Breaking News: TLC Renames Show Kate Plus Eight

Tuesday – September 29, 2009 – 11:10am

Jon and Kate Gosselin's 10-year marriage has ended.

And so has their TLC reality show. Sort of.

TLC announced on Tuesday that the show will be renamed Kate Plus Eight, beginning Nov. 2.

It will continue to focus on the lives of the young Gosselin twins, 8, and 5-year-old sextuplets but with a deeper focus on Kate's role as a single mother.

"Given the recent changes in the family dynamics, it only makes sense for us to refresh and recalibrate the program to keep pace with the family," TLC president Eileen O’Neill said in a statement. "The family has evolved and we are attempting to evolve with it; we feel that Kate’s journey really resonates with our viewers."

She added that the network is in development on a Kate project for 2010.

Ratings for the show have been declining. Last week, the show dipped to a season-low of 1.7 million. (By comparison, the season 5 premiere in May attracted 9.8 million viewers.)

Lately, the two have given the impression that they want to branch out.

Kate, who guest hosted The View earlier this month, recently filmed a pilot for a daytime talk show with Paula Deen.

"I've been given the gift of gab, so why not use it?" she said at a women's conference earlier this month.

Jon also has shopping around a reality show called The Divorced Dads Club, costarring Michael Lohan, among others.

    Kate deserves a happier life without Jon. I can't believe what he's done to her. He doesn't think about his family just about himself..

    Eileen O'Neill has exploited the whole Gosselin family. She is an evil, nasty, greedy nobody.

    OMG - "focus on Kate's role as a single mother" - they've failed to mention her staff that take care of her every whim & wish...oh yeah and all those kids! I thought TLC was the Learning Channel not The Low Class network? What more can we learn from this show besides greed and arrogance will destroy a family?

    Once it is the Kate plus 8 show, I will return to watching. Featuring Jon is a joke. He is such a loser and I stopped watching once he flaunted his slutty women. Those kids and Kate deserve better. Good for TLC for kicking him off. Kate and the kids are what really matter. People bash Kate, but Jon is the one that cheated.

    Jon is going to go to LKL tonight - hopefully he won't make himself out to be even a bigger loser and jerk like he did with Chris Cuomo on ABC. He complained that Kate called him "lame" and "loser" -- call it what it is, it is what it is!!! Jon Gosselin grow up and become something instead of a deadbeat loser!!! Thank God his 15 minutes are FINALLY up!!

    Days after learning that TLC would continue with a new version of Jon & Kate Plus 8 that didn't include him as a major factor, the estranged husband of Kate Gosselin has demanded through his lawyers that the show cease production immediately or face potential criminal charges.

    Jon cried over being axed by tlc, so he had his attorney put a temporary stop on the Kate +8 show. What a dumb move on his and his new attorneys part. This move has back fired on him, I think he thought this would make him seem like a concerned father when it just proved he is a selfish childish little boy a tool I feel bad that those kids have someone like him as their father.
