Jon and Kate, Minus Jon, Minus Divorce?

Just after it was announced that Jon Gosselin was fired from his show and it will be renamed “Kate Plus 8,” Jon Gosselin announced he doesn’t want to divorce Kate anymore. A shocked In Touch Weekly reports:

“Shockingly, today, Jon submitted a document to a Pennsylvania court-approved arbitrator, which he hopes will suspend his split with Kate for 90 days. He explains, “This will enable Kate and me to restore our relationship as cooperative parents and to open up our lines of communication. I hope that she will be as receptive and enthusiastic as I am to do what is best for our family.” He also pleaded with her to set aside their anger so they can start interacting amicably. “I would like to get back with Kate as a partner in parenting,” Jon tells In Touch. “Even though we were heading for a divorce, it appeared that Kate had been suffering from this divorce as much as I had. That’s why I asked my attorney to put the brakes on this divorce so I could try to regain control over the future of our family. So Kate and I could join on a cooperative course that would benefit our family — not destroy it.”

This show wasn’t popular because these people are admirable. The only entertainment factors were watching their adorable little tardlets hit each other, scream, bump into walls, and chew on rags. And the topper was watching these people deal with their scientific experiments as they get bigger and louder, and watch these two progressively hate and wish death upon each other more with each passing day. So, yeah, get back together = get your ratings back. Good move, I say.
