Jon and Kate Plus 8! Dad's Out As Momma Gosselin To Continue Show Without Him
Filed under: TV News > The Gosselins
Wow!
He's been fired!
We're sure both Kate Gosselin is thrilled with this news!
TLC made a shocking announcement this morning that as of November 2, Jon will no longer be appearing on Jon And Kate Plus 8 and the show will be changed to simply Kate Plus 8!
Now Jon won't have to rush back from trips and appearances to hang out with his kids to film and Kate essentially has her very own show.
A source close to the show says: “Given Jon’s recent antics, there was no way the show could continue to portray him as a doting Dad, not while all this other crap was going on."
Wonder if the Paula Deen show is still in the works for Kate?
Will U be watching the new Kate Plus 8?

Sarah Palin Memoir Release Moved Up To November
Is That You LiLo???
douche, that;s awesome
Hahah wooh!! I might start watching again..
TEAM KATE AND KIDS!
I'm glad he got fired. I think she should continue on with this show but do another show too. I didn't like her back in the day, but now I see she was just being a cranky B**** because she had to deal with that idiot Jon. Team Kate fo sho!
…if he misses her harpie-like , shrill voice I have an old bat that he can call for his 'fix.'
Good riddance to the sleazeball husband but who watches this drivel? Never seen a minute and don't plan to waste my time
Yes now that Jon is gone what an ASSHOLE Team Kate
Finally! He is such an idiot…he deserved this all along…
I will start watching it again now that he's gone. I'm glad TLC will no longer be supporting that jackass! And no matter what they say, Kate is an awesome mother.
Ah yes, a real representation of the American family. Single mother who can't afford to take care of her vast amount of kids. And the father is a deadbeat. That's exactly what the US needs to see in a time like this. CANCEL THIS SHOW!
I never watched even one episode, who gives a fuck, PUKEEEE!
oh you know Jon is never goingt to see the kids now… it ws all for the show before. no he has no reason to see them
Stopped watching it a year ago. Don't care. Why they continue to attempt to whitewash Kate is beyond my comprehension.
Probably…Since my husband just pulled a JON on me and my 2 and 3 year old daughers. He blames it all on me but he just wants to party, The show might help
With Jon out of the picture, who will Kate be a shrill twat to? Her kids?
HELL YES!
I am glad to hear this. It is clearly obvious now why Kate had to treat this butthead like a child … he needs constant controlling in order to be the father and husband he should be on his own. I'd act EXACTLY like her if I had eight children to care for and have to worry about his need to party, sleep with other women, neglect his duties as a father and generally be an idiot. May this man end up in the gutter. The kids don't need this kind of poor parenting skills in their lives.
Actually, TLC said that Jon will still make appearances on the show, just not as often..
Finally, TLC got rid of Jon!!!. Now he's free to continue acting like a 16 year old. I will watch Kate plus 8.
Kate just keeps insisting on making money off of her kids. She needs to let them have their own lives now out of the spotlight but NOOOOO she wants money money money… this craziness needs to stop now for the kids sake!!
I was wondering what was taking so long to do this. Can you pleeeasse stop promoting this fame whore now?
What a douchebag. He doesn't have a brain in his head. If he kept his mouth shut, and his wick in his pants, he could still be getting a paycheck. Obviously he thinks his talent alone will get him his own show-yeah right. Kate was much smarted than him, but to tell you the truth she needs to go away too- I'm sick of all of them.
YES i WOULD JUST TO SUPPORT KATE AND THOSE KIDS, JON'S AND IDIOT!!
Here's a thought……. cancel the dam show altogether FFS!
ok take a poll…nobody fucking cares anymore. This show hit its peak…
hell yeah…screw jon!
LOL!! I might just watch an episode now!
about time! Kate may have an abrasive personality but she sets a much better example for her kids that Jon…now if only she could get full custody..although if Jon keeps partying the way he does and bringing his whores around the kids, it wouldn't shock me if it happened sooner rather than later…TEAM KATE..
