Discussion Thread: Gosselins in Space 12/20/2016

Gosselins in Space
The Gosselins travel to Alabama to go to Space Camp! Kate and the kids explore all NASA has to offer and become astronauts for the day. Will the family get along long enough to complete their missions? 60 Min.

"Kate is so ridiculous saying that Christmas is her one day per year when the kids are busy and she can do housework."

**************************************************************

Really? What does she do the rest of the year?

Tucker's Mom said...

How can she complain about having to cook so many pounds of bacon every morning when she's the only one there to be fed?

Cara can roll the lint off her clothing as Mady yammers on.

Tucker's Mom said...

There's another episode? Geez. I thought this was the last one.

Oh, noooo....they have to conclude with "game night" with Collin so people think he's returned home ;-)

I love how at the end one of the kids says "let's get these (fake boulders) for our back yard" and she says "yes we'll just have them delivered honey" as if that is the most RIDICULOUS thing in the world. Which it would be if you forget the crooked houses, the deck, the toy cars, the motorcycles, the solar panels, and on and on that were magically delivered. That's what these kids expect.

Oh and M was bitching about just wanting to turn back during the tour. SHeesh

*************************************************************

Of course! Doesn't Kate grant them their wishes all the time?

Why, I would not be surprised that idea on her TLC bucket list
already...

Tucker's Mom said...

Excellent comment above!
Kate's fears are real, I can see that. I would not lose my ever-loving sh*t over and over again in front of my kids. Just wouldn't.
After Kate saw herself in that tower jump and how much stress she caused her children, you'd think she would sit out the things that cause her to freak.
Or, she should take whatever it was she was taking on the balloon ride. Well, not as much, but a therapeutic dose to take the edge off and blunt the panic attack so it doesn't reach the threshold it reaches where she's hyperventilating and crying uncontrollably.
It very unfair to the kids.

Kate's Fetid Soul said...

Tucker's Mom said... 181
She's so wrapped up in her fears, etc... that she is holding her children hostage. They are going to really blossom when they leave that nest.

*******
I just cringed when Kate berated her daughter for slowing down in front of her. It's like driving. You keep enough space and pay attention so you don't rear-end someone.
She's the problem, but the poor kid gets castigated.

**********************************************************

You hit it on the nose- SHE'S the problem.
She will never be at fault, everyone else is wrong...

If that isn't a type of mental illness, I don't know what is.

Tucker's Mom said...

"Kate you are a disgrace in front of your children. After all the expensive excursions TLC has paid for where you have had the opportunity to face YOUR over-dramatic fears (bungee jumping for eg.,) you still act like a childish moron in front of your children.
******
Except for the 2 remaining boys, they are all so unaware of just how lucky they are. None seems to really appreciate all of the amazing opportunities they get to experience.
I can imagine that having to do it all with a film crew could suck the fun out.

Tucker's Mom (#4), I wonder if TFW might bow out of that last tweet party, to avoid any "oh, good, C's back!" comments she might be deluged with. In fact, if the ratings sink under half a million tonight, she might realize the party's over and not bother pretending to want to interact with the fans for even one more week.

JoyinVirginia said...

We did a Segway tour on Hilton Head Island last year, at the Coastal Discovery Museum. Easy to learn to drive the thing, lots of fun. I was slow, because I'm slow and cautious, nothing wrong with that!

RIP Carrie Fisher. Loved her and loved the interviews where she brought Gary her dog! A true advocate for mental health treatment.

Kate's been ignoring all questions wondering where Collin is or if he's home. She'll just give her b.s. word salad answer that he's chugging along, blah blah.
You know, where words come out of her pie hole, but she actually never manages to make a declarative sentence...

That's how I am on a jet ski! I can't get myself to gun it. I've never been on a Segway, but am looking forward to it.
Looks like fun!
I don't think I'll look and act like I'm having a root canal when I ride it!

NJGal51 said...

No mention from TFW about her live tweet party tonight and no one on her timeline is asking.

just wondering said...

I just sent off a message to TLC and the little "pick your program to comment on" did not include the hateful K8ate. I had to choose "other."
By golly, I do believe she is done!

Layla said...

Next week is the twins' 16th birthday. I predict that it will be the lowest-rated episode of the season. Even fans do not like to watch Mady and Cara. So who is the genius who thought it would be a good idea to have an entire episode centered around them? Oh, right, that would be the producer named Kate.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Has TFW announced a Twitter party yet for tonight?

JoyinVirginia said...

Tuckers Mom, we were laughing and having a terrific time on the Segways! We had a fun instructor. And it was just me, the hubby, and another couple. We were on "off-road" Segways with extra wide tires, and got to check out some spots not on the regular tour. We had plenty of time to explore.
Ive never been brave enough to try a jetski.

localyocul said...

