Jon & Kate Plus 8 scares Troy Patterson in many ways, too.
I like this article a lot—“At least when George and Martha invite guests over in Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, they have the decency to offer a catharsis”— but I really wish he talked about their body language “before this [adulterous] fiasco went down”; the stuff they were telling each other wordlessly made me want to hide under my bed for ever having thoughts of marriage and lots of kids. But then I guess talking about their unloving exchanges would imply that one was actually watching it before it became one’s job as a journalist to partake in the collective, inevitable OMG.
