say it was a good episode!

She tweeted today that all humans wear underwear.
*************
MN governor Jessie Ventura publicly bragged that he doesn't wear underwear. I guess he must not be human? I always knew there was something a little 'off' about him...
Kate must be pooping in her unnawears over getting her kids school photo picked up by the gossip sites.
Congrats, Kate, you'll exploited your children once again.
I can't wait for the day when one or more of those kids says "NO" to getting their photo taken because they don't want their mug plastered all over the internet.
Off topic: A while back, someone mentioned a memoir written by one of the real-life family members featured in "Cheaper by the Dozen." Anyone remember the title?
If the kids fight over the guest toddlers like they do Zorro and the animals at the farm that time - that poor cat!- they would NOT be in good hands.Oh, well, probably not true anyway.

Kate Gosselin @Kateplusmy8 · 1h
I am almost positive Zorro spoke his 1st word this am. He repeated 'Hurry', numerous times after I said it originally 2 Alexis! Go figure!
Whoever suggested Steve put the chicken on the rotisserie
inadvertently coined a hilarious new euphemism.
I'll see myself to the naughty corner...
"The Gosselin family stayed home from the actual first day of school because Leah was battling a case of strep throat."
They did? Kate kept the whole family home because Leah was sick?
&&&
I don't think that's what happened and I can see most schools being pretty darn ticked off if other children were kept home just because a sibling was sick.
They are individuals, not a pack.
"Recently it was reported that Kate Gosselin is keeping her children from Jon Gosselin, despite a court order and the fact that he is paying child support as required."
&&&
Keeping one's children from one because they are not paying support is not a legal punishment in Pennsylvania or any state that I am aware of. What is this article?
Sounds like Zorro is mocking TFW.
I've always liked that bird.
Speaking of "large broods" 116 -- There were several memoirs written by a couple of the Gilbreth children. The first one is "Cheaper by the Dozen" by Frank Gilbreth and the second is "Belles On Their Toes" by Frank Gilbreth and his sister Ernestine. There's also biography of the mother, Lillian called "Making Time - Lillian Moller Gilbreth -- a Life Beyond Cheaper By the Dozen" by Jane Lancaster.

This is true. I've read some of it, but only understand a tiny part of it, if that. I don't have Twitter, so I have no idea who these people are. However, although there is so much name-calling and vicious comments, there does seem to be so much legalese, numerous supporting documents, files submitted, etc., that it would seem that some of this is legit. I mean...are they faking these court docs and filings? Is this all one big hoax? If any of this is true, then it looks like BV is in a bit of legal trouble.

It's possible if she uses that word consistently, that the bird would have said this. Repetition is the key word when birds learn to talk. My gray heard "Mom where are you" so many times that those were his first words.

As I said to Bill, who has posted here before, the twitter "haters" used to be a funny group and always had links to back up what they said with regards to Kate's activities. Then something happened and a lot of vile, disgusting name calling began--maybe a new group of haters? Anyway, the bar was drastically lowered and now there's BVfiles run by an ex-con.
By being trashed does that mean being called dirty names, etc. How is that hurting them? Tit for tat? Am I missing something? One thing's for sure, that war that started 8 years go and involved Kate, her fans and haters now has expanded to include felons and various and sundry low-lifes.
So Zorro has spoken! First word is something that SHE said. Doesn't surprise me!
A little Timneh arrived here last week. His "parents" are elderly and just moved to an assisted living facility and I am in the process of finding a home for him. He's really sweet and was well cared for. I was cleaning the kitchen floor yesterday, and out of the blue, the bird said, "Time to mop...mop the floor." I laughed out loud. Apparently the couple really cleaned a lot. It reminded me of Lee and Morty in the Swiffer commercial.

one of the dangers with multiples is that "parents forget

"a unit" or "a pack." Sound familiar?

