Or when they complain about spending 4 hours cleaning a fridge only to have a brand new one the next episode.

Its so funny that you said this, Lynette. My son (7) and I watch this show every monday together (yeah, he's weird like that lol). And just a few weeks ago Cameron said, after the show was over, "I like the old episodes where they just play at home and go to the dentist and stuff". And I agree. It was more fun to get a glimpse into the life of this "extra-ordinary" family struggling to keep it all together. Now they're just spoiled brats running around in a big fancy house and getting things for free left-andight. Its not as appealing as it used to be.
Oh, and I have to say that Kate's appearance is bugging me these days too. She used to look like every other mom. Her hair wasn't always perfect, she often appeared on camera in her robe and slippers, and she dressed in jeans and tennis shoes. Now she looks perfectly coiffed at all times. Her hair and makeup are flawless, her skin in obviously been tanned, and her wardrobe looks like something out of a magazine. It bugs me.
