Here’s some Gosselin news you all probably won’t be tired of – they’re getting the Law & Order treatment. L&O is famous for using “ripped from the headlines” stories to inspire some of their own plotlines. The thing is, normally those stories are about crimes. Which neither Kate nor Jon Gosselin have committed, unless you count her haircut or his fashion sense. Sometimes the Law & Order stories follow the real versions fairly closely, and other times the real version is merely a jumping off point. That’s the case with the Gosselin version. L&O’s version is about a dad who’s raising ten adopted special needs children and gets a reality show after his wife is murdered.

Jon and Kate Gosselin’s public war of words has inspired an episode of Law & Order. The Oct. 16 episode – titled “Reality Bites” – centers around a reality show, Larry Plus 10, which documents the struggles of a single dad who’s raising 10 adopted special needs kids by himself — after his wife, Joy, is bludgeoned to death.

According to the New York Post, “Detectives Lupo and Bernard (Jeremy Sisto, Anthony Anderson) grow suspicious when it’s revealed that Joy Johnson wasn’t totally on board with doing the show — she feared for her kids’ privacy — and that Larry, a real estate developer deeply in debt, signed the lucrative Larry Plus 10 contract the day after his wife’s murder.”

Adding to the drama: Larry has a girlfriend — the young babysitter. There’s also a character named Belinda Alvarez (Nina Lisandrello) — who resembles octuplet mother Nadya Suleman — who has 10 kids (via in-vitro fertilization) and is competing with the Johnsons to get the show.

“I was hoping for Octuplets, but God decided to bestow that blessing on Nadya Suleman,” the character tells detectives. She says she wanted her show to be “like Jon & Kate, you know, only less depressing” — and is furious after losing out to the Johnsons, the Post reports.

Octomom! All the crazy multiples are in this one. I know there’s a lot of burnout over the ubiquitous Gosselins, but for those interested here’s a quick recap of other Gosselin news. We mentioned earlier this week that Kate has accused Jon of taking $230,000 out of one of their joint bank accounts. The hearing over the issue has been postponed because the judge’s wife passed away, so we’ll be hearing them bicker, fight, and argue over that one for a lot longer. The funny thing is that it’s a matter of facts. It’s not an issue of opinion – either Jon did or did not take it. Kate has clear proof that he did – a letter from the bank detailing the nine times Jon illegally withdrew money from their account at Susquehanna Bank. Yet he keeps saying “No no no” over and over again, as though he thinks if he says it enough, it’ll become true. Kate wants Jon held in contempt of court and have him forced to sell his luxury cars to pay back the money, which I would absolutely love. It would be so satisfying to see his early midlife crisis play toys getting towed away.

Jon has been foolishly making the rounds on the nightly entertainment shows, trying to plead his case. Problem is he doesn’t have a leg to stand on. Hey buddy here’s an idea: if you don’t like it that the public reviles you, don’t do contemptible things! Jon had his stones stuffed in a sack by Nancy Grace last night, and while I normally can’t stand her, I was yelling “right on, you go girl!” in my head. I would love to see Jon locked in a room with Nancy Grace for an hour and see what she’d do to him. For some reason Real Housewives of New York City’s Bethenny Frankel was there beating up on him as well, and while I don’t see how that was relevant, I still enjoyed it.

He also stopped by Entertainment Tonight to spread the lies further, claiming he only took out $22,000 from the joint bank account. Jon did take out $22,000 (you can see the legal papers here) on September 29th. But he also made eight other large withdrawals – totaling $230,000 – just like Kate Gosselin always said. If we’d been measuring how long Jon’s nose has grown in the last few weeks, I think we’d be somewhere near the Redwood by now. He also claimed only one of the eight kids is upset about the divorce. That might be true for now, because younger children tend to deal with divorce better than older children. There are different theories as to why, but I think they’re more adaptable at that age. But give them time Jon. Just keep being you, keep caring only about you and your luxury cars and European vacations, and I guarantee you they will be upset. Then act confused in twenty years when none of them will speak to you. But it’s worth it, because you thought your hair plugs looked so sexy in that fancy car, right?

Here’s Jon looking confused at the airport yesterday. There are probably numbers on that paper – they lead to frustration for Jon. Images thanks to Fame Pictures .
