Since its season one premiere on New Year's Day, "Bringing Up Bates" is the highest-rated series in UP's history. The reality series takes a fresh look on the ever-changing family dynamics of Gil and Kelly Jo Bates and their 19 kids, aged 2 to 26 and now three grandchildren (including the newest addition, baby Carson!). The 14-episode second season is currently still in production on-location in Tennessee. In the all-new episodes, produced in association with Figure 8 Films ("19 Kids & Counting"), viewers will see more of this tight-knit, uncommon Tennessee family where daily chaos is multiplied exponentially - but so are the joyful and poignant moments that life can bring.