Really? Do you have a link or other info regarding the prison history of the person who runs BV files?
Either way - whoever runs BV files is clearly intelligent, is very good at computer research and regular research, and has exposed the very ugly truths about James McGibney and his associates. Whether it's someone who once served prison time or not, that is important information especially for anyone targeted by McGibney.
And many people have served time in prison. Once they've served their sentence, they are released back into society. Used to be they were considered to have paid their debt for their crime. If from that point on, they are law abiding, seems like that ought to still hold true.

I still read there, on average once per week. I look to see if there is a new blog post, or any updates on the ongoing lawsuits. I don't read through much of the comments, because it's like wading through a thrift store rack. Most of it is not worth a second glance, but interspersed throughout are the occasional informative posts.
If you find it vile, I'm assuming you no longer read there. I plan to continue checking in because I use the "scroll past the crap" method and it works very well for me.

Exactly, that's not a deal breaker for me and it seems perplexing to keep bringing it up. Depends on what it is too. If it's murder or a sex crime, that's one thing.
But there are numerous crimes that do not in and of themselves make you dangerous or your opinions on matters not credible. Orange is the New Black is a true story about a woman who, when she was an extremely young woman, was involved in the drug trade. Once she realized the error of her ways, she stopped completely and reentered society as a law abiding citizen. Just before the statute of limitations expired the government pressed charges as part of a big bust. So she went to prison for less than one year. She made a mistake. A bad one. But she admitted to it, and did her time. She was a successful professional I believe worked in magazines. Is she not allowed to return to society and resume her professional career? Read her book, it's very good. I don't think Piper Kerman (her real name is not Chapman) is a bad person or a danger to society. I think she was a dumb kid who paid dearly for her mistakes and has a right to move on now.

LOL - I seem to be jumping in to "defend" BV Files, which is not my intent.
I will just say that the court documents I saw linked on BV Files contained the name of the court the lawsuit was filed in, a case number, the names of the parties, and almost always an endorsed-filed stamp. That the date stamp that goes in the upper right corner of the first page of any document filed with a court. The clerk stamps that on the original, and also will provided a "file-endorsed" copy for the party filing the document.
With all those things showing on the linked court documents, I tend to believe they are genuine. It would be so easy to prove them false, because all one has to do is take the time to do a little research on that particular court's website - look up the case name or the case number. If it's a phony, that's easily proved.
Since BV Files has had those court documents linked for quite some time, I'm pretty sure they are real.

Who runs BV Files? I read over there, and I agree with other posters here that the person is no dummy.
I also don't think it's fair to judge a web site on its comments. I judge the individual of the comment, not the web site.
There are several very mainstream web sites that are full of vile comments. This is nothing. Take a gander at CNN's comments sometime and see how many internet trolls and angry, vicious people there are out there who comment on web sites.
I find CNN.com extraordinarily helpful in getting a very quick, 5 minute basic run down of the top stories of the day each morning. Especially since I have severely limited my news intake lately for various reasons (read Mr. Money Mustache's post about this). I don't really care that there is some epic fight on the economy story of the day or that there are a couple crazies posting about politics. It has nothing to do with the validity of the story itself and I'm not sure why one would give such weight to such comments or hold sites responsible. Like another poster said some sites have chosen not to heavily moderate. Some very mainstream ones. That's not right for my blog, but I don't fault other blogs for letting it rip.
Tweet, I'm sorry but I'm not going to let you start a war with another blog on this blog. Go post over there if it upsets you. We are not in the business of picking a fight with someone who has done us no wrong and in fact has taken up for this "side" of things.
I noticed on the Little People update special tonight they called upcoming specials a "season." I'm not aware this show is truly back on a regular basis. It sounds like maybe 2 or 3 update specials about the older boys' weddings.
I kind of wonder how if TLC is playing fast and loose with "seasons" only to air just a couple update specials. If that's the case great, less filming for the kids.
Tweet, I don't think most of the posters here even read over there. Very few people even talk about this except you. It's very old news. I think only a few people here could actually give an accurate rundown of the saga. I myself haven't read there and ages and don't plan to. It's completely boring to me. I also wouldn't worry about the critical thinking skills here, posters are well capable of deciding for themselves what they want to read, what they want to believe, and who is credible without lectures.
From what I've read, the new "season" of LPBW consists of 5 episodes. This article was linked on their FB page.
http://www.thewrap.com/tlc-sets-little-people-big-world-return-its-a-roloff-wedding-exclusive/
From that article:
"Jeremy Roloff's wedding with longtime girlfriend, Audrey Botti, caps off the five-episode new season. Fans will watch as Jeremy plans the proposal to Audrey and it all culminates in a wedding on the farm, something Jeremy has always wanted."
Another article also states that it is a 5 episode "season":
"Oregon's Roloff family and their Helvetia-area farm return to TV screens on Tuesday, as TLC begins a new, five-episode season of "Little People, Big World."
http://www.oregonlive.com/movies/index.ssf/2014/09/oregons_roloff_family_returns.html
I guess if it's more than 2 "specials", TLC considers it a "season". So I would think that the new episodes of Kate plus 8 will be maybe a total of 5 episodes tops.
And completely off topic (sort of), but the picture attached to a tweet tonight really does show the non-existent good bra in all its glory.

