DipitySkillful an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Nick Damian Wow - how low can Hollywood sink? Let's brutally destroy some family by putting them on camera and then feeding every tidbit of their lives into the media.If the kids don't grow up to be pshyco murders by the time they are 13, I will be surprised.What a boring show, a stupid show and a sad attempt at an introspect of people's personal life.Reality TV has got to stop now.It has surpassed the point of stupidity and has become a bore and mind-numbing to watch.There is nothing salvageable on this show and the fact that the tow parents are fighting constantly now over the money from this lousy production is sad and as uninspiring to read about and hear about as the show is itself.Just one more reason that TV shows suck!

Liandria I gave 2 stars out of 10... and i am being nice. When the season first started, I appreciated the show. They had a regular house, with regular jobs and regular cars. As the seasons go, the house goes bigger (and WAY bigger), the jobs are changing, the cars are changing, and their personality completely changed. In the beginning, Jon and Kate were explaining the difficulties of what it is to have so many children. Example: How Kate doesn't like how her body looks. Some days she would not have make up or have her hair done... and with the seasons, you realize that Kate had probably had a tummy tuck done, gets her hair done every day and had amazing make up, nice clothes and goes to the gym very often. Kate is a very bitter person and should learn to be nice and accept to be told how to do stuff. She is not the queen of the world. I have the Impression that now the show is more about what expensive stuff they go than their own family. Look how many trips they done; in my whole life, i never went to so many places... I find it pretty sad how much they show off their money now. Before they didn't... I am impressed they don't have an expensive car yet just for the couple...(maybe they do but they don't show it)The other thing I go annoyed with the show is how much religion is put in. Not everyone in the world is Christian... Their site is filled with religious stuff. Life ain't only about religion and the show should be neutral. Maybe Its because I am Canadian that i feel that way, but There is so many religion in this world that they shouldn't push it so much in their show. There is so much subject they could use than going to church and talk about it.So I Gave 2 stars because the kids are adorable and I am sure they have a better life than most of us. the only thing they don't have is now privacy. They should have privacy for their own safety...

FortiesFilmFanatic The wife is an obsessive control freak and the husband is spineless to put up with her crap. She screams at him in public.Kate won't let the kids have any fun for fear of making a mess. What is her problem. They have no friends or family left in their life because they have run everyone off.I used to like watching the show in the very beginning but the parents have changed. Even the kids attitudes are getting bad. Why do they subject the kids to the constant cameras and lack of privacy.If you check the message boards, it sounds like the parents are just in it for the money. They canceled a bunch of speaking engagements they had committed to with churches under the pretense of "needing to spend less time away from the kids" - just supposedly to have replaced them with new speaking engagements where they are charging $25,000 to appear.

winterbirch I thoroughly enjoy JON & KATE + 8. It's better than anything else on T.V.: educational and entertaining. Jon and Kate are excellent parents and the kids are darling. Kate is lovely and is so patient with the kids when disciplining them: she provides appropriate consequences without raising her voice. Jon is also a great husband and parent. Kate's teasing and interrupting Jon, however, is abusive and stymies communication. My mother's "playful" teasing wore down my dad. Maddie loves her mother and I think she is reacting to Kate's behavior, having to compete with her for her own identity. Jon's better at guiding the older girls. I just wanted to share this. I still love the show and am a faithful viewer.
