Confession time: I have absolutely no idea who these Jon and Kate people are or what plus eight they have. Is it eight spider monkeys? Eight chimneys? Eight copies of The Secret? All right, I'm exaggerating -- I realize they have eight children. But all of a sudden Jon and Kate are everywhere and I feel like I have missed out
on some kind of pop culture phenomenon. The only hitch? I honestly don't care. First of all, I stopped watching TLC the first time they got rid of Paige Davis on Trading Spaces; it just felt like a betrayal. Second, watching a show with this many children stresses me out and makes me feel like I'm babysitting. Third (and this one makes me a bad person, I know), I like watching TV shows with younger, attractive people, and judging from the photos of Kate, with her odd wedge cut, female-softball-player-esque hairdo, I think this show falls out of my comfort zone. I liken my avoidance of this show to that of people who stay away from The Hills, one of my personal faves. But I get that it's not for everyone.
Am I the only one out there who doesn't care about Jon & Kate Plus 8? Or am I missing out? Speak to me, PopWatchers!
