Octomom About To Sign Deal for Reality Show
TV Ideas
He says the ideas they’ve heard are similar – producers want to follow the same pattern of other reality shows, with episodes chronicling such themes as Suleman learning to drive a 14-passenger van, going on a date or having a big family Thanksgiving or Christmas.
He says that although a deal could be signed within the next couple of weeks, production would not start until the babies are a little older. So far, seven of the eight octuplets have come home, and Suleman goes to the hospital every day to visit Jonah, who at 4 lbs., 6 oz., is still too small to be released.
“For the most part, the idea is generally to follow her and her family around when the babies get a little older,” Czech says, adding that the amount of money Suleman would earn, and how long the show runs for, would depend upon the ratings.

I will never watch that disgusting woman’s show. She needs a therapist, not a tv show.

I have to agree. This woman has played the system beautifully. She knew exactly how to get what she wanted and she went for it. I feel truly sorry for those children because their is no way that she can take care of them all (providing the emotional and physical necessities for healthy development) I also have no desire to watch this woman’s show. Anyone ever thought about the fact that she had absolutely no problem using the system before having the octuplets(disability). So what she just decided that it wasn’t good enough for her. I hope they make her pay all that money back because if you are able to raise 14 children then you should definitely be able to work (at least physically although you probably wouldn’t have time). So Ms. Suleman CONGRATULATIONS on your fame and fortune I just hope that you put your children first. And considering your track record I am sure that this will not happen.
