DVD Reviews of Jon & Kate Plus Ei8ht, Seasons One & Two
DVD Review: The Gosselins: Love Them or Hate Them
Summary: 4 Stars
I discovered the Jon & Kate Plus 8 show after they were featured on Oprah in February, 2008. I quickly became addicted to watching it, and I would venture to say that most people who watch it have opinions about Jon, Kate and their kids. Another reviewer, 'Americanlife-American Dreams,' did an excellent job of describing the episodes in a nutshell. I have no idea how I would cope with the stress, financial burden, chaos, and confusion if I had twins and sextuplets. That being said, I'd like to offer my list of 'Best of' and 'Worst of' moments of the show:
Biggest Kate Meltdown: At Disneyworld, when the kids all got ice cream (in what was probably 80-90 degree heat) which started melting down (the ice cream didn't 'melt down' as fast as Kate did!) their clothes, Kate had a fit, took all the ice creams from the kids and told the kids they could have some if it were fed to them. I love what Jon said later in the interview chair, 'I would have just let them have it, let the ice cream get all over them!'
Second Biggest Kate Meltdown: On their skiing trip to Utah, Kate starts crying because their plane is diverted to Idaho because of bad weather.
Most Embarrassing Moment: When they are Christmas shopping with all the kids, and Kate berates Jon twice for being in the wrong place, saying he was, 'Playing with toys instead of doing his job.'
Best 'Way To Go, Jon' Moment: When Jon is loading up the van after the Christmas shopping trip, and he tells Kate how she made him feel in the store, he said, 'I felt like a fr**ken dog.' And later, during their interview, she did not even apologize, all she said was that 'I don't notice anyone when I'm in a store.'
Sweetest Moment: Leah and Joel, and Hannah and Collin holding hands in the dentist's chair during their first dentist appointment.
Weirdest Moment: Excited Kate taking a picture of one of the sextuplets (Leah or Alexis) with her first 'deposit' in the potty!
Biggest 'Oops' Moment: Kate gets badly sunburned on the surprise Florida vacation she planned for Jon's 30th Birthday present because she doesn't like the greasiness of sunblock!
Fastest Recovery From Altitude Sickness: The first morning in Utah, after Kate had been vomiting all night, and wasn't able to help Jon dress the kids that morning, it seems as if she and Beth went to the spa that same day, and Kate seemed just fine! (Just to give the benefit of a doubt, it could have been film editing that made it seem that the spa visit was the very same day as her being sick, I don't know for sure)
Meanest Mom Moment: Kate not allowing the kids to use markers when they went to the Crayola Factory. Kate says, 'They wear nice outfits when we go out, and if you have one kid getting marker stains on their clothes, it's not a big deal, but when you have 8, that's a whole day I get to spend in the laundry room, getting stains out.'
Bravest Moment: Kate showing the world her pre-tummy tuck 'jowls of the
dog, butt in the front' belly!
Biggest Germ-O-Phobe Moment: On the way to Disneyworld, when they stayed in a motel along the way, and Kate would not let the kids walk on the carpet without shoes!
Biggest Question: Although Jon has somewhat explained the absence of his parents in their life, (his dad is deceased and his mom has remarried, has a job, etc.) Kate's explanation of the absence of her parents in their life brings up more questions. Kate has said that the kids' grandparents are 'not a part of their everyday life, but they have others like, Nana Janet, who love their 8 kids.'
Kate's Favorite Word: To Jon, to get his attention, 'HELL--LOW!!'
I have to give Kate credit for doing the best she can with her job of being the stay at home mom of 8 kids, I give Jon credit for putting up with Kate, I give Aunt Jody credit for doing her best to help Kate, even though Aunt Jody has 4 kids herself. I think Kate's true nature can be seen at times when she laughs while she and Jon are in the interview chair, or when she and Jon are taking one of the kids out on that kid's special day. I also wish that Jon and Kate didn't play up to or talk to the camera so often, just let the events unfold naturally instead of commenting about it at the time, they can do that later in the interview chair.
All in all, I love watching the show, although Dr. Laura says once the cameras are in your home, it's no longer reality...
