Jon & Kate Minus One

TLC announced today that it will relaunch Jon & Kate Plus Eight in November without paunchy hostage Jon Gosselin. The newly rebranded Kate Plus Eight will focus on Kate's travails as a single mother, though Jon, who is attempting to stall the divorce, will still make occasional cameo appearances. TLC also announced that it will be developing another Kate Gosselin project for next year (she's got so much spare time!), though details on that one are scarce. Is it too much to hope for a Bachelorette hybrid with Kate surrounded by burly bodyguards pitching woo? [THR, PopEater]
