TLC has recently announced that they’re refashioning the series Jon & Kate Plus 8, reducing half-Korean dad Jon Gosselin to a minor role in the series after their recent divorce.
You know, when it’s the year 2019 and we’re watching an old white lady with her six Asian looking teenagers on the twelfth season of Kate Plus 8, and our currently non-existent children look up to us to ask, “Daddy, why do those kids look Asian,” we’ll be able to look them in the eye and explain to them that a long time ago, there was a time when their daddy was still on the show; before he started wearing Ed Hardy and became a complete douchebag. Or not.
What next?
