Kate Gosselin: Too Hot For TV?

By PopEater Staff Posted Dec 24th 2009 09:25AM

Kate Gosselin filmed a pilot for a new talk show, but high-level executives reportedly shelved the project, deciding the TV mom is too controversial for their airwaves. A source told RadarOnline.com that the show, with co-hosts Paula Deen, Lee Woodruff and Rene Syler, is still being shopped around to other buyers but it doesn't stand much of a chance.

The Momlogic pilot has been described as 'The View' for working moms, tackling issues like teen pregnancy along with lighter gabbing. Apparently, Gosselin was not only too edgy for the executives' taste, she was simply "not ready" for a full-time hosting job.

Food Network star Paula Deen was the intended star of the project, and exces were concerned that Gosselin's year in the tabloid's would upset the balance. "There was a lot of arguing," the source told RadarOnline.

Fear not - Gosselin will be back on your TV sets before long. Though TLC has yet to finalize the concept, the cable network has committed to a new show starring Gosselin in the spring.

Why doesn't she just try to find a real job? Maybe TLC should do a show on actual working parents taking care of eight or more kids so people like the Gosselins will see what real life is actually like. That would be a first. She has a nursing degree, why not use? There are alot of people out there the can't afford to go to school or can't get in because of a waiting list that would really appreciate that degree and use it. Kate's too self absorbed and lazy to actually want to work. The kids are in school, so what is her excuse? She needs to stay off television once and for all. She sucks!!!

Gosselin isn't too controversial. She's too boring. I thought that TV time was expensive? Why opt for more brain rot? There's too much of that available as it is.

By Whateverlolawants

Who wants to watch a self-absorbed rotten to the
core bonafide "B...tch"???
She was ALWAYS too mean to Jon....and that always
made me wish I could slap Kate!!

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WHEN WILL YOU HATERS GET OF KATE'S BACK AND ATTACK ALL THE REAL EPLOITERS OF THE "LITTLE" PEOPLE AND THEIR KIDS. MATT AND AMY OBVIOUSLY HATE EACH OTHER AND THEIR KIDS ARE AND HAVE SUFFERED BECAUSE OF IT. THEN THERE'S THE MOTHER OF NINETEEN KIDS AND THE TABLE FOR TWELVE, THE LITTLE CHOCOLATIERS AND NOW LO' AND BEHOLD IF THEY DON'T HAVE ONE ABOUT FOUR BIG FAT BLACKS EATING THEMSELVES TO DEATH. GIVE KATE A BREAK.

Let's all step back just a little and consider the culture that makes celebrities of non-entities. That, folks, is a whole lot more disturbing than the antics of this sorry-ass pair and their brood.

By Maureen

Why do any of these morons think just because they irresponsibly have a litter of kids they deserve adoration, fame, and fortune? There have been people who have had a hell of a lot more kids than the Gosselins, or the "big poos Octomoron". Get these people off the air, and send them back to the Projects from which they came! wolfgangpitbullingtonII!

anything with paula deen in it is a defenite LOSER. what a waste of air time

By Emily

I would not watch anything with Kate Goselin in it. She and her husband were nothing more than child exploiters...yes maybe they didn't exploit them in the criminal sense...but they definitely skewed their childhood memories and experiences and I would bet that their marriage falling apart was greatly impacted by this show..all in the name of "drama" and the almighty buck. I know it's the viewing public that watch these kinds of shows but to me it is just low grad voyeurism and also the "reality" is not very "real" on these shows. And I don't see how she is any kind of role model for "working moms". real working moms don't generally make six figures and live their lives under a spotlight...That's why I also laugh when I hear of these celebs saying they are able to juggle career and motherhood rather easily...yeah..they can afford to hire full time help to take care of the kids, the house, and anything else that needs taking care of..most working moms are not that lucky. I never did get the popularity of Jon and Kate plus 8 and never had any interest in watching it or any of the other so called "reality shows".

By Sandi

And ... who came up with the nomenclature "reality show"??? There's nothing real about unscripted TV. I don't know many families who have celebrity chefs stop by to prepare food or have custom motorcycles made to order right on their doorsteps from the TV gurus, etc. That's not real life ... it's TV life without quality production is all.

By Danielle

I am sick and tired of the Gosslin's. They've had their 15 minutes of fame now move on with your life.

By MIddle America

Spare me this endless drivel of so called "entertainment". We've now instilled the mentality of all of these "brainless" publicity seekers in hope of an easy buck. (GAG)

By sandy

CAN'T stand Kate, I wish she would just go away. I saw her on the View and she was a dud. Can't imagine her with her own show.

By mondo

Is TLC lacking good writers to put Kate back on the air after her all the negative feed back from the last show ? What does TLC really mean... The Loser Channel ? Get better material or TLc will soon be a thing of the past.

By l carr

Kate Gosslin is a good mother and woman we need more like her. Jon should have stood his ground with her and she would have backed off being the strong one. Never the less if she hosted a talk show I would watch intently, because I trust her and I would bet alot of other people would too.

By Bob

I don't think that even Tiger would hit that.

By sandi

I can't imagine anything more painful than trying to watch a talk show with Paula Deen and Kate! I wouldn't even watch if it was Paula Deen solo. Too much Paula already.

By ronnie

who are these people -- why are they in our vocabulary? go away -- go back to your lives. having a 'batch' of kids doesn't entitle one to fame and fortune.
take care of your family and disappear!!

By PinkTaters

What do ya'll expect? White trash viewers like watching people like themselves parade around pretending they're somebody. Kate is overpaid WHITE TRASH!!!! Poor kids. They're such brats and don't stand a chance. They were sweet once.
