TLC CANCELS ‘KATE PLUS 8’

TLC's fascination with Kate Gosselin and her bountiful brood has come to an end: The network has canceled "Kate + 8."

"TLC has decided not to renew another season of Kate + 8," the network said Monday in a statement.

Kate, her ex-husband Jon Gosselin and their eight children spearheaded the multiples-movement on TV back in 2007 and helped solidify the Discovery-owned cable network in the ratings with "Jon & Kate + 8," and its follow-up "Kate + 8," the name it took on in its sixth season.