88888888888888888888
I took a look over there because it was mentioned here and I was curious. Since I don't have Twitter, there is no way on this side of the Mississippi that I could figure out who these people are, nor is it even on my radar to try to wade through all of that and make a feeble attempt to dissect it. I will say, however, that even though I have no idea who put that blog together, the person (or persons) clearly knows something about court proceedings and did a considerable amount of research on these people, their past histories, and has informants out there who do contribute to the whole saga. The documents appear to be credible, not faked. It doesn't seem that this has been slapped together haphazardly. It took time and digging to lay out what has been presented.
That said, if any of this is true, and BV and his minions are under scrutiny for these acts they allegedly committed, I hope that this has put the fear of God in them, and their misdeeds do not go unpunished under the law.

Ah cool, thanks for finding that. I had a funny feeling they didn't have a REAL season. Sure enough.
That's TLC again, what do they care if they mislead people. These things have industry wide common definitions, and a season in the industry is, at bare minimum, 13 episodes and usually more like 23. To try to call 5 episodes a "season" is just silly. And, I think it's EXACTLY what they're doing with their new "season" of Kate Plus 8. A five episode, or perhaps even less, consolation prize and she's outta there.
5 episodes calling it a season is quite the stretch and IMO, misleading. That is a miniseries or "specials." By the way tonight's Little People was very boring. I think they've overstayed their welcome. They never even featured Jeremy's girlfriend more than a few seconds to care about his proposal to her. We know nothing about her, and perhaps that was her own decision since Zack's fiancee is featured all the time.

If this were the UK, people would be used to shows having sub-13-episode seasons. A season (or, as they call it, "series") for Sherlock is three 1.5 hour movies. The IT Crowd's first series was four half-hour episodes. Top Gear does about 7-8 episodes a series, and they've had 21 series over a span of twelve years.
In the US, short seasons have been used to finish up shows. La Femme Nikita had an eight-episode 5th season after USA Network got a ton of angry fan mail when USA decided to cancel La Femme Nikita long after the 4th season had finished on a cliffhanger. The reboot, Nikita, got 6 episodes to wrap things up after The CW decided the 4th season would be the show's last. Instead of a regular 22-episode order, Glee had that trimmed to 13 for their final season.
So it's plausible that TLC could be doing a mashup of contractual obligation and finishing off the series. The ratings may have been OK for the last special, but that was because the kids hadn't really been heard from in a few years. A regular series order would kill that curiosity factor.

Unless the Gosselin kids can refuse filming, or Jon can put a stop to it on their behalf, mark my words, we're going to see more "specials" or limited seasons until they are 18, and maybe beyond.
When the twins/tups; begin high school, turn 16 and learn to drive, graduate high school, go off to college, will all be fodder for future filming.
The wild card might be Kate getting remarried once filming prospects for the kids dry up.
I don't think the public at large holds anything against the kids, so they'll tune in to see them growing up, as sad as that is.
I don't think Kate on her own could carry a show.
I sort of wish she could.
Don't expect those kids to ever get a chance to recoup their privacy. It's just not going to happen, unfortunately.

