Did anyone watch this show last night?

I'm ashamed to say I did. I got sucked in. They seem slightly more well adjusted than the Duggars. They at least give their kids decent names. They still have the ridiculous adherence to gender roles and then make fun of those who don't fit in, though. That pissed me off. "Oh, the blond one CAN'T COOK! She better find a husband who'll take her out to eat!"

I *loved* when they went to the grandparents house and all the grandparents just lambasted the whole fam damily in their interviews. Fucking hilarious. You could tell they were all "Why the FUCK do you have so many kids, boy?! You stupid?! They know what causes that nowadays!"

OK Momo - I saw this show on TWOP boards and thought it was about Jason Batemen. I know that makes no sense, but I was really confused. I got sidetracked and never clicked on the thread till now.

So it's another family of freaks/multiples.

It's the Bates Family - they're another Quiverfull family that are friends with the Duggars. They've been on the Duggar show a few times and I guess they managed to finagle their own show. They just had their 19th kid (so they're tied with Ma Duggar).

They didn't start out that way (looking to be a birthing factory) did they? I saw some article that they thought they would only have a few kids. What changed their mind? That damn Quiverfill church?

I have seen them on the Duggars and thought that they were less charismatic and dumber than the willfully ignorant Duggars.

Damn...I've gotta tape this one. Yeah, the Bates are as creepy as the Duggars...even moreso maybe. And Ma Duggar's jaw looks like it's not attached to her head. It flops around like Jacob Marley.

Instead of United Bates we should call him Master Bates. ( yes I am really a 12 year old boy.)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

What weirds me out about this family is that at least 2 or 3 of their kids are over the age of 20. None of them are married. Now out in Normal Land that's not a big deal. But this is the land Fundie Christianity where they need to marry them off before they get 'in trouble.' So why aren't those kids married yet? My guess is - because they're free daycare for Ma and Pa Bates

How long before TLC does a Happily Ever After Bates Marries Duggar special?

I don't think it'll be long now! Jana can marry the Bates eldest and John-David can marry the next eldest Bates (who is a girl - and can cook! Whew!).
