Happy Labor Day!

Happy Labor Day to our readers in the United States and Canada! Enjoy a relaxing, rain-free day with family and friends.














Reminder: Tune in to TLC tonight at 9PM EST/8PM CST for two new episodes of United Bates of America.

Sept 3, 9:00 pm
United Bates of America: New Editions
Gil and Kelly Jo have decided to take on some new tenants: chickens! Despite past failed attempts at keeping chickens, they're determined to make their land productive. Will the family finally get the bounty of eggs they've been hoping for?
Sept 3, 9:30 pm
United Bates of America: Bates Plus 12
When you have a family of 21, what's a few more house guests added to the mix? The Bates get a visit from their friends the Paines who are a family of 12. Later, we get a lesson on dating.

    Hi Alaina,

    There was originally going to be an announcement, but TLC removed the part of the episode summary that mentioned it. If there is an announcement, we will post about it. :)

    I just adore the Bates. They are so unscripted. Gil is a hoot.

    I thought the oldest Bates son was in a courtship. Why haven't they said anything about this on the program?
