Jon and Kate Plus Eight Minus Jon

After getting them on the air, ruining their relationship, and exploiting a family tragedy for ratings, TLC has fired one half of Jon and Kate.

From Entertainment Weekly:

Well, it’s finally happened. TLC has yanked Jon Gosselin from Jon & Kate Plus Eight — excuse me, “adapted to the changing Gosselin family,” as this morning’s press release says — and henceforth, we can watch the new, new, new Kate Plus Eight...TLC says in its statement that the new show will "recalibrate the program to keep pace with the family… and Kate as a newly single mother raising 5 year-old sextuplets and 8 year-old twins."

I don't mean to lay all the blame on this never-ending public debacle on TLC. Jon Gosselin has proved himself to be a tool of epic proportions. While they were still married, everybody seemed to think Kate was a total bitch and Jon was the classic put-upon husband, but now thanks to a ridiculous fashion sense, a very public mid-life crisis, and lots of gallivanting around with younger women while you have eight kids at home, you idiot, it doesn't matter if they're with their mom or their nannies, just think about how this is going to affect them, I'm frankly glad to have him out of the show.

And I'm sure he is too -- he only ever expressed reluctance for having his life turn into a media circus. (On that point, who can blame him?)

And, to bring things full circle, I'm sure TLC is, not least because the show rhymes better without him.
