Thank God.

Can John and Kate be doused in gasoline and burned to death now?

No, thank lower ratings.

I know they lost Left Eye, but who are the other nine people?

It won't be over until I can stand on line in the supermarket and not see one of their faces staring back at me from a tabloid.

The Angry Hand of God: Can John and Kate be doused in gasoline and burned to death now?

No, we still have a few more years of them being mentioned in passing with some odious fate attached to their name. Rumors of child abuse, spousal abuse, reconciliation, more break-ups, more failed business attempts, and possibly one more grab for sympathy that results in them milking their downfall for some extra cash.

Or when either of them commits suicide.

I can still be Thankful for the end of this series.
I can still be Hopeful that a carbon monoxide leak will kill the rest of the family before production starts on the next one.

Obligatory because it is a TLC thread:
[rant on]
Screw the channel. All you actually learn is why not to have in-vitro fertilization if you only want one more kid. How midgets live, how disgustingly obese people live, what wedding dresses and clothes to wear, what having 17 kids is like, etc. Or you just learn how far society has fallen. I think a better name would be "Clown Car Parenting and Shallow lifestyles" network

Too bad he had to go and get all pissy. They could have milked that show for at least two more seasons. Frankly, I used to think her constant sniping at the guy was scripted. It was the only thing that made the show worth watching- or at least it made the clips of the show on The Soup worth watching anyway.

 
Timmy the Tumor [TotalFark] 2009-11-20 11:17:26 AM  
it's not over, not even close--they're giving that harpy her own show in a couple months...we'll never get rid of her, she's like a 5'4" human version of genital herpes...just when you think that it's gone forever and you never have to think about it again BANG there's another painful eruption that forces you to remember how cruel the world can be.


/um, or so I've heard

There's about as much learning on TLC as there is music on MTV.

Oh, and I'm not too thrilled about Cartoon Network's ever-increasing list of live-action shows, while I'm at it.

And don't even get me started about Comedy Central playing Scrubs.

Discovery is improving, TLC should be nuked from space.

Only relatively. Waterfalls was what? 15 years ago? No Scrubs was just over ten.

This coupled with news of Oprah's show ending is wonderful, just wonderful. Maybe the cancellation of further Twilight movies could be on the horizon?

What if they made a TeeVee show and no one watched it? It would be kinda like this one I bet.

"We are focusing on the launch of Kate's new series [for] early spring," said Goldberg. "'Kate Plus 8' is not in production."

So we still have to endure this witch?

At this point they may as well finish the series. I want to see hordes of little girls traumatized by the whole violent-sex-demon-baby-thing.

 
Funk Brothers 2009-11-20 12:55:02 PM  
This is why we should never support things that are not self-sustaining.

I dislike the notion of breeders just to be attention whores and suck more money from taxpayers for their selfish worth.

If you're serious, you're lucky. I've seen only a few wife-induced episodes and it was horrible. It did make me feel better about my choice of spouse, however.

Discovery is still o.k. for the most part but they still need to ditch the extreme fishing shows.

Yeah, I don't get it. She was, seemingly, the least likable aspect of the J&K+8 show ... so they're going to give her her own show?

I can't wait for it to fail, just because she won't have anyone to blame but herself.

It's not over. If you read the article, Kate's getting her own show next year.

NOOOooooo!!!

Now it's gonna be just the biatch all the time!

I think Oprah watchers see her as a tough yet vulnerable single mother struggling with her adorable children...

Sure, a mean, bitter housewife and celebutard that needed countless surgeries to bring her up to "acceptable." By all means, dive right in. At least all her babby came out the side door.

At first I assumed that something must have happened to Chili.

Because Chili is a homonym for chilly. And "minus 10" is chilly.

So, you know, it would have been a kind of clever, if obscure joke.

Instead, I accidentally read something about these wastes of skin that have pervaded my once beloved TLC.