I just think that Kate and Little People will take whatever they can get to continue filming, even if it's just a handful of episodes.
Sure, they'll bitch about the downside of filming, and claim they want to go back to being private citizens, but ultimately, they can't get off the TLC tit.
I probably have even less sympathy for the Little People than I do the Gosselins. They are all adults except Jacob, who is almost an adult. They clearly have many other endeavors that could support the family, including the pumpkin farm and Amy's cooking and books career. They should have saved millions by now. And, the parents have nobody to support anymore but themselves. The kids are off in the real world now.
There's no way they "need" to film and I don't even want to hear a complaint out of them.

I still think it's deliberately misleading to call episodes you can count on one hand a season. What it is is they came out to film for a couple weeks and then STREETTTTCHED out the footage into five episodes, nothing more nothing less.
Especially since TLC is actually known for producing way more than the normal 20-something episodes.
The sheeple have now been told it's a "season." I can't imagine their confusion when and if the season only consists of one New england trip STREEETCHED out into several episodes and maybe a token back to school episode and it's over.

I think you're giving them too much credit.
They'll be so thrilled to see their idol, I doubt they'll notice that nothing actually happens.
If you're a frequent reader at CNN, you'll notice that very few articles have comments any more, and those that do seem like they have a handful that slip through before being closed down. I usually skim the comments to get an idea of how the public is viewing a certain event. The trolls were taking over and it's unfortunate that having civil discourse was becoming impossible.
&&&
Yes they don't allow comments on some of the most controversial articles. Today's ISIS video doesn't have a place to comment. If you go over to the fluff articles about entertainment or the economy or Naked Celeb hack. I looked at the comments on that article and they're pretty tame this morning, but a couple people can't help themselves and divert off topic to talking about ISIS saying really nasty things, and there's people getting pretty snippy now and again:

Really? You're not 115% sure?
Point being, it seems to me most unmoderated comments go south pretty quickly. This is not something unique to BVFiles. This is, apparently, just the internet. If you don't like that for your site, you will have to find time yourself or recruit a staff, as I did, to help you moderate. For a big web site like CNN that's a huge expense. If you don't like that as a reader, don;t look at the comments just read the article.
I don't know, the sheeple were pretty darn confused when last May's update special was sliced in half and stretched out. They thought the show was coming back. Like almost all of them thought this, based on one special aired on two separate nights. They found it terribly confusing.
I just think that Kate and Little People will take whatever they can get to continue filming, even if it's just a handful of episodes.
Sure, they'll bitch about the downside of filming, and claim they want to go back to being private citizens, but ultimately, they can't get off the TLC tit.

You know what this is also? Big surprise, TLC using these families. Not committing to any long contracts or episodic obligations. Throwing them a bone every now and again to put out spurts of a couple specials or episodes. See how they do, and if they do well, go back to the source for another spurt or two. This is a way not to lock themselves into any long commitments, but at the same time leaves these families in a constant state of uncertainty about what will happen next, instead of being able to relax into a nice long contract. The Little People and the Gosselins have both been working for them for years and years now. And this is how they treat their talent, by stringing them along?
This is not how good people do business. Either go all the way with your talent or get off the pot. Stringing talent along generally should be frowned upon, and I can't imagine most "real" talent and their managers would be okay with this treatment for at MOST anything more than ONE test run and then after that you need to give them a long term contract.
And this "stringing along" method is especially sketchy when it come
to a family with young kids like the G's. They're at the age when
(supposedly) they have afterschool activities like sports or classes - things with particular schedules that can't just be switched around
at the drop of the hat.
In my gut, I think that's as much a reason as any that we don't
hear about the G kids doing soccer or theater camp or gymnastics
or horseback riding - only about C's lacrosse. Besides TFW's
obvious reluctance to open her wallet for anyone but herself,
and her laziness about having to drive hither, thither and yon,
I believe she wants to be able to show TLC she's ready to get
back in the saddle at a moment's notice: "You want to come
over to film tomorrow afternoon? Well, bring on the crew
daddies - we'll be here!"
There's no way they "need" to film and I don't even want to hear a complaint out of them.
******
I've watched about 3 minutes of that show, but isn't complaining all the Matt does?
I think what's fascinating is that at this point, we are seeing generational effects of reality tv filming of children.
Children pretty much raised on reality tv are now getting married and having their own children on reality tv.
The cycle just continues on for the Duggars and Little People.
The spin off possibilities are never ending for these families who exist at the ends of the bell curve.

