After much speculation of the show ending, or being called "Kate Plus 8" instead, the series finale of “Jon and Kate Plus 8” finally aired on Nov. 23. TLC gave the show a one hour time spot from 9-10 p.m.
The show opened with Kate talking about the fact that the children got to do and see things they otherwise wouldn’t have if it wasn’t for the show. She seemed very grateful for the show and also very sad to see that it was ending. She said her goals are different than Jon’s and her number one priority is and always will be her children. Kate said that she is stronger than she ever thought possible and now knows who her true friends are. She never envisioned how the show would end, but she thinks it ending now is too soon. She also mentioned the fact that the children do not know about Jon's girlfriend.
Jon spoke of the fact that he met Kate when he was 20, got married at 22, had children at 23 and only felt free after the divorce. He admitted that he still has some growing up to do, takes some of the blame now and will be there for the children no matter what.