(ps…what kind of a SELFISH DICK HEAD introduces his kids to his new gf (skank)only a few months after annoucing the divorce…anyone with brains would know to give the kids time to adjust….)
(pps what kind of a SKANKY WHORE fucks around with her dad's clients (for fame obviously cause Jon ain't no looker and he certainly doesn't have a nice personality!) knowing that it could put his medical practice in jeopardy…I wouldn't go see this guy knowing what kind of morals he's raised his daughter to have!!!!)
WHO THE HELL CARES?!?!??!
Hell No.
But I didn't watch to begin with.
Awesome!! Jon's such a douche and pretty much yells at the kids the whole time he's with him or at least thats the way it seems. Yay Kate, I'll watch
OHHHHHH SNAPPPITY DOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
so kate can run around doing all those interviews and shit, and jon cant go out make some money? either way kates still a bitch. they should just end the show all together.
Brilliant!
Never have. Never will
i bet john is going to file for spousal support.. what a lazy douche
No I won't watch and I still don't think this move will increase the ratings. Just pull the plug already.
who even cares anymore? they should've cancelled the show and called it a day. pathetic that kate would even want to continue.
LOL now what JON!?
Now that Jon is gone, I will def watch =)
I wish that whole show would go off the air. They are just a bunch of media whores and the show is B-O-R-I-N-G anyway.
Oh Please - Everyone that is saying she's a famewhore, exploiting her kids, etc. - you are just being very one-minded. If a television company were to offer you $75K per episode to film your life with your kids - you wouldn't take up the offer?! That is money that can be put towards your kids future. I personally am NOT a fan of Kate, but, I can understand her wanting to make more money. There is nothing wrong with that as long as the kids are well taken care of.
umm…Jon said last year he didn't want to be a part of the show anymore. Please stop reprinting press releases from Kate as actual news. She wants to continue whoring out her kids for money just confirms my opinion that she is not only abusive to her ex husband but that she is an icey cold woman with absolutly no concern whatsoever for her children's well being.
WOW, WOW, WOW! Love the quote from a source close to the show. I haven't watched the show in a while, but yes I am team Kate on this one. I used to feel bad for the way she spoke to Jon, but it's clear she had to. He was irresponsible as far as organization and common sense when it came to those kids. Yes she maybe a little over the top, but no one can say she doesn't have those kids in check, well fed, well clothed and well educated. He probably had a 20% hand in that. Now he's free to party on with his sleazeball gfs. So much for the "my kids are a priority. I do what I do for my kids." I never knew party & tramp hopping benefits the kids.
Bahahahahaha awww yeah douchebag!
I promise to not watch until Kate is out of the picture. Would love to follow the saga of these tykes as they make their way through the child protective services system however.
Being a good father is not just playing with your kids and being the "cool" parent. Being a good father is setting a good example for them by your behavior, something he has not done, therefore, I would not say he is a "good" parent. Does he love his kids? Sure? Is he doing the right thing by them? No. I'm glad he's gone, although I'm sure he will still be in their lives. He should have been more mindful of what channel broadcast his show! It was supposed to be family entertainment. Best of luck to them all.
Re: lisakindel – You're an idiot, Kate claimed in the divorce that they had been separated for 2 years. It was beyond time if what she said was true…and if it wasn't true then it shows that Kate has no problem lying when it suits her. If you say you would act like Kate if you had 8 kids then you are a psycho abusive nutcase just like her. Remmeber, she bought those kids, they weren't an accident.
But on the bright sid,e Kate will have enough money to go out and get even more plastic surgery.
Great. One more example of how Men/Dads are disposable. Sure, the guy is a d-bag, but men are no longer taught how to be real men by their fathers. This is the femanization of America coming home to roost. Makes me sick.
Thank go they got rid of him!
