TLC to end “Jon & Kate” in November. America Cheers.

TLC, realizing that their hit reality show Jon and Kate Plus 8 really ended months ago when the couple filed for divorce, has to decided to officially wrap up the reality series next month.

The show, which featured Jon and Kate Gosselin, their twins and sextuplets was TLC’s biggest hit for several years. The first signs of marital trouble was first brought to light when photos were taken of husband Jon  at a bar in March, partying with college girls, and saying that he might be getting a divorce.

Since the couple filed for the divorce in June, the media focus has been on Jon Gosselin’s antics: his college-age girlfriend, his friendship with fellow douchebag Michael Lohan, his talk-show circuit rounds, and his suspension of the divorce procedings a few weeks ago.

Earlier this month TLC, tiring of the less than wholesome attention Jon was drawing to their family-centered reality show, decided to change the focus of the show, renaming it “Kate Plus 8,” saying that Jon would appear on the show, but not on a regular basis. The network’s decision prompted him to demand a halt to all filming of the reality show, because he felt that the filming was harmful to his children. Days later Jon cleared hundreds of thousands of dollars from the couples joint bank account, leaving Kate with $1,000. This week the court ordered Jon to return $180,000 to the account by October 26th.

Yesterday the New York Post reported that TLC has chosen to piece together a few more episodes of the series from footage already filmed, with a finale airing in November. TLC has is also suing Jon Gosselin for breach of contract, saying that he has been paid to appear on other shows and that he has made unauthorized disclosures about the show.

Kate Gosselin is also considering taking legal action again her estranged husband after reading an article on Radar Online, in which her babysitter claims he hacked into his wife’s email account, phone and online bank account.
