Sneak Peek! 'Kate Plus 8' Finale
Reality TV mom Kate Gosselin talked with "Extra's" AJ Calloway about the series finale of her TLC show "Kate Plus 8," saying, "I'm sad it's the last episode of our show."

Even though the show is done, Gosselin told Calloway she still wants to keep doing TV. "I'd like to stay in TV to do a talk show or anything in the media. I feel very comfortable here. It's been working for us."
How about returning to her previous profession as a nurse? "With eight kids and the cost of daycare, it's not a feasible option for me anymore. My babysitter would make more than I would."
Gosselin also responded to her ex, Jon, and his recent comment to RumorFix.com was that she should return to "a simple life." Kate said, "I don't think he is in a position to give me advice. I need to make decisions for the nine of us. If he works a normal job that suits him, great."
But looking for a new job means Gosselin has no time for a new relationship. "I'll have less time. My new job is finding a job -- I work before I play."
There is one thing Kate is doing right away; she's launching a website called KatePlusMy8.com. "The fans are devastated," explained Gosselin, so she wants to keep them updated on her family.
The finale of "Kate Plus 8" airs Monday at 9:00 PM on TLC.
