Will 'Jon and Kate Plus 8' become 'Kate Plus 8'?

Answer 1

It depends on who you ask. 'Kate Plus 8' is an entirely new reality show featuring Kate Gosselin and the children.

Some promotions tout this as the "return' of the Gosselins to reality television, but this is a new show with a different focus.

Filming for 'Jon and Kate Plus 8' was suspended when Jon Gosselin objected to the filming of his children during the divorce proceedings. At that same time, TLC was envision a future version of the show focusing on Kate and the children.

However, with all filming of the children suspended, TLC has turned its focus to a show featuring Kate Gosselin without the children.

In early February 2010, there were rumors released that Jon Gosselin was giving weigh under the tremendous financial pressure of the lawsuit with TLC and had entered into negotiations with the network and his ex-wife for a modified filming agreement that would include his children.

What does this all mean?

'Kate Plus 8' will debut on American television June 6, 2010. It will be an entirely new show focusing primarily on Kate Gosselin and the children. It is unlikely that Jon Gosselin will participate in the show, other than approving his children's work on yet another reality television show.
No.
