I’ve made no secret of my lack of love for Mr. Jon Gosselin. I used to watch Jon & Kate + 8 here and there, and like everyone with eyes thought he was the most hen-pecked man on earth. She was for sure bitchy and mean, and he was just like, ‘Yes, ma’am.’

I can’t say I ever thought he’d find his balls, but when he did, it appears he lost his mind. It’s clear Gosselin got into his position in the first place because he isn’t someone capable of making really healthy, adult decisions. So now that he’s trying to reclaim himself, which is a good thing, he’s doing it in the grossest, most immature, and scummiest manner ever – i.e., porking everything that looks at him, making sure every fart of his is on TV, stealing his wife’s/family’s money, suddenly deciding to pull the plug on the show for the good of his kids the second the network changed the focus off him and onto Kate, etc., etc., etc. The list really goes on and on.

In short, he is the quintessential kid who says, ‘You don’t like me? Then I’m going to take my ball and go home!’

I wish for them and their army of kids that they could get their crap together, but truthfully I can admit that I adore watching the drama. Thus I was thrilled today to see that TLC (the network that airs Jon & Kate + 8) is suing Jon Gosselin for breach of contract. The lawsuit, which does not include estranged wife Kate Gosselin, alleges that he has been violating the terms of his contract, which names him an exclusive employee of the network, by appearing on other networks for pay and disclosing information about the show.

Time to pay the piper, my boy.