&&&&
EXACTLY.....dollars to donuts they want her to drop things just like that. The kids are WAY too old for that sort of nonsense, but it's happening.
Remember her "good news" phone call she got this summer? She had to play it off like it was braces but I think most of us have speculated that was her confirmation of filming. That was made not but a week or two before filming began. So if our suspicions are correct, and I believe they are, TLC is indeed both stringing her on and having her sign on the dotted line at their total whim and fancy often just a few weeks before leaving. That's way too late to try to accommodate kids' sports and activities and camps, so the best solution is to never sign them up in the first place.
They know they have her over a barrel and can play this however they want to their maximum advantage. However it's neither respectful of the family, or good business. Not that I expected anything more. This is not how you treat talent, TLC, I don't care who they are. Even Kate Gosselin.

I just don't know how TLC can expect the Gosselins to be able to fulfill a contract for full-on filming, pumping out as many episodes in the insane fashion that they did for J+K+8 and Kate +8 now that 8 kids are in the full throws of a demanding education.
It's insane to think that those kids can perform well in school AND tolerate the blistering filming and traveling schedule that they had.
I hope those kids never get signed up for the demanding filming schedules that they were obligated to when they were younger, and in lower grades where the homework etc. demands were less.
It's simply nuts to entertain the notion now. Heck yes, Kate would take the opportunity in a heartbeat, but would TLC risk looking like 19th century tabacco farmers?
Let's see...Zorro said "hurry". Lol. That's perfect. It won't be long before he says, "Be quiet", "You're not welcome", and "Leave me alone".
Actually, I can't imagine Katie bitching about filming (are show is are life)
Bitching about everything else - absolutely.

Agree about Kate- she bitches about being in the tabloids and all the rumors, and all the paps, and blah, blah, whaaaaaaaa!!!
Then, she jumps at the chance to get her mug on tv again.
Tucker's Mom (#179), I agree it's deplorable what TLC is trying
to get away with. And yet they continue. They're making hay
while the sun shines.
When we talk about what'll happen regarding specials with the
G kids 5 years down the line or even later, I think we should factor
in that the pendulum may've swung back the other way by then.
The term "reality shows" may be out of vogue, and maybe even something looked back on with shame, or just amusement, like,
what the heck was that about?
The landscape of TV is changing drastically. Five years ago, you would've laughed if someone told you Amazon and Netflix would
be producing succesful shows: "Oh, yeah, sure, who's next --
KMart? Burger King? Edible Arrangements?" While TFW has
far outlasted her 15 minutes, there is no guarantee that there
will be any place for her at all a few years down the line in the
medium which is the focal point of her, heaven help us, career.
About 'hither, thither and yon...' Do you think Kate came up with that line or was it scripted. It seemed such an odd thing to say,let alone think.
Interesting. Someone posted a recipe on FB for Apple-Cinnamon Cake. The comment section is a disaster, with name-calling and worse, with an argument about healthy v. unhealthy. All over a recipe. LOL

