Jon and Kate Plus 8 official Thread, Part 2!!

[madge]

Oh!! They're going shopping on this episode. Let's see if they thank the non-existant BROs in PA in the credits.

do they thank all the products/sponsors in every episode? I don't think I've ever seen Gymboree mentioned in the credits .. maybe Gymboree's deal is with Jon & Kate, and not the show?

and speaking of .. I wonder if the Gymboree gravy train has come to an end. It's been a while since I've seen the kids wear any new lines and they've :::gasp::: been wearing some things more than once.

I've never actually watched the credits, but I would guess it would be mentioned since they filmed in the store. I'll let you know in two minutes.

The bags they carried out were Banana Republic.

OK, they thanked JK in the credits and something else was below that, but I was reading too slow.

However, I'm 99% sure I got one of the bags hanging behind them (when they're checking out) for Christmas a year or so back, and it's from...BRO!!! Never noticed that before, but it just goes to show how obervant I can be when I'm trying to prove a point.

Anyone else ready for some of our own PennMama Drama, DIS style?

I was so busy trying to read the credits that I missed the bags. Duh!!

I don't think I've seen this episode .. I've heard about it, but never seen it. I was able to rewind it back to almost the beginning. Jeez, this show was so much more engaging in the early days. They were still just people.

I was just referring to someone claiming to have all this insider info being proven wrong.

Not real drama, just a similar circumstance.

I think people are entirely too wrapped up in where the Gosselin's shop, live, eat, work, vacation, etc. Who the heck cares? They are making money hand over fist these days between the show, books, appearances, etc. Why shouldn't they live a better lifestyle than they did before?

Because they're mean, horrible people, and they don't deserve it!!!

well, that's the premise of the show .. it's about all those things ... LOL

Why shouldn't they live a better lifestyle than they did before?

that's a very good question!

it was just Jon & Kate, and someone else...

someone who knows about these things - how much more $$ does it mean for Jon & Kate to be producers of the show? Isn't that a pretty big deal?

Probably the head of Banana Republic Outlets.

that's a good job to have! my friend Rodney was some sort of big deal with them for a while .. good discounts.

I agree, they certainly did a lot of "taking" from others to get where they are now. Being in the medical field, I honestly cannot picture Kate as a compasionate nurse. She isn't compasionate to her husband or kids so she will treat a stranger any better? This show should be over--its getting to be worse than some of the reality shows out there. The kids are adorable but let them have a normal childhood.

As a nurse myself, I have to say that I think she cares for her children with a tremendous amount of love and compassion. Especially in the older shows, where you saw more footage around the house and less "event" stuff. She is very patient with them considering the challenge of having so many of them. I'm not saying she's perfect, any more than I am, but I think your assumption is incorrect.

Maybe he knew my uncle! He worked with BR every now and then, but mostly Gap (my dream job...retail design...I have killer yard sales!! ).

maybe .. there is a Gap/ON/BR distribution center in Northern Kentucky (KILLER sales. ) and Rodney worked there .. in an office, not the warehouse. Not sure what he did, but he's not there any more.

Maybe not...don't think he was ever in Kentucky. Would have been funny, though.
