United Bates of America is a TLC show about Gil and Kelly Bates, and their 19 kids - not to be confused with the family from the show '19 Kids and Counting', they're two different families.
Those two families are like clones of each other, though. They look extremely similar in appearance, act the same way, and have the same beliefs. Oh yeah, they're all homeschooled just like the Duggar kids on 19 Kids and Counting are.
They live in a farmhouse in rural Tennessee, and the boys run a tree-cutting business along with their dad. The oldest son, Zach is dating.. whoops, I mean "courting" a girl named Sarah.
Gil & Kelly-Jo Bates have 19 kids:
Zachary
Michaella
Erin
Lawson
Nathan
Alyssa
Tori
Trace
Carlin
Josie
Katie
Jackson
Warden
Isaiah
Addallee
Ellie
Callie-Anna
Judson
Jeb

1. Tori Bates is hot, too bad she's saving herself for marriage.
2. The difference between Michelle Duggar and Kelly Bates is.. nothing.
3. Erin Bates is the next Mozart.
4. The Bates took a vote on what they wanted their show to be called, and the majority liked 'United Bates of America'.

Get the faux-batemug. n. Very inferior debate grade. A failing mark given to an orator who prevaricates, sputters, interrupts and fakes a seizure to halt the procedure.

So Chuck got a D-bate last night. Again.
Yeah. He should know not to go up against that fine woman of his. She will always trump his ass.