I think that the anonymity of the internet can bring out the worst in some people. There is an op-ed writer for a local paper who draws very personal criticism that has nothing to do with whatever topic she wrote about in a given column. It's not worth sorting through those comments for the few intelligent ones. Same with bvfiles. I check the postings once a week or so, but can't be bothered with the comments. This blog is an exception, thanks to Amin., the moderators and the vast majority of posters.
Re: Little People. Sure "the kids" are off in the real world now, but are they really prepared to do anything? It seems to me that the two older boys were not the best students and I don't even know if they went to and/or finished college. My guess is that they want the easy money that they saw their parents making and will want to continue to film. Who knows, once they both get married they may even get a spin off series.
As Flimsy said above, the landscape of TV is changing and by the time any of the G8 are old enough to have some sort of spin off, reality TV may be a thing of the past and as the G8 get older (and wiser) TFW won't be able to get away with not giving them their fair share of the earnings. We may already be seeing this with Mady and Cara.
Many good actors are now filming shows in venues like Amazon, Netflix, etc. Amazon has a new show called "Hand of God" staring Ron Perlman and Dana Delany. From their description: "An Amazon Original Pilot: A psychological drama about a morally-corrupt judge who suffers a breakdown and believes God is compelling him onto a path of vigilante justice."

This is my belief.
I think we will look back in shame that we allowed children to be used and exposed so people would make millions.
I think we'll wonder why so little was done, and why people who took action, like Rep. and his work, went all but unnoticed on the radar for so long.
I think the tide will turn, and the days of using real kids and their real lives, trials and tribulations for entertainment will truly be looked upon with the same disbelief as The Truman Show.

Not to mention that all children deserve protection and privacy.

This is what I predict for some of the Gosselin kids.
Neither Kate nor Jon can compel them to go to college.
As Kate says, all the damn time, filming is their normal. Well, guess what? It doesn't turn off like a faucet when they turn 18!
Those kids have seen their parents make millions and live the 1% lifestyle because of being on reality tv.
What incentive do they have to work hard on a degree (or more) and make only enough money to live a mediocre life?
They will more than likely be offered gigs on tv, if not their own shows, and so it goes...

Yes, who would have thunk it!
These outlets are producing excellent tv, which has provided so much good entertainment.
I just don't get why anyone tunes into Kate, or HBB or Little People, or Raising Asiazilla.
Molly is bright and in college. Jeremy graduated from a pretty respected photography school and the work they showed of his is decent enough to make a living as a wedding or portrait photographer. Zach and the youngest one I think have struggled the most.

I don't think reality TV will ever go away, but I think shows about families like the Gosselins, Duggars, Roloffs, etc. will eventually disappear.
It seems that more and more, reality TV is gearing towards the more sensational, outrageous, and salacious. I think "wholesome" family shows have reached their prime and will eventually fade away.
I just read where WeTV is going to have a new show called "Sex Box". This is a synopsis of that show:
"The show is an American adaptation of the UK Channel 4 series of the same name that sought to “reclaim sex from pornography” (their words) by having couples step into a giant box erected on the set, have sex inside of it, and then emerge for a post-coital chat about their seven minutes in heaven—or hell—with a panel of sexperts.
“Sex Box is one of the most unique and compelling show concepts we’ve ever seen, and we can’t wait to bring it to WE tv,” said Marc Juris, WE tv’s president. “Our featured couples will get a once-in-a-lifetime experience, while our viewers will get the kind of bold, break-through-the-clutter programming they increasingly associate with WE tv.”
“Once each couple enters the sex box, our experts discuss their initial observations, ranging from what they think is happening inside the box to whether or not the relationship will survive,” read a statement by WE tv. “Immediately upon exiting the sex box, each couple sits down for a heart-to-heart with the expert panelists to discuss what just happened, how they feel, and how they’re planning to overcome their issues.”
Hmm--maybe Kate and Steve can apply to be on the show.

Ok, I give up. Just eeeeeeeeewwwww.
Last night, the haters and sheeple were having a heated argument about Robert's book--again. The haters kept asking Milo to ask Kate that if the book was "embellished"(as Milo says) why didn't Kate sue Robert for libel. Here is part of that convo. I think Milo just makes up excuses as she goes along.

Legal details/issues not obvious to the general public? I guess Milo doesn't consider herself the "general public" because she acts like she know what she's talking about. If prolonged court proceedings cost lots of $$, why did Kate even sue in the first place? Did BV convince her it was a slam dunk, and Jon and Robert would give in and not fight it?
olivia walton @lovemedietcoke · 14h
@MiloandJack huh?If even1thing in that book is not true.She shld sue him.i would.Most people would not want 2 be known as a child abuser!