OMG! hahahaha. nice move TLC! seee youuu later jon!! muchhh!
*
well not like jon was ever a big oart of the show to begin with.
Its a good move considering the only fans left are nasty bitchy moms like herself.
lol hilarious
I'll be watching. She seems much less stressed and bitchy after the divorce. Kate + 8 is an improvment!!!
WHO CARES ANYMORE?!?!?1?!??!!??!?!
thank god; ! and yesss i will be watching [=
What a joke, saw the show last night pathetic. By January there will be no audiance and no show who wants to watch an egomaniac try and act like a mother. Finallythose kids will be left alone and Katezilla will be looking for work!!
FUCK NO, WHOEVER WATCHES THESE PIECE OF SHIT PARENTS ARE ADDING TO THE PROBLEM, DCFS NEEDS TO STEP IN!
haha I might just watch it now , can't wait to hear his lame excuse that he didn't get fired and quit for some shitty reason! Why hasn't Kate filed for sole custody of these children already is what i really want to know.
Re: EccentricMetric – i'm with you on this one! this whole thing makes me sick! did anyone not see the show before they got really really faymous???? please! if it were the other way around and jon was abusing kate then we shuld hate on him and call him a douche but since she is a woman it's ok to be verbally abusive??? she is the piece of shit and is wanting ppl to feel sorry for her FUCK HER! perez you don't know what your talking about! SHE MADE HER BED! NOW 'LIE' IN IT!
TEAM JON!
Kate is still a vile bitch!! Those poor kids
ABOUT TIME!!! Yes I will watch it… Kate rocks… jon is a douche!
HA HA by PA law Kate has to pay spousal support 1 year for ever 3 they were married!!! Plus she has to cough up all the $$ she hid away!!!!
its about time!
yay! that makes me so happy
Kate is an awesome mother and that is why I started watching the show. She can be very inspirational and motivating, plus she always has good ideas. Ewww! I wonder what John is going to do to get attention now?! Please, I hope no one gives him his own show!
Enough of the fake Kate and absent Jon. The show has run its course. I will laugh while the ratings drop!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Re: Spindoc – AMEN! ALL THIS TALK OF HER BEING THE BETTER PARENT PISSES ME OFF! SHE IS THE ONE NEVER AROUND HER CHILDREN! SHE IS OFF WHORING THEM IN HER 'BOOKS'…SO WHAT PEOPLE ARNT ALLOWED TO DATE AFTER BEING RELEASED FROM JAIL? GO LOOK FOR THE RECEIPT YOURSELF KATE!
Hell the fuck NO!!!!!
I don't like either of them, but Jon is a douche, no doubt. But at least, Kate is with them more and for the most part, takes care of them. I just care about the kiddies, they are too cute.
Yay, TEAM KATE! I think I might give the show another go just to support Kate.
~
Yay!!
~
Bye Jon!!!
~
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!
~
YAY!!!!!!!! Good for her!! I'll watch again.
He's been saying he wanted out of the show for a while. Who cares! I couldn't live with Kate either. She was such a bitch to him!
Go Kate! I mean seriously, Jon is beyond Douche. I cannot think of another word to describe him. I must sya, I thought she was a bit "snippy" at first but now I know why……she was dealing with an adult child and 8 actual children. He will be crying the blues quite soon, writing some lame boo hoo book like "skreech" and working at AM/PM…..Do you thin Hailey will still ocntinue with the "soulmates" then???????
Re: Bö!!!SEMICOLON!!!rte Petrarchia –
agreed and thank you. Who really gives a shit anymore? Why are these people still in the media spotlight daily??????
Now they just need to fire kate (cancel the show) in other words put this out of it's misery. their 15 minutes is up, get over it TLC
Re: Bö!!!SEMICOLON!!!rte Petrarchia – haha that really is sad
it would be better if Kate raised the kids herself w/ out hired help……. it would be more a real reality of what single motherhood is like. She hasn't a clue!
