A Plea to TLC about their "too real" reality TV shows.

Like many people, I've watched Jon & Kate +8.

The fascination comes from a watching couple who struggled to get pregnant find themselves with a set of twins, then a set of sextuplets. Thank you TLC for highlighting reality at it finest. It was a great show. There were the couple's arguments and such, but to be honest, the reality of 8 children is no easy task. I only have 3 and some days i'm taxed like I have 10.

But, after all the tabloid accusations, the infidelity stories, and last Monday night's premiere, it's time to end the show. They have to. The camera angles have changed. In every shot that may have Jon and Kate in it, they're looking for a tense moment, a wrong move, a mean spirited comment. It isn't going to be about the children anymore. It'll be about how the show reflects the media's portrayal.

End it for the kids. It was obvious that Mady and Cara are helping mom out in a new way. Dad's not around, so they've stepped in to replace his presence. They're doing it honestly, but eventually they'll come to understand whats going on. When they are all older do you think they'll resent having a DVD set of their parents marriage dissolving before the world's eyes!?These are REAL people, with REAL emotions, and REAL issues that so many go through in a very private way. But enough is enough.

The show has taken a turn, I literally cried throughout the episode. Cried when one of the birthday girls told her daddy she missed him. This reality has become too real and too sad. It's not the same show anymore, it can't be. Kate's tears, no matter how her makeup looked, were real. I wouldn't be disappointed if that was the premiere and the finale of the show, it has to end now. TLC, let Jon and Kate deal with their family issues in private, do it for the kids!
