MAIN; Pop Culture Reality TV Jon and Kate Plus 8

How many perfect parents are out there? This couple admits to not being anywhere near perfect. Jonathan "Jon" and Kate Gosselin are the proud mommy and daddy to eight beautiful children.

The first two are twins, Cara Nicole and Madelyn Kate "Mady", who were born on October 8, 2000. Then come the sextuplets: Alexis Faith, Hannah Joy, Aaden Jonathan, Collin Thomas, Leah Hope, and Joel Jonathan born on May 10, 2004.

Every Monday night at 9pm ET on TLC we get to watch this very busy family manage the details of daily living. There is not really anything that can be done simply when you add children to the mix, never mind eight children!

Jon and Kate speak openly about the hardships having eight children can create. They narrate the episodes with stories of the children's personalities, letting you in on each one of the little "angels." It is clear that these parents know and love each child, and each other, tremendously.

Watch just how crazy life can be. Then count your blessings!
