Kate Gosselin's return to television with the recent Dancing With the Stars was only the beginning. If you've been missing Kate and dancing isn't what you had in mind, you are in luck - TLC is launching two Gosselin starring vehicles in the coming year. (sigh.) No word on whether or not Jon will be participating, but put your money on 'Not Likely.' The prevailing wisdom is that he signed a sweet settlement deal with TLC that will compensate him for not interfering with future projects. (Since he has filed for custody of his children as of this week, it looks like that settlement may already be at risk.)
The first project is called "Twist of Kate" and will feature Gosselin answering fan letters and spreading her domestic diva wisdom. When she's not dispensing her learnings, she'll be on the road trying out real jobs that she knows nothing about. It's not your imagination, these concepts really don't have anything to do with one another.
The next project is, you guessed it, Kate Plus 8. Yes, the kids will be back - but with limits. The new Kate Plus 8 will be a series of specials that look at Kate's new life as a single parent of 8 children. On the odd chance that Jon wins custody, the show will probably be canceled. Sorry. Jon Plus 8 just doesn't have the same ring.

Doc, does it ever perturb you that you share both a name and its spelling with a huge douche? ;)