@lovemedietcoke Long costly court battle would be wasteful ...her kids education/health care & other necessities R MORE important! #Priority
But Milo, Kate said that the reason she filed the law suit was because"It has to be done for the safety and the future of my kids,"
So she filed the first lawsuit for the "safety and future of my kids", but now according to Milo she's NOT filing a new lawsuit for exactly the same reason.
Yep a lawsuit sure can get prolonged when the other side decides they're not going to just lay down and die while you trample all over them and their finances. Sucks they fought back huh Milo.
Hmm--maybe Kate and Steve can apply to be on the show.

He have to admit that he's with her first.
Wow, I see the reality TV is really going down the toilet. Besides the strange eating habits of some people, strange habits of some people, now that multi-families are almost a thing of the past, now they are going back to exploring sex again for the millionth time. First we have/had: Naked & afraid, Naked Shopping, Naked Dating, now Sex in a Box, what's next that is a Taboo thing: Sex in a Church, during service? Sex in the Street, How about Sex at Xmas during Black friday, at any store, at the entrance or I don't even want to think about Sex with any living creature(SICK!).
How low can these channels go? How low are people in society willing to go? I see many of our young people write sex off as an everyday thing, like breathing, until they get a social disease, or pregnant, or a bad rep, then it's everybodys fault, except their own. No common sense, respect, self respect, or any regard for any kind of law. Shame on these channels and those young people, who have no respect, for themselves or anyone or thing else, and no common sense.

I probably have even less sympathy for the Little People than I do the Gosselins. They are all adults except Jacob, who is almost an adult. They clearly have many other endeavors that could support the family, including the pumpkin farm and Amy's cooking and books career. They should have saved millions by now. And, the parents have nobody to support anymore but themselves. The kids are off in the real world now.
There's no way they "need" to film and I don't even want to hear a complaint out of them.
********
Agreed. There is no way they should "need" to film, except that they squandered the TLC money they earned previously. It's a reminder of human nature. We hear of lottery winners who blow through their millions and end up broke once again. I always shake my head and wonder how that happened. There must be something in our genetic make-up that makes many of us simply refuse to face reality.
Same thing with reality tv participants. They get so caught up in the money and the excitement, that they believe it will go on and on forever. All around them, they ought to see the reality as shows get canceled and former D-listers fade away, but I guess they think they are different. And they keep spending that money until it's all gone.
I am pretty sure that's what happened with the Roloffs. As fast as that money came in, it went right back out the door.
I don't think reality TV will ever go away, but I think shows about families like the Gosselins, Duggars, Roloffs, etc. will eventually disappear.

Discovery Communications must have anticipated that viewers, other than the sheep of course, aren't buying the 'reality' part of Reality TV anymore so they call themselves the world’s #1 Nonfiction Media Company. Doesn't that sound better? lol.
I watched both shows, the Duggars and Little People:
Little People: The oldest just graduated, he is trying to dig out a life for himself and a wife, away from the farm. Which, I notice bugs & disappoints Matt. Matt, is having a hard time letting go of people & things. He wants everyone to do what he wants, he wants them to live the way he wants and he wants the kids all of them to take over the farm. Amy is glad, whether she admits it or not, that her kids are leaving the nest. I think she would leave the farm too in a minute if she were not invested. Matt always comes off to me as a control freak, who will have a hissy fit if he does not get his way, and if people don't agree with him, he will do it anyway. He has no respect for anyone opinion but his own. I see why his kids are leaving.
Duggars, you know I might not agree with a lot of their ways of living, but you know, they are nice to people, they will stop and talk to people even take a pic, unlike a certain self important, public are diseased scum mom we all know. I have never seen any of the kids fight, or either parents scream or drama queen at any of the kids.
As for K8 being put on in December: bad time to put any new show on, cause most of regular TV and Cable are ending for Holiday shows & the holidays. Also, a lot of people are working extra jobs, Xmas shopping, making cookies, going to parties. Who wants to watch a family of mediocres: fight, get freebees, summer vacation , start school, which was 4 months ago plus, BORING! If I were Kate(which I'm glad I'm not!) I would be all over TLC, for putting the show on in December, and not on now. On perhaps that is TLC, idea, to get bad ratings, so they don't have to film any more.
Hmm--maybe Kate and Steve can apply to be on the show.