Jon needs help……… he needs to grow up, get counselling and start his life over again, there's still hope he can change around, but he needs to change his company too.
The sad part here is the victims……… the children………. they will hear about this stuff the rest of their lives!
i have watched this show since it basically started. it's sad to see how things turned out. but i'm glad Jon is gone. his voice annoys me. and he is a horrible parent with horrible priorities. TEAM KATE.
He is a GIANT crybaby with Downs Syndrome. Now that he has nothing to do except Hailey lets see just how large he can make his alcohol bloat in his gut get. That's a show I'd watch. He is a dirty toilet. Pooooooooor Jon. His wife was so mean to him while she was raising his 8 kids by herself.
I just LOOOVE how you always like to edit the information to mae it sound the way YOU want it to. As was actually reported by REAL journalists, he was NOT fired, and WILL still continue to appear on the show, but not as often. Maybe you can at least TRY to report something correctly at least ONCE a year!
EWH! no. kate is a vile disgusting bitch. and she needs to do something with that hair. i truly feel sorry for those kids.
YEAH!! Team Kste plus 8.. Screw of Jon…go play with TrainWreck's new titays…LOSER
aol has a clip about jon saying sowie to kate cuz he was hasty with the divorce I guess that will be tomorrows news here.
LOL!!! Its funny how we were joking about "Kate Plus 8" a few months ago and now its a reality!!!! I was really hoping the show would be named "Kate Plus 8 and Jon Every Other Weekend" just for the comedic value. I cant wait for next Monday's episode where she get her lablemaker and organizes stuff and then throws Jon's CRAP into a cardboard box, lol!!!!!
I would love to see handle these kids without any assistance. She's a pampered cun*t.
it should just be called K8 hahahah
just another chapter in "the script"!!! Who cares!
The show should be canceled all together!! Enough already!! TLC should NOT be continuing the show. And I will NOT be watching that circus. Poor kids!
WIll I watch "Bitch plus 8"….no thanks, I'll be cleaning my toenails
So what? I've never seen this show and I don't plan to start. Congrats to both Jon and Kate for being stupid and having way too many kids together.
NO… The show needs to be taken off the air…
Hell no.
It gives me more reason to watch the show the reason I stopped is because of Douchbag MacGosselin
yes! i will definitely start watching again now
www.reinventingjopageri.com
Team Kate all the way.
It's about fucking time!!
the only time i turn the show off is when he's on… i love to watch the kids grow… as i have none of my own, it's entertaining to see them, and they appear to be as happy as any normal kid! go kate!
I think that was a long awaited move for tlc. He has truly been an embarrassment to his family. I will continue to watch the show. I think Kate has done a wonderful job with her kids. Good luck Kate!
*
Yeah !!! Goodbye Beyond Douche Dad Jon Boy
*
So glad to hear the show will be renamed Kate Plus 8.
*
TLC actually said it would continue its "exclusive" relationship with Jon Gosselin and that he would continue to appear on the series but on a less regular basis. **** Once a year would be enough.
*
I'm sure Jon is drinking over this news because he just filed papers to delay his divorce.
*
“He woke up one morning, looked in the mirror and didn’t like the reflection,” Jon’s attorney, Mark Jay Heller, tells In Touch. “He realized he’d made some bad choices.”
*
Deanna - She was in Utah with Jon on Kate's birthday
Hailey - WTF is she doing with one of her father's patients?
Kate 2.0 - What happened to Jon's personal assistant ?
Stephanie - Doing the hired help! Wrong Wrong Wrong
Vegas Girl - a three way without condoms = STD
Saying he "despised" the mother of his children on national TV - So Low
cigarettes
alcohol
more alcohol
taking his dogs away and blaming Kate
Ed Hardy t-shirts - how long was it before Jon realized he was being used?
& more alcohol and cigarettes etc etc etc…………….