Wait, Collin is on tonight's episode? I thought it was the same trip as space camp? He wasn't there...did they take two trips down South?

Tucker's Mom said...

No tweet party announcement? Milo's back, so she can populate the moribund timeline ;-)

Kate's Fetid Soul said...

I have a prediction for tonights fiasco on TLC-

Kate ruins the parasailing adventure for her kids.
They all should have been laughing, and enjoying themselves,
but instead spent the entire time watching their emotionally stunted mother shaking & crying.

There. You can save your valuable brain cells for something more
important...

You're welcome.

"When I saw one of the tup girls call Aaden "shorty" and yank him out of the way, I saw Jon's parenting right there.
Jon has always taught the boys to never touch a girl. Never. Aaden and Joel are very kind boys and I can see Jon and his fathering in them."

******************
It's interesting you mention that. I always felt like Jon teaching the boys to NEVER touch a girl was kind of... I don't know how to describe it.

In a general example, what if a man is with a woman who is not only emotionally, but physically abusive? Is he supposed to just sit back and take the abusive? Either way, I just don't think it was right for him to say "I don't care if they're trying to kill you, you don't ever touch a girl". So what are they supposed to do then? This is just based on my own personal opinion.

Sorry if this goes off topic a bit but it is something I always thought about

We rode jet skis in Grand Cayman-went to a stingray reef. It really is an amazing feeling being out on the open water.

Yup, that sums it up. But, I say watch the clip. Kate's hysteria is epic. Such a shame for the kids.

Defend themselves, but not unleash their considerable might to beat them back.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Just wondering (#14), oh my, the show isn't even listed? Imagine going from TLC's Golden Girl to "Other." Now she knows how the poor Professor and Mary Ann felt on the first season of "Gilligan's Island," and were only billed as "and the rest!"

High Sodium Content said...

Ratings should be way down again tonight. Even those on FB that have been watching today have tuned out because of her. She used to have fb fans, but hardly a few positive comments. People are sick of her.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Maybe the kids are with Jon and TFW skipped town? She sure wouldn't bother tweeting if she was off getting pampered somewhere. Heck, she could've already been away on Christmas when she posted her Norman Rockwell holiday fantasy.

Jeanne said...

I don't have the episodes straight. I think there was a game night filmed way back last winter, maybe around the time of the blizzard. That would include Colin. Since everything is out of order, it would look like Colin is back. I don't even know for sure if they'll show it.

We have a tricky climate right now. Men have faced prosecution for fighting back after a woman hit them. Maybe Jon just wants them to be non-violent. I don't know. But if you're going to teach your kids not to hit, teach all of them!! It's not right the way the girls are allowed to treat the boys.

jamezvader1194 said...

You know if she's toast this time around,i wonder if her fans will do riots at Walmart like Barb did when the show was 1st cancelled.If she some how gets another season,someone wondered if she would have something over TLC's heads.I always thought the thing that Kate had over TLC was guilt.I remember when the show was 1st cancelled Kate was crying on interviews about a "purse full of bills"and how she could no longer support her kids.Almost like TLC were the evil ones for taking food out of her kids mouths.

You know , Kate , it is not impressive at all when you make a fool of your self over trivial things like bugs and water and docks ! You are a MOTHER and you should learn to internalize some some of the things that scare you for the sake of the kids !! I've heard them say several times how embarrassing it is to them and eventually they will quit wanting to do things with you if you don't learn how to control yourself !!! It's all part of being a mom and sometimes you just have to bite the bullet and roll with the punches ! " I don't think so " or "no thank you "
work a lot better than screaming like a banche ! You have no idea how ridiculous you look and the things you get upset over are ridiculous ! Please , if not for yourself , for your children learn to control your emotions ! Internalize !!! It's not hard !!!

Typical of the comments on TFW's FB page. Three hours to go until showtime and she still hasn't made an appearance to announce her live Twitter party. Milo hasn't asked about it either. Maybe TFW will feign an illness and claim she was too sick to tweet.

Layla said...

I never say no to a drinking game, but...I still refuse to watch. I'll rely on those who do watch to post the eye rolls and I'll do the drinking. With the number of eye rolls going on between Kate, Mady, and Cara, we better make sure we don't have to drive that night.

High Sodium Content (29),
Tonight might just be her last chance for decent ratings this season. TLC has done some promotion, People mag has done some promotion, here was a marathon, people can stay up late. Next week will be bad (twins' birthday). The finale--that's a hard one to call. More people tend to watch finale episodes, plus Collin will be on. We'll have to wait and see on that one.

jamezvader1194 said...