Milo can't grow up and take responsibility her queen didn't tell her how to.
On the show, Dating Naked, a girl is suing the show because "they" the show, showed too much of her on the show! WHAT???
Oh, my! Then why did you sign on the dotted line to do it for?
Just think of the editing team getting to see all of that and the world.
You did it to your own self.
Many good actors are now filming shows in venues like Amazon, Netflix, etc. Amazon has a new show called "Hand of God" staring Ron Perlman and Dana Delany.

In addition to Hand of God, Amazon Studios has produced four other pilots, including one called Red Oaks, starring Paul Reiser, Jennifer Grey and Richard Kind. It is a coming-of-age show set in the 80s - so there is a lot of BIG hair!
Viewer feedback on Amazon will determine which of the 5 shows is actually picked up.
Wouldn't you hate to be the "not-a-nanny" babysitter/housecleaner/spy that had to clean the "box" after kate and Steve?

What ever happened about the gingerbread house that kate refused the kids to eat when they made it or bought it? The nanny just fed it to them. kate would of noticed it gone. I wonder what she said about it when or if she confronted the nanny about it.
I wonder if Inspector Gadget was on the job or kept it under wraps.
Reminds me of Shoka outside and her petting Nola? That is sociopathic behavior.
Agree with you, get off twitter, the December time slot for a back to school and summer vacation show is... Bizarre. TFMJG is boring. Definitely a filler show.
Meanwhile, another season of DWTS is coming our way! Cast includes CARLTON from The Fresh Prince! Yes, Alfonso Ribeiro will be on the show! Along with Antonio Sabato Jr what a hunk! Lolo Jones fills the Olympic contestant spot! Janel Parrish fills the ABC-Disney starlet spot! She is on Pretty Little Liars on ABC Family. Lea Thompson takes the female star of the eighties/nineties spot. Its rumored a Duck Dynasty teen, the one who has modeled, will take the realty TV celeb spot. Other rumored participants include ”a YouTube sensation” Bethany Mota, and a Nascar driver Michael Waltrip, Jonathan Bennett from” Mean Girls”, and filling the geriatric but funny spots will be designer Betsey Johnson and comedian Tommy Chong. Maybe Cheech will be in the audience!
PA Dutch Mom (#6), TFW used that expression back when J & K
were supposed to accompany all 6 kids on individual special days.
Jon went to all of them, but K skipped all 3 of the boys' days, saying
she didn't want to have to go "hither, thither and yon" to these
outings. I think she also threw in something about the boys
needing more one-on-one time with their father. I wasn't even
on to her yet and thought, hmmmm, how come she don't like to
spend time with her sons?

I thought 'hither, thither and yon' was an expression from nursery rhymes like long ago and far away...maybe it us a regional thing, though! Weird anyway as an excuse, and typical Kate not wanting to be with the boys.
OT Little People - the oldest boy has graduated from a photography school and is working with a friend doing weddings in their hometown. He will be getting married on the farm (for another episode). The little twin is still working at an indoor soccer school and is engaged to a normal sized girl who has been on the show for a long time.
Moly left town to get away and I don't know if she will ever be back.
Their house is a mess. Matt wanted to get a cleaning lady and she said
she did not want anyone messing with her stuff. The boys slept on mattresses without sheets.
They are separated and Matt lives in an immaculate building on the farm.
I would not eat any of the food from her dirty kitchen.

@Kateplusmy8 Oh my >> #CelebPhotoHacking !! Sure was glad 2see that U were NOT on that list! LOL #NotTheKindOfThingYouWouldDo :)
