 It's a good life, and it's theirs. August 14, 2008

I discovered this show while trapped in a Motel 6 in Iowa City prior to the worst Graduate School interview I've had in my entire life.
TLC was running a marathon (which they often did and do, and I'm thrilled with the habit) and I tuned in because there wasn't really anything else on... and I was charmed. So very, very charmed.
I don't like reality shows. That's not a hardline rule, but I'm deeply pressed to think of a single 'reality show' that I'll watch more than an episode or ten minutes of. I sat through four hours of this show, straight out the door, and look forward to new episodes. Why? Because of this show's sweetness. Moreover, of how it isn't glammed up or white-washed or scripted. It's, basically, a bunch of home videos of eight wonderful children and the two parents that are doing their best to make it work.
Honestly, the kids are adorable and funny and loud and just plain kids. They have melt downs and get dirty and silly and have moments that make me want to cry with the aching sweetness. This is their childhood laid out for people to watch and enjoy, but it's also so, so honest. None of the kids (or the parents) are perfect. They each deal with stressful situations the best they can, but at the end of the day - like the opening says - there's love and care and I think there are a lot of families who could learn a lesson from that.

This is a wonderful show my kids 3 & 7 and I love it. It's just good clean fun in a world of television shows that are full of foul language and questionable morals this is something we can enjoy as a family. I really hate the Kate bashing, I think she is a great mom and I challenge anybody to go through a day in her life without losing it completely.
SIMPLY REVIEWING THE PROGRAM September 18, 2008
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I DO NOT like reality shows, but this show has me mesmerized. When I can finally sit down for the day, the first thing I do is check TLC to see if this program is on. Thus, the reason I finally bought it on DVD. I can't imagine what it's like to raise 8 small children, 24 hours a day, then alone with cameras in my face watching my every move and hearing my every word. The children are well behaved (or as well behaved as children can be), Jon and Kate's personalities compliment each other, (she's extremely organized and he takes life as it comes along) and I thoroughly enjoy this program. When Season 3 is released in November, I'll be buying that as well.
Our family's favorite non-Disney show September 10, 2008

The Gosselins are a remarkable family who are willing to share their lives with the world. I admire Jon and Kate for their courage to be real in front of the cameras. Their show is so fun to watch because the they're all so adorable; and Jon and Kate always works things out no matter what mishaps they have to face. Although I admire them, I would not want to have to walk a mile in their shoes. Bringing up two sets of multiples (one set being sextuplets) is an overwhelming challenge that is deserving of many standing ovations.
Great show August 5, 2008

I really enjoy this show. I think it's very funny at times. I don't really like the way Kate treats her husband Jon. But I do think there household can be very stressful, and sometimes you don't mean to say things the way they come out. If you think you have a handful with your family of 2 or 3 kids you need to watch this show, and maybe you will rethink your opinion about your own household.