@High Sodium Content You know what i love?There was a Kate fan who was bragging some time ago about how Kate has over 1 million facebook followers and yet with the shows ratings as it is.Its clear to me that either those fans have been long gone or from what i herd you can buy facebook followers much like twitter and IG.Either TLC(since Kate said TLC runs the FB page)has been buying followers or those fans have bailed on her.Hell i haven't seen one post by TLC ever reached past 10,000 likes even when its been posted for a while.

I don't think anyone's going to be saying, "how high?" when Kate says, "jump!" anymore. She'd have major cajones to ask again that people post public signs to support her show. I think people would rather post signs that say, "Where is Collin?".

Layla said...

Oh wow, K+8 is an "other" now? That's funny! I wonder when that happened. I looked at TLC's twitter, and LPBW and Outdaughtered each have two pictures posted to promote tonight's shows. There is a short mention of K+8--just one-- and no pictures to promote tonight's show.

Kate's quiet. Even Milo doesn't seem to know where she is. No mention of a twitter party. Hmmmmm

Jeanne (31),

True, I understand that but I don't think it was necessarily the right thing to teach them. But Joel and Aaden seemed to have taken on Jon's personality. Calm, chill, laid-back. But I do agree that ALL of the children should've been taught not to hit each other. That is for damn sure.

Susan1956 said...

So after tonight's episode, there are 2 shows left? The twins' birthday and some kind of game night/clip show? Who thinks that the twins will be given either a car each or at least 1 car to share? Which they will have bought themselves? Unless Katie traded in her Audi to buy their car(s), it will fall very flat with viewers. Just more of the 1% lifestyle with Katie bemoaning the time that has passed, there are now 3 drivers in the family, the high cost of car insurance, etc.

Last time TLC does canceled Kate, she kept quiet except for pictures, tweets, etc. If there's truly no chance TLC will ever film her again and in light of the church picture, will she try to get on the UP channel? Will she try a pity tour, complaining that the big, bad, TLC network seduced her with $, trips, and home improvements?

I am more convinced than ever (kudos to the poster who called it) that she downplayed and hid the issues with Colin as much as possible, especially the fact that he was taken out of the home, presenting it as a fait accompli and TLC had no choice but to continue filming (whether due to lack of other shows to film or Katie downplaying Colin's length of treatment). TLC was smart enough to hold off airing the episodes until Katie & Kate Coyne forced their hand with the People cover/interview. At that point, TLC probably said f--- it, deciding to let the chips fall where they may. I truly think TLC is done with Kate, at least for a very long time if not forever. I also think the family court system is going to/already has lowered the boom on her, will give custody of at least Colin to Jon and make it very clear that visitation of all the children with Jon is to happen. Again, if Katie is found guilty of child abuse of any of the children, she can lose her nursing license.

Last, but not least I don't think that the girls are pushing/hitting, shoving the boys when they are with Jon. I'm not excusing any of the girl's violent behavior towards their brothers, but they and the boys know they can get away with it at Kate's house.

There will always be those who enjoy the show, think Kate is funny, her antics and attitude is amusing, and one just has to wonder why this is so. How can someone find her arrogance, her condescending attitude, her rudeness and her screaming "funny." I wonder if those fans are like that in their day to day living.

barbgilmer1@kateplusmy8 Cringeworthy? People that means "EARPLUGS" LOL 😂 on #KatePlus8 #TLC

miloandjack2016 Ive been to #GulfShores many times! Haha. .at least we both appreciate the same kind of beach beauty & quiet! Now we need to plan a #PlayDate w/your furbabies & mine at the beach! Are you even up for that? #WetSandyDogs. LOL 😋 @kateplusmy8

Well that's stupid. Just watch the show. She is cluttered, disorganized, and the house always looks "messy". She needs help with her messiness and hoarding, not the other way around.

Why in the world would K8 be rushing around trying to "get lots done" before the show? Kids are on break, dinner must have been finished hours ago--is she talking about getting a case of vino chilled in time? Getting that popcorn + surprise into a 7 containers? I wonder if Kate DM'd her and told her to cool it, LOL.

Geez, Milo, get a grip. LOM will have to make a trip to the store to stock up on the Depends.

She's something else, isn't she? In her Twitter profile, she says that Milo is her cat; Jack is her dog. What about Katie Irene, the adopted dog? There's no mention of her. You'd think that she would at least mention her somewhere in her profile. She certainly was in the throes of giddiness when she adopted her on Kate's birthday. That's one time I was really worried for Kate's safety. Milo was insane that night. I mean, more so than usual.
